My Skiing

The only interesting thing I do these days seems to be long speed traverses. Since I'm not quite the fastest I instead try to pick things that people haven't done as a speed traverses before. Also then I see new places.

My Gear

Telemark. Have skis with duckbill, tele-tech, and NNN-BC bindings.

I thought I'd wait until I had a chance to really asses the damage before posting a quick review. I was initially quite excited about them. The glue was (is?) amazing - I had difficulty removing it from the release sheets, without leaving chunks of release sheet stuck to the skins, and on a short test trip they gripped the bases just as well yet did...
