It looks fun; if I were not at my age I would actually get one to play it. The spirit of Taichi Skiing is to pursue skiing with the "simplest mean/technique/device," and I think for skiing there's nothing simpler than teleboarding setup any more. To me, that is an "ultimate" skiing. The marketed teleboards that I've seen look almost exactly like what she is on, much narrower than conventional snowboards, and remember, when I first saw this, REALLY WIDE skis weren't available (1998). Actually, I'm thinking today's big fat rocker skis of a proper size can make a nice teleboard; what a deal, buy one pair of skis and get two teleboards. snowbender |

Can't answer it? You said "new way for powder skiing, try teleboarding". Then you showed clips of groomed run teleboarding. Nothing to even suggest it would work on anything anyone here would consider powder. Certain, the board shown would dive to the limits. You could try real snowboarding. I assure you they work great in the powder. Or, you could try telemarking. That certainly works superbly in the powder. One skinny ski? Somehow, I doubt it. How about cutting out the shameless insults, and actually answering the question? |

So you don't think this clip shows powder snow, or good powder skiing? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=diKD08dqj0I Or your little knowledge doesn't know what powder skiing is?

The previous answers are still in the plain view above your shameless denial response. You were asked to show it working in powder and you didn't. Those are the facts.

Certain, the board shown would dive to the limits. So you don't think this clip shows powder snow, or good powder skiing? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=diKD08dqj0I No. It doesn't. It shows skiing in approximately 6 - 10 inches of loose snow over a packed base. Or your little knowledge doesn't know what powder skiing is? I know that it's not simply the presence of fresh snow. You could try real snowboarding. I assure you they work great in the powder. Or, you could try telemarking. That certainly works superbly in the powder.

That is not powder skiing. The loose snow is only a few inches deep. -- Alan Baker Vancouver, British Columbia http://gallery.me.com/alangbaker/100008/DSCF0162/web.jpg |
