The
Techniques and Unique Aspects of Free-Heel Boarding The first book ever on
free-heel boarding techniques! |
||||||||||
Free-heel boarding (also known as Teleboard) could
simply be defined as skiing downhill on a single board mounted with free-heel
bindings. One foot is in front of the other, along the longitudinal axis of
the board. On first impression, there's indeed a bit of paradox
with free-heel boards / teleboards. The combination
of free-heel bindings on a single board leads to an apparently odd set-up. But looking at it more carefully, free-heel boarding
opens a unique range of possibilities (of movement, especially) that can be
turned into an advantage in multiple snow conditions. This makes a free-heel
boarder perfectly at ease with all snow conditions and terrains. So what is at stake for the teleboarder
is to use all these possibilities in a coherent free-heel boarding technique,
and to exploit technical elements from other sports (monoski,
skwal, snowboard) to sublimate them with the free heel. This is the challenge of this book. |
