Mono-tele?

**Mofro261** · 03-18-2007, 11:06 AM

Anyone done this before? A quick search came up empty.
I don't really understand tele anyway but Monotele?

And yeah it's easy to mock what we don't understand, but this guy was ripping pretty hard yesterday one ski free heel.

Probably a teleboard.

Haven't done it myself but I heli-skied in Portillo back in 2003 with a guy that was on one of these mono-tele boards. He totally ripped it. He also kept volunteering to go last because he said it didn't matter if you were skiing through tracks on it, which I found funny, because it probably really doesn't matter that much if you ski through a track or two on skis either, but why would you?

I have a regular alpine-mounted side-by-side monoski, but I haven't skied it in a few years. I have actually had a shit-ton of fun on it. They are alot faster than you might think they are, and you look like a pro in the bumps.

Isn't that a skwal?

**philippeR** · 03-18-2007, 03:01 PM

tele-skwal ? I don't think there is such a thing.
I vote tele-board.
telerod15, on Epic, is a teleboarder AFAIK.

If you get stuck on a traverse, and I come up behind you, I am going to stick a piece of string cheese up your ass, dip it in hot sauce, and shove it in your eye.

You're a strange dude.

I tried the tele board yesterday after some beverages. Managed to bust my ass proper like.

I tried a tele-board probably like 8 or 9 years ago. They had some demos, and it was early season anyway, just groomers, so I gave it a try. Toe side turns felt a lot like a regular tele turn, and the heel side felt pretty much like a snowboard turn. Sorta fun for a day like that, but I didn't go out and buy one, either.
