Testimonials
Craig Martin
Craig came to Telemarking through XC skiing and touring. He started skiing at the resorts about 9 years ago and finally got around to getting his first lesson 9 years ago
"The Thredbo Telemark Classic last year way exceeded my expectations, the lessons were brilliant, the company of other teles really great. This year I would like to refine my technique a bit more, and hopefully hang out with even more teles. Last year we did a run down Highnoon with the whole crew, it was awesome. Everywhere you looked was someone in a tele stance."
"Telemarking feels so good, you really have to be one with the snow."
Craig Katen
Craig has been telemarking since he did a season in Canada 8 years ago and now 90% of his skiing is Telemarking
"Basically I was bored with alpine resort skiing and wanted to learn somethng new I really enjoy the feel of the telemark stance, the free heel and the gracefull motion etc "
"2 days of instruction, the race etc and skiing in a group with other telemarkers made last years Thredbo Telemark Classic it a memorable event and The trip to DHG was cool, having 20 odd telemarkers all on the same run together was cool. Since I've improved slightly since last year i hope this year I can work on improving my technique even more."
