you might have better luck here: telemarktips.com go to the talk forum - tele turnaround category.

geez, scott; i would think that's something you'd enjoy!

i was at work, dude! work at night so i can ski all day.

a number of them don't give a shit about learning technique as long as they can get down steep terrain somehow. i've had kids congratulate me for NOT taking snowboarding lessons. then i tell them i have and they're not impressed anymore.

only 493.3 ... guess i need to go lift some weights ... geez, i actually found that entertaining!.

there's nothing wrong with cross-dressing.

nice. guess i know what shovel NOT to recommend to friends ...

chili in a bread bowl f'ing rocks!

the squish pub's tuna is really good. yummers!!! i think i will be having some in a few months ...

i really don't get what the big deal is about that place. i could think of 50 other places i'd rather go spend some time. but if you like to bike around the same terrain for miles on end ... go for it.

second ground fall ever. ouch!

i'm with snoboy and i only live 2 hours from moab. btw, i've heard the stevens bc has been rockin'.

a big rare and tender hunk o' meat!

what the hell are they doing to my poor innocent distel up in the 'ham?

would be cool if they made one that measured both ascent AND descent. just kidding ... but it would definitely be more useful if they had an alarm or two on it. i know i'm being picky now.

sounds like you had a boot fit problem. or needed some climbing wires. or ...

i definitely use the loop. why waste gear?

i had some great visuals just reading this!

pretty much, jayb. when i took my avy class one of our instructors actually told us we weren't telemark skiers; we were "freeheel skiers". he said real telemark skiers ski on straight skis without metal edges where the telemark turn is the only way to really turn them.

it'd be nice if suunto just made a simple altimeter that wasn't bigger than my wrist.

man, that was long. "ski always!"

let me know if you ever need an ice partner. i'm just over in t-ride ...

rumr, i feel your pain to some extent. of all people, you shouldn't be relegated to climbing on plastic. what a sad use of your heaven-sent talent! hopefully life will calm down and give you a break soon ...

what'd you say, rumr?
