From New Telemark Guide
Alpine and XC skier for 46 years. Only 2 years on telemark and first year on NTN but lovin' it so far... My original freeheel ski was a wooden cable style alpine ski with leather boots as a kid. As a teen I found a pair of EMS Mountaineering skis with an old style Silvretta cable binding that I pushed around through the woods quite a bit. Since then I've dabbled with a wide variety of XC, alpine and snowshoe gear for years before finally making a leap in my old age to telemark (and Alpine Touring). Now that addiction has taken hold with the following gear.
