- Опубліковано 19 сер 2024
- In 2018, we spent a month skiing the backcountry in Patagonia. We started in Bariloche, skiing Frey and Cerro Lopaz. We then ventured into Chile in the lakes district and skied Case Blanca, Ozorno and Villarrica. Heading South we skied Cerro Castillo before ending up in El Chalten where we skied Cerro Electrico, Comedor Franceses, Creston, Mosquito Valley and Vespiniani.
Hi guys, this is by far one of the best telemark movie ever. I'm talking not only about places and filming but mostly about the way you tell the story and feel about telemark skiing. Congrats
Thanks
Thanks appreciate it. It is a cracking place to go. But where isn't if your in the snow
very nice indeed
Courage and beauty. Grace and transcendence. Another victory for the human spirit. Your struggle is absolutely worth it. You're the reason I telemark. Thank you for making these movies!
Unbelievable story and cinematography , Hard Die Tele Skiers , hats off !!
I've alpine skied for almost 50 years. I discovered the new Rottefella Tele bindings and by next season I had the full set up. Now I have several pairs of telemark skis for all sorts of terrain.
Cero Torre killer. My favorite backpack trip. Tele even better! The notion lock the heal fix the problem, piss off. I say drop the knee, drop the sport!. If you really want to learn how to ski learn tele, no cheating in the back seat. Walking up and down the mountain, you explained it perfectly. Never give up you killed it! Tele 4 life. Well at least until I can't, then die no reason to live. Who knows who you saw ripping and who changed your life depending on where you were it could be me. Gad you found it. The turn truly is life changing, changed mine in 1995. Mark thank you for the swap of bike parts, leather boots and skis.
Thanks Trent. Loved your post
How many tele skiers does it take to change a light bulb?
4. One to put in the light bulb, and 3 to say "nice turns".
NICE TURNS!
Why do "we" tele?
I started alpine skiing in 1964. By the time I was 52, (15 years ago) I'd decided it was time to try something else (I tried snowboarding off and on for about 5 years, as my sons were avid snowboarders) and thought it was time to try tele. I was instantly addicted. I took my sons out and after one day, they were addicted as well.
There is an elegance to it that is very rewarding, aesthetically. It engages more of my brain than alpine skiing because there's just more going on, physically, dynamically, and mentally. It presents more opportunity to use it as a means of self expression. It requires a very precise fore-aft balance point - especially with a tight stance. The other great thing is no one on a chairlift ever thinks "he sucks"....they just think, "what the hell is he doing"! 😉
Brilliant. Love your story and insight. Also made me laugh. Thanks.
After twenty years of alpine skiing, racing, etc I started using my x-country skinny’s on all the piste just for the challenge. Forced my to learn the tele. Lol. Then i started doing yoga and the two were symbiotic flow. Never looked back, just up at bigger challenges.
i am having tele during school. its an actual class i go. i am going to the mountain today. super fun
What a beautiful movie, amazing scenery and shots 👏👏🔥🔥
After 20 years of only Tele skiing I decided to give it up and fix the heel this season. Well, that decision lasted just long enough to buy a new pair of Tele skis and bindings :)
Loved the video!
😂😂
👍✌️
Don’t do it
Wow! This is the best BC/Telemark video I’ve ever seen. I really appreciate your no-nonsense candid approach to telling it like it is! I also appreciate your controlled style. Too much is focused on the ‘extreme’ and speed nowadays. Nice to see the grace in your dance of turns! I also thought this was a great tour because of the work you put in to get to those turns. You’re definitely right that looked like a great road trip! Peace and have a great year!
Bill H thanks for your thoughts. I wanted to make something that a Tele skier could relate. I wanted to explain all of the pain you go through to get that incredible feeling and that it is worth it. I do yoga as well and agree with your comments. In fact if it wasn’t for yoga I don’t think I could do a Tele turn.
Visited the same areas in the Patagonia summer a few years ago. Great to see someone tele it. You did confirm one suspicion: BC skiing Patagonia is a lot of work! But a beautiful way to see it. Thank you!
your welcome
this looks so awesome!! Patagonia would be a dream right now!
literally came here to find an answer to the question she brings up at 1:12--and her answer was perfect. a, it was hilarious to me because I can't figure out why anyone would telemark. b, because who gives a shit what I think. she's clearly good at it, enjoys it, and doesn't stress about explaining it to anyone. guess I have my answer.
This is brilliant. So proud of you guys. Beautiful video, awesome adventure. Nicely done!!
Great vid connected me with tele roots in this time "Tele till your jelly"
Yay ! Another adventure to drool over.... loved it -great filming and landscape to die for. I’ve even thought about digging out my Tele skis that you set me up on. We’re in Tokyo today and now I wanna head north to ski here.
So jealous. Dig them out. Free the heal.
Wow! I thoroughly enjoyed this video in Every aspect: scenery, adventure, mood, music and of course the telemarking. I Telemark the slopes in the Europeanen Alps with occasional backcountry, but this is something else! Thank you!
Thanks for your comments. Glad you enjoyed it. Would love to do a bit of back country in Europe. Enjoy the season
Oh my word classic views. Awesome presentation guys!
Great vid! Well paced and a great take on 'Why Tele?!' - beautiful scenery and good edit. Thanks!
Thanks for watching
Great pictures, well put together. What an adventure.
Super video!
Great vid as usual. Had a great 10 days skiing with Indio and Juan in October this year. Agree with your comments on Patagonia. Fantastic place. Also great guides- highly recommended. Left my Tele skis at home. It's AT for me now in the back country - only Tele the resorts. When Scarpa comes up with a Tele boot with the range of motion and weight of its F1 I will Tele the back country again.
I don’t have an answer either! But I’ve been a tele freak for 27 years! Rip it.
Perfect narrative voice
Awesome!
Great video guys. Know what I ‘m going to dream of next time I sleep
I say someone and tele at my local resort and was curious to say the least. Thanks for putting this fantastic video together answering the "why?". Magnificent location and editing was the cherry on top.
What a fantastic video
Cheers
Great stuff! Respect !!
My dream place w snow i wish someday i can touch the real snow
Why Telemark? Why ski? Why snowboard? Why do anything? Answer: Because I can, and it's fun.
Sweet.
Why tele? Because it's a dance, with gravity leading.
And you feel like a million bucks when it all flows.
Ern Reeders. Why didn’t I think to say that. Sooo true.
Great content ...
this is incredible. This is quality content wow! new subscriber .
I want to learn how to to Telemark where I live in the Arctic
Sounds amazing living in Arctic. Perfect place to do a bit of touring
Nice trip and let me know when you go next. ;)
Badass
if you're ever passing through Yosemite hit me up. let's free that heel!
Andrew M. Upchurch. Thanks would love to. Never been there.
You've crushed it again. Great attitudes, great trip, great video.
Would love to coffee, patreon, or youtube tip you!
Glad you enjoyed.
Thanks for offering to patreon us. We currently don’t do anything like that but I am very moved that you would like to do that.
Nice video new friend here
Where are you 2 off to next ? I need some new adventure footage !! I've watched your 3 telemark trips to death.
We were meant to be in the Fareo islands now. Anyway.... if you have any ideas let me know I’m keen for another adventure.
There is also a very bad early on movie telemarking at Mt feathertop in Australia 😂. Glad you have enjoyed them
Wonderful! In which period did you go there? Was it september 2018?
Luca Pregno. That is right. Sept 2018
Looks like a fantastic trip. I would love to try to recreate something like this one day. Question: Did you pay your guide for the whole month you were traveling and touring?!
We paid our guide for ski days and travel days. Good luck planning it and enjoy.
@@blu112233 Amazing video... and I really like your down to earth mindset about telemark. I’m actually going to Chile to study and after watching this I knew I had to bring my tele skis. Being a student on a somewhat limited budget, would you still recommend paying for a guide?
@@eliasprytz7862 If you are going to be there for a while I really wouldn't worry about a guide in Chile as most of the mountains are volcanos and are easy to navigate if you have back country experience. However Argintina is a different story. In Argintina you are skiing on mountains with all of the mountain trimmings, of aspect, powder pockets, windblown as well as skiing into areas that you may not want to be. That being said if you are there for some time just as around as you may be able to hook up with someone. In El Charlton there is a really nice guide by the name of Indio. Hope this helps
@@blu112233 Me and my buddy have some experience from the backcountry in Norway, so Chile sounds manageable. Good to know about Argentina too. Thank you!
@@eliasprytz7862 no worries. Definitely check out Argintina for back country. If you want / need any help or advice, just ask
Dikit na po idol.. Thank you
Hi, I like your telemark-videos! Fantastic locations, smooth telemarkturns. I saw that you are using crampons for the ascenting. Which ones, do you think, fits the best for 75 mm and NTN? I've tried some (Grivel Skimatic), but they do not really fit my boots.
We use Petzl irvis. It is an ultra light crampon however it is not amazing fit for either ntn or 75mm boots. What I do like about them though is that they really are light and don’t take up a lot of room. Glad you enjoy the videos.
@@blu112233 Thank you for this hot tip! I bought the Irvis hybrid because of the steel frontpart. But first they also won't really fit. Than I saw at Bergzeit.de, a German Outdoor retailer (they also have an UK-Web-Shop) that there are special toe bails from Petzl available. I bought them too and now, both of my telebootmodels fits really good (NTN an 75 mm). The Petzl item-no. is T03600, if you want to have a look about them. Greets from bavarian alps! Klaus
@@renppeh Glad to hear. Might have to get to the Barbarian Alps one day
Whyyyyy
is this a TV show!?
Awesome video! I'm trying to plan a patagonia ski trip, and would love some info/suggestions about it! Any chance I could shoot you guys an email?
Sure no worries
Hello Ian. I recommend you look on Instagram for the following backcountry ski guides accounts in the Bariloche and San Martín de los Andes area:
- Backcountry Patagonia
- Andescross
- Volcanes Patagónicos Logística
Greetings from Neuquén, Argentina and hope you visit our region soon.
Hi guys, is it possible to know Salomon 106 ski's lenght ? Tnks
Sorry for the delay. 174cm
Free the Heel, spread the shred. Anyone know the last song?
It is called coming up roses by Tangerine. I bought the license from Premium Beat. www.premiumbeat.com/royalty-free-tracks/coming-up-roses.
@@blu112233 Thanks! I climbed in most of those regions and was constantly thinking about how epic it would be to get turns between the El Frey spires or down the glaciers above El Chalten! Really well put together video, you've got a real nac for lifestyle video editing. If you guys are ever in BC I'd be happy to point some fellow tele fools in the right direction!
Thanks. We are thinking of going there in the future fir Heli hiking.
what song did you use around 6mins in the video?
Isaac Kilpatrick. I will get back to you. Away from the computer for several days.
PLEASE
song in 5:15 ?
Thank you!!
Sorry for the delay. Beautiful Day dream. It can be bought in Audio jungle or played on youtube. ua-cam.com/video/rI9OU1D1x98/v-deo.html
Ditto.
It is highly illegal to ski like this! =)
Likes were at 666. Sorry for ruining that
Don’t see any actual tele skiing - it’s almost all from too high to see it’s a tele skier or of a shadow with a GoPro on the helmet and ski tips. Nice scenery though.
Poppy cock! . They can both telemark ski well. I can see that . Maybe you do not know enough about Telemark skiing to ascertain what they are actually doing?
Terrible music.
