February Telemark Instruction - looking forward to the 4th season. dheber: Jan 21, 2008.  After three years of our February Telemark Program at Ski Santa Fe, we are looking forward to our fourth year and for the first time, fresh legs! The program’s timing has been moved from after lunch to before in an effort to enable the strongest moves possible from all of us and opens up the opportunity for more fresh tracks. We will be holding a four week series of telemark lessons on Saturdays, starting February 9th, from 10 am to 12 noon at Ski Santa Fe.  Each year brings together some new and some familiar faces; it offers an opportunity to build connections with a local community of telemark skiers. So far, conditions have been excellent with the upper mountain open since the opening weekend and a solid base. We anticipate a wide range of telemark experience from never-ever to experienced powder and mogul enthusiasts. The instructors will include Hugh Driscoll and myself, David Heber, and we will add instructors if participation permits. We will break out into groups based on ability and skiing focus. As in years past, we have video analysis capabilities, PSIA certified instructors, backcountry expertise, and new ideas to explore. We are happy teaching everything from basic telemark turns to high angle dynamic jump turns. We encourage you to bring your telemark skiing to the next level and join us for this year’s telemark program! To sign up, call the ski area at 982-4429 – the cost is $120 for the 4-week program.
