I am looking into getting some tele bindings bc i think it would be fun and it looks sick af. Telecolo on yt is my favorite group that uses tele in park. i feel like it can just change the game in park skiing.
I'd say telemark skiing is really cool but more so out of the park than in the park. try it and you'll understand. either way it's mega fun. it's just hard to do much other than straight hit a rail on tele skis.
Raf.Diaz.Im looking to get a tele set up does anyone know what i should look for?
Depends how much $$ you want to spend. You can find some old boots and cable bindings for pretty cheap, but they kinda suck. If you want a new setup, some of the new gear thats been released (scarpa's new boot, 22's new binding) looks pretty sick. If you're buying used, you'll want to make sure there's no cracks in the shell of the boot, binding cables aren't frayed, and pivot points aren't worn out. 22 Designs will refresh the bushings on their bindings if you send them in, not sure about other companies. Doesn't really matter what ski you put everything on if you're just starting. Start doing lunges at the gym now, so you won't destroy your legs on your first day on snow.

Make sure both cartridges on each ski screw in and out properly. I bought a pair where one side couldn’t be adjusted to the boot so the heel was off center.
I have tried the new scarpa boots and 22 ntns. Very yes. Super durable and robust. No need to fear buttering. You will break before the bindings.

How'd you like the new TX Pro? I've got the TX Comp and don't need new boots yet but I'm experiencing the urge to spend money on ski gear again.
Tele is steeze as fuck. As someone who rips both teles/alpines I say everyone should have a pair of teles to rip around on. While they are harder to do cool tricks on in the park when I want a day to just mess around and flow and not worry about doing any big tricks I just throw my teles on, pop in some groovy tunes, and you enter a flow state that cannot be achievable on alpines. It’s also really great for your knees too! Helps work out the stiffness that I get when I’ve been riding really hard. Pow days are also soooo much better on teles. You’re halfway closer to the ground so every turn is a face shot.
Holysmokes. Your broken slides are sick as fuck. Dropped a follooowwww.

I thought you typically listen to your thoughts while skiing
however hard you think tele is it's actually 5 times harder. to actually do a proper lunge into a turn is super challenging. i wish i had grown up doing it but i don't feel the need to burn a whole season getting good enough to ski the stuff i'm used to
Ever since Tele skiing I have notice the following:
1. More shartys
2. Sexual endurance has increased from 15 seconds to 69 seconds
3. I’ve got a dumptruck
4. Weed doesn’t get me high anymore
5. I can now count to 5.
a. My bombs are slow and sexy now

I heard if wee doesn’t get you high a lot of tele skiers start microdosing on heroin and dance in the woods
BallClapperComplains of shinbang, doesn't know what causes it. 🙄
i know exactly what causes it buddy, i explain it super thoroughly in my post. This is why we wear helmets, so we can read and so we don’t go on the internet with a name like ballclapper
Just because you wear a helmet doesn’t mean you can’t get severe brain injuries. Here you go again.

My biggest issue with tele is that some of the skiers that do it. manifest the absolute worst attitude i get that it's harder and it does look good when done well. But so many times I've talked to one in the chair and 90% of the time the convo ends up with them saying I need to take the training wheels off and ski for real.
Folks that tele in the park that shit blows my mind
It’s a defense mechanism homie you gotta give some shit as a tele skier or else you’re just taking it constantly. Also take your training wheels off and ski for real
