Skiing Switch...

[hardline]

I ski switch regularily on my alpine gear.. top of the summit chair on Mt Ellen to the bottom of the GMX, (on groomers only though..) is my largest vert switch run. switch on my teles is a workout though!!! I havent' quite mastered that one yet... but this season I want to!

switch on tele just seems like a death wish.

Tele-Ben who is a Penn student and a ski patroller at Camelback often hits up Blue mountain and he had tele's mounted to K2 Public Enemys..he is always tele-ing switch and it looks mad steezy yo...he teles switch down all the runs except in bumps..When skiing in the bumps..he goes as fast as me on his teles..

Ha! nope, it's just hard. Skiing with your eyes closed is a deathwish!

I've skied with my eyes closed for maybe 10 seconds..but it was on a wide open run with no people where I knew I didn't have to make any turns..fun fun fun..

i was thinking about getting one of the lib tech banana hamok. with the rocker and reverse sidecut for a powder board. you can ridea centered stance in powder. which means switch in the powder.
