	Telemark skiing feature story on telemarktips.com
		North American Telemark Association founder Dickie Hall once told me that he and a group of north eastern U.S. skiers were already making telemark turns in the early 70s when a couple of tele skiers from Colorado visited their local mountains in Vermont.
		Many telemarkers turned to alpine skis as an alternative, but alpine ski design was, at the time, largely driven by racing, meaning that the skis were almost all very stiff along their length from tip to tail (longitudinally)...
		The Tua Montet was a popular telemark ski model in the early to mid-90s, and with dimensions of 86mms at its tip and 64mms at its waist, it's a good example of a typical of its time skinny ski, with very little sidecut (22mms).

	Telemark skiing - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Telemark skiing is a term used for skiing using the Telemark turn which is a technique first popularized by Sondre Norheim.
		Telemark skiing was a back-to-basics reaction to the high-tech equipment developments of Alpine skiing, and the increasing reliance on crowded groomed pistes (trails).
		Since the weight of the foot that is bent during the Telemark turn is placed under the toe rather than between the toe and heel, the outer edge of the assymmetrical skis is shortened by cutting out a bit of the tail and modifying the radius accordingly.
