beeeweee , thanks for the comments, so it sounds like it's best to just use the track skis when skiing on track. Maybe I'll just need to forget about the turns altogether when track skiing. By the way, waxable skis are great, I usually put so much wax also on my track skis that I rarely need to her...

@Verskis Nice to see you back. Since you’re here, what MTB knee pad are you now recommending for skiing? Bit off the topic, but I've been using the same old Gform and POC pads for years now, they've been holding up very well. I don't have any experience with newer stuff, so can't recommend anything...

That looks like the original version of the T50 with a waxable base and kicker skin attachment. The lack of info on Madshus skis is laughable. Their website is devoid of info, but they do answer emails. Look at that ad you posted, not even a picture of the bottom of the ski, lol. When I bought my M...

So what are these then? Maybe some older versions, replaced now by T50? If so, what is the difference (other than the graphics)? https://www.sport-conrad.com/en/products/madshus/panorama-m50-intelligrip-transition.html?gclid=CjwKCAiA76-dBhByEiwAA0_s9YO6gvGx0oHdKZDAMH0XeiKcE-Z5OI8E_pZ9d9dE9WZzblCnxcT...

Welcome back! The difference between the M50 and the T50 is the M50 has a recessed, integrated skin in the kick zone and the T50 is a waxable base ski with an attachment point for Madshus' Transition kicker skin that is not recessed except for the front attachment. These skis have a strong double c...

Hi! Long time away from the forums, but now I have a question that needs the great wisdom of the folks over here :) How much difference is there between the narrow waxable backcountry skis and some basic waxable track skis when skiing on tracks? Are all the backcountry skis miserably slow? The reaso...

I really like my Norrøna Falketind Hybrid Windstopper jacket ( https://www.outnorth.com/norrona/falketind-windstopper-hybrid-jacket-m-2017 ) for skiing and cold-weather mountain biking. The frontside is made from a relatively thin Windstopper soft shell, and the backside is even thinner non-membrane...

I don't know who this guy is, but he's killing it!

He's the one and only Lo-Fi from Telemark Talk!
It would be great to see more videos from him, it's been a while since the last one.

Not a picture, but couldn't find the video thread, so posting this here. One small descent on a local hill yesterday night. The snow was not very good, it was really chopped up, which made for quite challenging conditions. I'm glad I had my plastic Excursion boots instead of the Ski March leathers I...

2) Bindings: Am I right to assume that these won't work with 75mm bindings meant for plastic boots, like the Targas or the Voile Switchbacks? I guess I'd need something like the Voile 3pin or Rottefella Super Telemark? thanks! Should work just fine with all the 75mm bindings. The duckbill is slight...
