The results were ... interesting. I found them too heavy for climbing in deep snow as well as anything beyond "survival" turning on downhills. Then again, I'm not much of a telemarker. They were decent for just straight ahead kick + glide. Still on the heavy side though. Oh and they are super cool looking imo.
Maybe they would be better with beefier bindings, though I still hav
Thanks for the info Montrealer! By the way, If you are interested in selling those 2 pairs of Asnes skis, I'd be in for trying them out and i'd bet lil'cliffy would too! I'm in Rimouski and have friends in Montreal who could pick up if that makes things any easier! PS: Let me know if ever you go up to the Chic-Chocs, I'm on the way up!
I live for the Telemark arc....The feeeeeeel.....I ski miles to get to a place where there is guaranteed snow to do the deal....TM

We'll let it slide this time Thanks for the info and welcome to the forum.
I concur 3+ kilos is too heavy for any leather boots!

Heh, gonna keep em for future experiments, but if my wife ever gets on my case about my collection, I'll get back to you!
Would love to one day make the trip to the Chic-Chocs, I've seen/heard some great things.
