Awesome

Einfach herrlich 😍

I wound up with a pair of those Rossi Chamois skis in a trade years ago. I’ve started using them with a low T1 Terminator, and I can downhill them a little without hurting myself. Nice to switch things up, not ski the same gear every time.

Much more natural way of skiing than astronaut like skiers of nowdays

EUREKA!

Wow, what an excellent timepiece of American Telemark skiing history this is! I was one of the early 1980s Telemark skiers too. To put it into perspective, none of us really knew what we were doing. We looked at a couple of old photos and read books about the telemark turn, but there were very few instructors for telemark skiing in the 1980s. It was all new and a few people were just trying to do what they had seen or heard. The boots were ankle cut leather lace-ups. The bindings were three-pin. The skis were more skinny than they needed to be and with a stiff arched camber for waxing and touring. In short, the equipment was exceedingly challenging and the techniques were mostly self-taught. Compared with the Telemark equipment of the 1980's, today's Telemark equipment very nearly skis all by itself.

Oh my god, I’m having a nostalgia orgasm/overdose. No joke, I’m actually fighting back tears watching and listening to this.

The narrator couldn’t be more right about corn snow. The right consistency really is magic. Especially on tele gear. Not sure why.

6:44 my dude in the white jacket! Over-poling with the uphill hand, like a true tele skier!!! Lol, I spent so much of my first season doing that, my wrists still hurt!

First, it was “cables” made of birch roots around the heel. Then simple three-pins, then three-pins with steel cables, then 75mm norm with the introduction of springs, and now NTN. I do love the history, and I’ll be rocking my older 75mm set-up until they fall apart, but that said… Can’t beat NTN. Offers the most versatility and freedom.

First time.... Mountains Totes Gebirge, Austria?

Hey there groovy telemarkers

Groovy, God bless Colorado (Aspen can get stuffed)

How could anyone possibly thumbs down this??!? Between the moog dominate soundtrack and, well, everything else - it’s kind of perfect. I mean, telemarking is stupid, but I certainly can’t quit…

Wow! Where in the world did you find this video? Very cool. Very nostalgic. I was there: telemark skiing in the 1980s. Long stiff skinny skis with no side-cut. Three-pin bindings. Leather ankle high boots with laces. To be honest, even a beginner can telemark ski within an hour of practice on today's equipment. With the old gear, you really had to have your balance honed perfectly as well as timing and ability to read the topography of your lines and adjust for different conditions as you skied AND you need super strong legs/knees.

If any chance, please come to Japan again!! 👍

Great vid. What time of year was this? Thanks.

バックカントリーええや～ん😆😆😆

Most modern-day tele skiers can't ski this well even with fat skis and 4-buckle plastic boots!

I now getting into tele this year. Been asking since the 70s and need a fun new challenge. Skiing today is too fast for this guy. I love how graceful this looks.

Those skiers were amazing, considering the gear back then... straight skis and leather boots on simple 3-pin bindings.

Finally I completed my video for our 2013 Chile Ski trip in August. Be sure to view it in HD!
