Every year we get so many voicemails, emails, DMs, and the like regarding Telemark skiing. A lot of these questions are the same because there’s generally a lack of information online or people have a hard time finding the answers they need. So today I thought I’d put together my top list of FREQUENTLY ASKED TELEMARK QUESTIONS IN 2023 and see if I can offer some answers, opinions, and insights on things.
I’m looking to get into Telemark skiing. What type of ski should I use for my first setup?
I’m putting my first Telemark setup together. Should I focus where I spend my money on the skis, boots, or bindings? What is the most important things to think of?
I’m currently skiing a stiffer T-Race 75mm boot and need new boots. I don’t want to switch to NTN because I don’t want to convert all of my setups, what are my choices?
Where can I learn to Telemark ski? Should I get a lesson…is it worth it?
Do you carry Scarpa replacement mid-straps?
I’d love to get my kids on Telemark gear. Do you offer kids rentals? How does that work?

Awesome video! I'm new to telemark... I grew up a snowboarder, moved to Vermont, fell in love with BC classic nordic because it's so available. After a few years I wanted to traverse further and go down steeper hills so I upgraded to a Tele setup! Scarpa t2 boot, switchback x2 binding, voile ultravector bc ski. Absolutely in love, nothings perfectly sized but It's my first setup and it works currently.. I'm 5'4 140-150lbs, I got 164 skis (wish I went a little shorter), I'm a size 41eu shoe an I got a 25.5 boot ( should've got a 25, exp voice didnt have it though). I have a ton of fun though.. my first time out I traversed a local nordic spot in full tour mode to see what pains would arise, ended up doing over 8 miles before needing lunch. I started descending not long after, I'm definitely a lawn dart at times but hey I'm learning.
