You should have seen it on Monday sitting on the tripod with the LCD screen plastered in snow. <br /><br />The turn just happened to be honest, I tried to do as the book said (I didn't do exactly what the book said although I thought I had) and the skis turned so I just kept doing it.<br /><br />@ Joe, I normally suffer from the curse of crossed skis and end up on my back, head downhill and unable to get up as my right ski is trapped underneath the left :-)<br /><br />Unfortunately there's a bit of a thaw now so I'm keeping my fingers crossed that it'll hold out until Saturday at least on higher ground.Mac Ehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11212410938991488721noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2910485704176747208.post-62883506743192494842010-12-09T20:15:47.036+00:002010-12-09T20:15:47.036+00:00Richard, I'll echo Dave's comments, who ca...Richard, I'll echo Dave's comments, who cares if it isn't a textbook tele turn, it beats snow ploughing!

Aach, who cares if it wasn't a textbook telemark whatever it was it got you round a corner in what looks like (for a couple of hundredths of a second at least) a controlled manner.
