I would love to give tele's a shot.
I mostly snowboard but I do get out on skis at least 10-15 times a year. |

I tele! I never actually learned to alpine ski.
Got me some K2 Instinx last year!
My husband who doesn't have classes today actually went to the Beav this morning. It's not open but you can ski up to the top in 45 min. |

Nice.
I was wondering if there were people that only learned to tele. That's pretty cool, I wish I just just started off teleing. |

| Dang it! I was hoping to get out last weekend, but I developed a head cold on Saturday. I hope I can go this weekend if I'm feeling better. I need to know if my knees will work! |

I'd love to get into tele.
I'm new to skiing, so I just purchased some backcountry xc skiis. Somewhat a xc / teli hybrid ski. Next year I plan on getting a full tele kit. :) |

I am certainly not MADE for teleskiing.
Me, my husband and two of our friends all started at the same time. It was always odd when at the end of the day I was a crippled mess and they were all fine. My knees were like flaming hot swollen grapefruits, unable to walk or bend.
Turns out I have femoral anteversion which makes for odd hip/knee angles. That gave me tendonitis and bursitis. I'm deformed! Deformed I tell ya! It's not a fixable thing, but we tried physcial therapy. I've been going for months and hit the gym lifting weight 3 days a week in hopes to build up all my muscles from the knees up.
I was told by one doc that I should not tele anymore, I'll only continue to have issues. He said try something different!
So I'm really waiting to see if my knees work! I haven't given up yet. |
