skimottaret, It was nice and hard first thing, but high temps were effecting the snow usually after an hour or so. Made for some great bump sessions  and some good late bib training

It was great having a telemarker come along, it added great variety to the camp! Looking forward to hopefully working with more guys from the telemark team

Then I was right there was someone doing tele through the bumps - that looked really difficult!

Definitely looks more graceful! The other guys looked like bags of crazed weasels going over those bumps!
Hmmm, skier X... tele... when are we going to see tele X?

Jack - definitely a mad house. I've seen them in action in VT! Tread carefully for reasons of sanity!

BritishTelemark, Welcome to snowheads and great skiing on the vid. I'm just a novice on teles, but it's huge fun.
jjc, Interesting - we had one guy on teles on last year's core skills camp (Fastman and myself. Although he skied mostly alpine on his teles, it was impressive seeing him do all the balance and edging skills work on teles.

easiski, We tried to do a lot of the same drills with tele which proved to be beneficial. It was great as there are a lot of similarities on the racing side between telemark and alpine. The main focus was getting the pressure on earlier in the turn and gaining confidence in making a move down the hill rather than loosing all the energy from the top of the turn by moving straight up. It was fun to see Jack giving it a good go and experimenting with how much he could dive down the hill, it leads to a few more crashes than with alpine but helped make a massive step in the right direction.
