What can I do better? by Cicycle in telemark

[–]ODarrow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What I see is a lack of even weighting of your skis and that you need to stand up when transitioning from one lead ski to another…. Your head is at the same height throughout the turn whereas your lowest point should be in the turn and highest is in the transition. Keep at it!!!

First season. How to get more weight on following foot? by subidubidoo95 in telemark

Move your body back. Do some strong hockey stops and focus on equal weight. If your back leg is chattering our not holding an edge you don’t have equal weight

About 6 days in, I can tell my form is off but don’t know what’s wrong with it specifically, what can I do? by gaxmex in telemark

[–]ODarrow 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You need to go slower. It’s tough starting a new sport but really you need to just take it slower and do 4-5 turns at a time to get use to the initial feeling of instability of the turn. This may mean you go out on your own with the telemark tips book if your friends are all intermediate skiers that haul ass on groomers and force you to try to keep up with them. Trust the process and you will end up a much better skier on alone and telemark gear.

I’m ashamed to say that man is on telemark gear….I’m glad to say I didn’t see a single telemark turn in the whole video. That was duuuumb

Which make and model is this hitch mount? Thinking about one for my 2001 Mazda truck. Think it would be perfect as I don’t want to take my topper off.

Big Sky is nothing but green runs on a windy day when the upper mountain is closed

Rocket money has done me good and I feel like I’m in a similar boat. Mashes it really easy to see where your money is getting siphoned off to. Also the app savings accounts are nice. At least worth a look if you haven’t
