When you think of tele-skiing, you probably think of a local 70-year-old man arcing beautiful turns down a groomer to the beat of his own drum. This edit is anything but that. Ty Dayberry is an incredibly talented telemark skier and he absolutely throws down, as seen in this powder-packed edit from Sierra-at-Tahoe. Those face shots are what dreams are made of and he’s doing it all while riding skis that don’t connect to the heels of his boots. #Respect

Some days you get knocked down and beaten, and somedays you walk away feeling completely accomplished. After seven+ years of waiting for the stars to align I finally landed a switch dub 9! The crew I was with made it possible for it all to happen. Everybody stomped tricks and walked away safely; thats all you can ask for. Yesterday was one of the most exhilarating days I have ever experienced on a pair of Telemark skis, thanks buds! ???? @mcrossins // @k2skis @freeheellife @rottefellatelemark @sierra_at_tahoe @tydemusic @scarpana @tomahawkinternational @guayaki
