- The Telemark Movie is a step by step user-friendly instructional progression for learning downhill skiing techniques on cross-country skis, especially the Telemark turn. THe video makes use of stop-motion to present a simple, effective visual guide to Telemark skiing that will aid skiers of all abilities from beginners to experts.
The Telemark Movie was filmed over a four year period in some of the most exciting ski locations in North America: the radical slopes of Tuckerman Ravine and Mt. Washington in New Hampshire; the steep forests of Mad River Glenn, Vermont; the glaciers of Mt. Hood in Oregon; knee deep powder in Sun Valley, Idaho; above tree line in the North Cascades of Washington, and the majestic valleys of the Canadian Rockies.
Dick Hall is the founder and director of NATO, The North American Telemark Organization, and has, for the past 15 years, taught thousands of people the joys of Telemark skiing.
John Fuller, a former ski instructor and world's leading telemark cinematographer, made his first Telemark film on Mt. Rainier in 1980. Since then he has edited and produced eductational films in Washington, D.C. and worked for National Geographic and Warren Miller Ski Films.
Dick Hall and John Fuller have combined unique skiing and cinematic skills to create clear, entertaining, and inspiring film of lasting value to skiers of all levels.
Running Time: 70min
This film and Paul Parker's book was all we had back in 1993 to guide us. Lace-up leather boots, 3-pin bindings and 60-50-60 skis. Thank you, Norway.
Always big thank you to Norway. - Madsen
This film has everything you need to learn yourself. This turn is art. it's perfection
How many times did I watch this video when I were young? Over a million times? Each time, I used to wonder, ``How can I make turns on such a narrow cross-country ski with toe-only binding?''
Such a classic and still blows my mind how good everyone was on that gear! - Madsen
leather boots, skinny skis, 3-pin bindings. Still looking good!
Ah...how things have changed in 30 years! As a impressionable young man, I started on tele skiis during this era, and Dickie Hall et. al. were like gods, with their great technique and fun-loving attitude. It's interesting how time and better equipment have made all of us much better skiers now than we were with our somewhat shaky ,unstable turns back then. That being said, I feel like a lot of newer converts to tele could use a refresher course in the basics that are shown here...I see lots of newbies on tele skiis that just don't know how to properly weight their rear foot because they started with super stiff plastic boots instead of nice,flexible leather lace-ups!
I first saw this movie on VHS when I was an aspiring telemark skier and working at the Crawford Notch Hostel in New Hampshire's White Mountains in 1998. It is a classic. Was so glad to see it here on CZcams. Question - anyone have a link to the sequel: Revenge of the Telemarkers? Tried to find it on CZcams but defaults to "telemarketers". And yes, I'm still dropping the knee 20 plus years later.
This is great!! So happy I found this. Dad would have his mind blown to think this made it onto CZcams
Such a classic
And with smooth jazz for the smooth turns 😝 and a backflip in 1987. This film is cool.
Incredibly skillful skiers. Love how this video is all about the skiing and becoming better, and none of the modern-day vibe of many public and private alpine resorts (expensive gear and apres "lifestyle"). I'm hoping to get a second set of wider nordic skis and use them at the (small) alpine hills in southern Ontario where downhill setups aren't really worth it IMO. This video helped with visualizing technique.
Glad you enjoyed it! - Madsen
Magnifique. Très pédagogique avec plein d'amour, d'humour et de poésie. Merci

I grew up telemark skiing in the 1980s. The equipment is now so much better now than back in the day with double cambered skinny skis and leather lace-up boots. I still see people with their pole baskets pointing forward and think that is the one change (to keep their poles pointing backward until ready to initiate a pole plant) that will make a difference in better telemark ski technique.
I was 13 and just getting into it when this movie came out and got into telemark skiing that year after seeing how much fun one of our race coaches at my local was having on them in his spare time. My kids look at my equipment from then (hanging in the rafters) and joke that I grew up in the stone ages.
Bromley mountain VT!!! My first ever lesson, my first ever chairlift ride. I was 6. It was 1974. I’ll certainly never forget it.
Классные уроки! Медленно подробно и качественно. Спасибо за работу!
Glad it was helpful! -Madsen
As an 80’s tele-geek, love it!
This is a classic! Thanks for sharing, and thanks to Dickie Hall and co. for making such an awesome and helpful film. Worth it alone just to see how well those folks skied on that gear.
This was a fantastic experience and highly educational. I do look forward to my first Telemark turn. :)
This is a terrific video in so many ways - obviously the near term historical perspective. Also - Gotta love the "Ski the East" value of it. If you ever feel like your turn could use a little polishing, put your old Merrill's back on and take out some skinny skis for a morning of rehab. You will be killing it in the afternoon!
Tom Goltz I always tell my younger friends (using my best "old geezer" voice!) "You should have tried tele-ing back in the "good ol' days" when we used leather lace-ups and 205cm (or longer!) skiis with 60mm waists!" The technique that gear required helped turn me into the solid skier I am today. I often feel like I'm cheating with my plastic boots, hammerhead bindings and wide skiis! On some of my favorite backcountry lines I always use some of my old gear just to keep things honest. It is nice to know there are still others out there who "remember when".
Great Job! Cannot wait to Start the coming Season
Much appreciated! I especially liked the "around town" pre-season technique shown at 9:24. Nice touch with the newspaper. Made me laugh. Doesn't mean I won't be doing it too, though. I'll be able to work out anywhere in public while checking the classifieds for some of that sweet tele gear! Ha ha! Seriously, great skiing and great video. Dickie Hall's more recent Joy of Telemark Skiing video was a huge help to me in the early days of tele skiing, as was one of his clinics. Cheers!
Good luck finding an ink on paper newspaper!
Invaluable resource worthy of a spot in a time capsule.
If you put these skiers on modern gear they would be running rings around most professionals today.
Modern gear promotes cheap thrills at the cost of real skill and competence acquired through consistent and dedicated efforts.
this isn't true lmao
You got me with telemark association.
wanna join is the question?
Thanks for sharing, I'll be sharpening up the XCD GTs for this winter.
No worries thx for checking it out!
this is fucking epic.

Such a fun movie. - Madsen
I loved seeing this again! Now: where can I find: Revenge of the Telemarkers and Beyond the Groomed?
Great video! Hi from Norway 👍👏🇳🇴⛷️
Hello there!
an hour of giggles 🤣🤣 feel like Hutley from "stop the pigeon". Seeing Muricans on skies like this is always so amusing 🤣🤣
Thanks from Tinn i Telemark! 🤣
Good one for sure. - Madsen
Of course, Telemark Ski equipment has changed, but Telemark skiing techniques have changed too. The wide spread leg stances we see in this film have been replaced by tighter stances with legs closer together.
I think there is a sequel to this movie. Does anyone know what it is called?

Great video but I was in my 20s in 1987 and all of these styles are from the '70s. More like 1977!
Shout out to Galena Pass
Peak male performance
Affirmative.
o man!🤣🤣🤣
Crushers.
@@FreeheelLife Yes. indisputable.🔥
I just add comment. Because 8 comments for such video is nothing. These are not mountine skis. No details of boots. They are like dancing on slope, using more extra moves, more loading knees, wasting energy... I'm even not skier.
Yeah, when the boots were low and soft, bindings were flimsier, skis were skinny with little sidecut, and poles were not adjustable, one had to make more exaggerated movements to make a turn and balance was more difficult. You will find now days the movements are less extreme and more efficient, as the equipment does more of the work.
Actually there were adjustable poles Leki made them....and you could buy quite beefy high cut leather boots from Italy...what unsay is not true
@@michaeltodd3225 Yeah, I had some adjustable Ramer poles in the eighties. Looking at the video, I see what looks like some Whippets or was it Ramer that made those at the time? The most popular boots at that time seemed to be Asolo Extremes, which by '87 had some plastic reinforcement around the ankle, but were still fairly low and laceup. I think Merrell Supercomps and Asolo Extreme Pros came a bit later. Anyway, looking at this vid, I think what I said earlier was true for most of the skiers featured.
You’re right G K.....I’ve got some pretty high lace up merrells...well above ankle with double tongue....think I bought them mid 1990s...so rigid...if you laced them all the way, that you couldn’t really tour on them...but great for downhill runs...just left them half unlaced to tour...I got those boots in lake placid.

A time before psychotic commentary and license-free canned "symphonic heavy metal" music were obligatory.
Glad you liked it.
