Pretty good! I'd like to be a kid like that... bouncing around, jumping, skiing as if there were no tomorrow...

Yes, it's my oldest son. He started skiing a age 3. Started Tele last season (2-3 times) for a couple of rides but he really switched this season. He loves it, even in bumps. The transition was easy at age 8. When the kid skies well and is strong enough, he catches the tele turn quite easily.

One of my friends started his two girls on tele, but their progress is slower.

Won't be there friday, but will saturday and sunday. Cheers !

:D Aren't comps too stiff ? There's a pair of 24.5 on eBay now at a good price.

Thanks for the kind words !
