Cpt.Caveman Posted January 15, 2003 Share Posted January 15, 2003 dont buy tele unless you are set on it for some reason. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
icegirl Posted January 15, 2003 Author Share Posted January 15, 2003 I used to tele a lot as a youth... Orthopedist tells me it will be better for my specific knee injury. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snoboy Posted January 15, 2003 Share Posted January 15, 2003 Wow! Someone who actually has a real reason to tele! Cool! I've got a set of Voile release plates, if you are interested PM me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
icegirl Posted January 15, 2003 Author Share Posted January 15, 2003 yeah, not JUST to show how lame I can be on the slopes also tele would be a bit better considering their alternate use will be transport in to willow creek for some ice... (to far for snowshoes) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snoboy Posted January 15, 2003 Share Posted January 15, 2003 also tele would be a bit better considering their alternate use will be transport in to willow creek for some ice...

G3 bindings, with shims. $250 OBO. call or email dougcc@climb-high.com 206.729.7196 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cpt.Caveman Posted January 16, 2003 Share Posted January 16, 2003 my opinion why tele ski when you can ride in style and technology? Either way the benies of my boots over tele boots is that I can ice climb in them. Don't carry extra set. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chelle Posted January 16, 2003 Share Posted January 16, 2003 I have a great pair of K2 shaped skis that currently have downhill bindings. And I have two pairs of downhill boots that you can check out. We already know we have the same shoe size. I'd give you a good deal. Send me a pm. I think I skied in them about 1/2 dozen times before I switched to snowbaording and never looked back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rbw1966 Posted January 16, 2003 Share Posted January 16, 2003 Either way the benies of my boots over tele boots is that I can ice climb in them. I ice climb in my T2's almost as often as my invernos. I haven't noticed a tremendous difference between the two. Then again, I am not Tomas Humar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

icegirl Posted January 17, 2003 Author Share Posted January 17, 2003 I'd love to check them out! I have a nice pair of lange boots, but always looking to upgrade... how long are the skis? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David_Parker Posted January 17, 2003 Share Posted January 17, 2003 Michelle, hate to say it, but it seems snowboarders are always looking back......and sideways.....and upsidedown! The only looking back tele skiers do is at the snowboarders postholing on traverses! Yuk-Yuk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
