We went skiing at Carson Pass on Saturday and found some nice corn below Elephant’s Back that worked well for practicing tele turns.

After the last time I went skiing, I posted some pictures to the telemarktips.com forums and asked for advice. Everyone said “shorter poles (so you can get lower)” and several people recommended reading Paul Parker’s Free Heel Skiing. I followed both bits of advice and it worked. I was able to link turns together this time, starting to get a feel for the flow between turns. It was awesome!
