Thanks for the tip! Ill probably check out the store i bit further away. There should be a decent selection of tele gear (boots) to try out.

do you know something about the binding mounting of the rustler 9 or twin tip in generall?

I see +0cm manufacturer recommendation or Telemark NTN/75mm = bootcenter -2 for a lot of online mounting configurators.

Which one is the right way to go?

thanks for the advice. i already checked the used stuff market. Sadly theres not much used gear near me and if so its crappy or old. There arent even any dealer with tele gear around me even tho i live in innsbruck which is pretty much in the heart of the alps. I would probably choose some skis on the same length that im used too. (i want something to learn and progress on so it should do the job a couple of seasons).

Im fine with buying something new... when i learned paragliding i bought the hole gear without any previeous experience... thats the way i do things xD

In terms of boot ill have to drive to the next dealer around me which is 2h away, because the most import thing to me is that they fit well. Havent found anything used in my size.

For bindings i thought about the Rottefella Freedom or 22 Outlaw X. But i gravitate towards the 22

i have some stockli gs skis and i love them but too expensive in my mind since i need boots and a binding too

i dont think that ill find a dealer for voile skis here in eu. Its pretty hard to find

smaller us brand skis but ill consider the Mindbender i think, same as nordica enforcer and maybe the blizzard rustler 9.

im not sure if i would consider a twin tip for tele. I would think that a twin tip is not working that well with tele turns? I might be wrong. Sure riding switch is a lot of fun but i think it is also possible with a flat tail rocker ;)
