Re: Questions for telemark athletes

Allen, you will have to show me the finer points of B-Tele sometime. I utilize rotation, not in the B-Tele manner.

Re: Tele Technique Question: what do I do with my toes!

Even my F1-Race is pretty stiff. To tell you the truth, I’m not sure I had the BOF firmly on the ski. I can tell you I was definitely edging the trailing ski at speed, and that the Vermont blacks are pretty steep. What I was really concentrating on, was driving the knee of the trailing ski into the ...

Re: Tele Technique Question: what do I do with my toes!

On my trailing foot my toes are curled in as my pinky toe is driving the edge of the ski into the snow! Only said slightly in jest, as my toes are edging. Riding lifts, skiing the groomed in firm conditions a couple weeks ago in Vermont, I burned up my thighs and my calves skiing too to bottom and r...

Re: Atomic RT86: Persevere or Explore a New Setup?

If you like a softer ski better with AT bindings, I definitely believe you need to get on a softer ski for Telemark. I can’t ski Telemark on my now ancient mid fat alpine skis, and I ripped some really challenging terrain on them with fixed heels. Telemark skiing is more two footed, your ski needs t...

Re: Did The New TXPro Just Drop?

Montana St Alum Yes, what I am calling range of motion, I am referring to walk mode. As far as the TX Comp, Dostie said it is being discontinued. The guys that like the Comps, on BCT are buying new pairs of Comps now. They mention a couple of Euro retailers, if you needed names I could search it up...

Hey Mr. I,
How did you manage to get long forest skis to your door? Was shipping really expensive?
