it's not as difficult as you'd think... first off if you're skiing park with tele the cartridges (binding depending) you'd be using would be stiff as all hell and really dialled up compared to what you'd use to do some touring and ski powder. and then of course just where you put your weight when you land, obviously if you land really far forward then it won't turn out too well, but if you centre your weight more to the back when landing switch then it's very much do-able

tele bindings have cartridges in them. so if your standing on flat and you lift your foot off the ground the ski doesnt just flop to the ground. it is much harder to land switch on teles but can be done, the bindings arent completly lose so you dont just fall on your face.

for all of you fucks who think tele is lame, you need to remember that tele was created before fixed heel bindings. its the original and first way to that people have skied.

i dont tele

but i think it's ill and have always wanted to try it, just never got the money to get a new setup

it's i different approach to snowsports which i think is fairly cool

p.s. i'm from the east, and there are a shitload of tele skiers out there, and those who don't tele don't think its dumb either...so don't hate on the east

Thats true, but if you go by that logic then skiing on 16 foot long hand carved trees would be the most badass thing ever. And I guess there's nothing uncool about that, but we have new technology for a reason.
Teleing is similar. It has its time and place (BC, powder, etc.), but I don't see it having any advantages in the park.
But, to each his own.

very carefully.

land centered on your feet, then slide a knee down- helps me balance, plus it just looks cooler to see freeheelers actually tele switch rather than be on tele skis doing alpine turns switch.
