When I wanted to learn about telemark skiing, I was referred by more than person to Peter Kavouksorian, one of the acknowledged Deans of Eastern freeheel skiing.

Telemark skiing, also known as freeheel skiing, is skiing with a binding that only connects the boot to the ski at the toes, as in cross-country skiing. It is similar to cross-country skiing, but enables the skiier to handle steep terrain.
