You should know that a snowmobile will get you up and down with more efficiency than AT so you can more quickly get back to your wimmen and prematurely ejaculate yet again. Well said Tele_nut It's funny how all the tele skiers I know, some of whom are pretty good, start parallel turnin when things get tough. As for tele sking being artistic, well I just laid down some art in my toilet. Come on over before I flush it down the drain. Quote

mattp Posted November 19, 2003 Posted November 19, 2003 I often use the parallel turn when I'm tired, or when in some kind of deepness, or when I'm just on hardpack and feeling lazy, true. But there are some kinds of breakable crust and other horror show material that I find the telemark is better. And I'm sorry to say it, but although you are much faster than I am, you are no Jean Claude Killy, Mr. K. If you wanna look pretty on your skis, you're going to have to get your head out of the toilet and go back to ski school. Quote

Coz they can. I've never seen a bondage skier lay out some sexy, artisitic curves when the going gets good though... More's the loss for them. Quote
Thinker Posted November 19, 2003 Posted November 19, 2003 That's the Kurt we know and love. He's just makin' room for a little PC libation before he heads out. Quote

Actually, I occasionally do tele like turns on rolling stuff when it isn't worth lockin heels down. Matt, racing takes constant coaching. I ski good enough to keep up with quite a few burned out racers though. Quote
