All of you absolutely crushed it. This is some of the best looking and most enlivening ski footage I've seen in a while. Really looking forward to getting into the tele discipline!
this is the prettiest turn Ive ever seen! I am a long time skier/instructor at alpine, but tele turns are the prettiest turns!
Telemark skiing rocks. The best, most elegant way to go down a hill. I learned to X country ski at 40. My first downhill skis were freeheel. Everyone says "ooh, its so hard." But I have been a competitive cyclist, which gave me a physical advantage to keep trying to make tele turns. I am fifty now, and finally making linked turns. Awesome. Great video to observe.
Great skiing. Guy in green has nailed the wide stance. Instructor at 6.47 is very good. Great to watch.
When you are learning tele turns, it is no shame to bail out and make parallel turns. I learned to make tele turns on my own,, linking hockey stops and just keep going. I have a weak side and an ankle that won't turn in as readily, but I will keep at it, and this video is just perfect to get the feel of the flow of turns. So beautiful. Skiing at Stevens Pass this weekend, can't wait!
Nice video and amazing location!
Great vid. and turns! It's mid- October and after seeing this can't wait for the snow. Thx
Need Cansi to start getting telemark instructors trained for 2023!
ive had a summer of no exercise now i have to pluck up the courage to get my legs strong for teleing in the winter. nice video
awesome video!!!!!!!!
Nice work!
Great video. Turns seem a bit "mechanical" for my personal preference, but nonetheless a nice display of skill. My favorite tele turns are more relaxed and have the skiers own personal style - Less rigid. My two cents, but much respect to the skiers and great watch!
Guy in green is the most stylish for sure
I'd say the opposite. Did you watch the mogul part?
Telemark is about finding a way of enjoying your turns. Free the hell, free the mind and your spirit will soar!
All you need to do is the following:
Stay low and you will flow!
Look ahead and you will shred!
Bend at the knees, eyes in front please!!
On the slopes, go with ease!!
Some nice looking turns a few sloppy ones in there but still over all nice to watch. I never thought of them as different types of tele rather I just use what I need when I need it. Interesting to see it broken into categories. It would have been nice to also see some "old technique" What I started with a still do when the skiing gets steep which is to bend deep and get low on the skis. Not many of us left as the new gear lets you stay up high and in control
great technique guys.
Belle démonstration de telemark............
Lots of opinions about how they work their feet... I love watching the quiet upper body and pole placement that is fairly consistent throughout.
great :)
Short radius looks like a lot of extra work
The guy in green looks very smooth.
Everyone except for the guy in green, at times, had their ski very close together. Does the new style of telemark skiing have a wider stance? I`m looking at my Scarpa Terminator X Pro boots and there are large scuff marks on the scuff protector located on the inside boot area. I suspect that my skis (105mm underfoot) are too close together and when I`m moving my back ski forward, the inside edge is cutting into the inside boot.
Is my technique incorrect and should be stance be wider?
Green guy is more pro...more deep knee bends is the key with telemark.
The best way I have heard it explained is that you are basically making 2 skis into one while turning so having them really close together is normal. As for how far you drop your knee I have been told that the old style was to drop it really low while a more "modern" way is to not drop it anywhere near as much. But asking around about for some hints when I first started on I got basically a different answer from everyone as to how to do it which lead me to the conclusion there is no 100% proper way to Tele.
Not in the moguls he wasn't! But he was so big he just punched thru them like a cannonball. All the other guys looked like Jack B Nimble by comparison.
nice to see the diffrent kind of styles and looks everyone has - though we talk all about TELEMARK... I am not a pro but I dont like too much the new-school head-in-style BUT!!! Look at the guy with black clothes and WHITE helmet! (who is it???) HE has a great sense of balance, his stands are compact and most time perfectly in centre with very smooth and fast feet-reaction - VERY NICE!! (JUST a subjective point of view ;-)
Thy don't lean enough forward… the bum is sticking out. So that tey are sliding in the begining of a carve…
And they have sometimes to big distance between the feet lengthways (about a bootlength is optimal)
Having skied for almost fifty years and done telemark turns in wonderful powder and on groomed hills; These picture of turns here are not telemark turns!!! The telemark by definition is the dropping of one ski so that the downhill ski edges into the hill, and the back ski edges into the tail of the forward ski; thus one long ski or edge. What is shown here is really a modified "short swing". Try a traditional telemark turn up high on the mountain and you'll see what a beautiful turn it is!!
Too bad the snowboarders ruined all the snow already 😂
When I'm on the lift and hear that terrible SCRAPE of a snowboard going sideways my BP raises. 🤬
the worst telemark example you could get from an instructor. This atrocious head-in stand is ... atrocious, short turns are ridiculous and the carving is poor...
