Tele-what!?!

I think the guy in the middle is our own Moscawulff - and he's on tele skis, and I'm not sure, but I think I would define his pose as...gaping?

Name that naked guy!

Looks like Snowbell to me.

I think tele-juggling is going to be hot. Scotsman forgot to mention reverse camber spatulas as another option.

Literally it could be hot!
I tele skied the reverse camber Megawatt last year as a demo at the Vertfest.
Like them a lot, but purely a specific ski-deep snow, chopped crud, no ice or hardpack ski.
I liked the way I could ski them sideways through the goo in thicker trees.

Name that naked guy!

Snowbell

It's definitely Snow Bell! I recognise his manly chest hair.

Scotty....I purchased the boots....got my new wife to give me her old bindings and guess what....my knees are already aching!  :   I do have great respect for anyone who can do the turn with grace....it looks so cool.  So I'll be trying it a bit this year, just to see if I can at this advanced age....Joe I look forward to spending a day with you and Scotty no matter what we gear we are attempting to drive.....Let it snow!...Jerry

Interesting.
In the same post you take umbrage over someone using the term "tele-gaper" in a post and demand  more respect but in the same post you later make a point of referring to the somebody saying" we all know alpine is easier"....
I wish I could do it and intend to join my friend JW at a telemark camp this March to try and learn.

As a tele skier for the last 18 years and an AT skier for the months of June and July ... alpine is sooooo easier! But, that's a plus is it not? Scotsman you can learn to tele in a day at a lift area as long as you wear big boots, use an active binding, and some mid-fats; at the least you'll be able to do a fake-a-mark! But if you really want to punish yourself grab some old floppy leather Asolos snowfields and some nice long Karhu XCD GTs of 80s vintage with 3-pins and try skiing some breakable crust.

Lou Dawson has some cogent thoughts on tele vs. AT: at his age he doesn't want to work that hard
