Telemark skiing is dead.

Jesus Christ. What does it take to get a non fuckary pin tele binding. This shit has to stop.

And someone reached out to me looking for a large axl if anyone is holding.

Sure, AT bindings are burlier than BC-only recommended tele bindings. No argument.

But among just the few folks I know who regularly ski their AT gear hard in-area, I've seen AT binding failures. I don't even know that many people who do it.

Personally, I don't even see the point; those things are not cheap. MNC bindings exist specifically to allow folks who want to ski their BC boots in area. And they get better DIN-rated release in the mix.

Does anyone want these? $10 to your local animal or women’s shelter, or some other altruistic deed, will get them sent to you.

No, these boots have been a nightmare (and WAY too much money) to make work and still aren't right. If I could find a Scott NTN Tele boot engineer to slap, I would.
And before you say anything, yes, I tried the Scarpas, those fit *worse*.

The forward lean of the Scotts is really uncomfortable.

But if you REALLY want the Scotts, I'll sell them for 75% of what I am into them.
PM me for details.

I’m good, but jhyatt loves that boot in that size.

So did you have the bellows-crushing-top of foot issue that is the most common complaint about the voodoo? And the fwd lean mechanism angle is adjustable as I recall…even the most upright was too angled? Why is the fwd lean spoiler still in your boot? Sorry for all the questions. Btw there are no Scott NTN engineers. They bought the Garmont molds and design. I absolutely hated my pair of the Garmont version of your boot. But some folks like ‘em.

yeah i had the voodoo and those things were horrendous. YUGE, bellows crushing, could never get them to fit after trying various liners, etc.

i'll take those outlaws if ya dumping them. ;-)

Back in the nascent days of NTN, I tried the Garmont Prophet (no idea if that boot still exists under different name). It had lots of buzz as the big new thing in tele boots, but I could just never make them work. Went to TX Pros and haven't looked back.

[jrredho]

Trashing NTN, or tele generally, due to a given boot line's fit seems, uh, extreme.

In Laps defense, they appear to have a hand for a foot.

So, yesterday was at Loveland with a friend who managed and owned ski shops for forty years. At one point he referred to Telly as having been a fad. Had never heard it characterized like that before.
On a separate note, 10 year old T2s and the liners are finally shot. New liners are not real cheap and new Eco T2s are only 450 bucks at this point in season. Any suggestions, new boots or new liners? Like the new colors.

Just meant you have a hard to fit foot, since neither Scott nor Scarpa seem to accommodate your shape.

That was tigerstripe. I love my scarpas.

So noted; you can stop walking on your hands.
Boomer apology.

You might want to take a look at telemark-pyrenees.com as their prices are even better than that, although in limited sizes. I've had nothing but good service from those folks.

Good luck!
