Teleboard
Whassat? Boarding and Free Heeling Converge
Until now, the only thing telemark skiing and snowboarding have had in common is a sort of camaraderie, the result of being bastard children of the big winter sports business. The snowboard industry pimps the hip side of being semi-shunned through renegade marketing of the yo-bro'-punk-hipsta-crippler dude riding scene.
Teleboard Specifications
Length=181cm
Shovel=19.5cm
Waist=14.5cm
Tail=17.5cm
Telemark, though it was the original ski turn in the days of the first skis in mid-19th century Norway, was kicked in the teeth by nordic skiing and left to rot by the popularity of alpine.
Only recently has it bounced back into the picture. This rejuvenation has come from the growing interest of skiers in leaving lift lines behind and venturing into backcountry terrain. Competitive telemark ski racing during the last two decades has also put telemark on the map as part of the International Ski Federation (FIS) World Cup circuit.
Now, the two converge as Uniboard Corporation of Connecticut has combined the snowboard and telemark set-up in the form of Teleboard — a single narrow board mounted with telemark bindings. Erik Fey was a snowboard instructor in Killington, VT when he and his brother, Martin, talked about the struggles of riding bumps on a snowboard. Martin then fabricated the Teleboard prototypes in his garage and sent them to Erik to try.
"I made a narrower board, but it was too narrow to fit snowboard bindings," Martin said, "so I found some old telemark bindings in the garage and mounted them."
