December 10, 2012Dear Telemark Nations!
We welcome you to the first International Telemark Instructors Meet, now known as InterTele. We have a Media Sponsor in Telemark Skier (look for Telemark Skier Magazine and www.TelemarkSkier.com) and presenting sponsor, 22Designs (look for www.twentytwodesigns.com), to help support and promote this first-ever happening for Telemark Instructors from around the world. Concurrently with the InterTele event will be a National Academy for Telemark instructors from the United States, and the event will also overlap with the hugely successful PSIA/AASI National Academy at Snowbird, (http://www.thesnowpros.org/EventsPrograms/NationalAcademy2013.aspx), giving participants from both events a sense of what the other is about, and a chance to intermingle and network with instructors from across the USA, in addition to the telemark participants from the US and around the world.
Snowbird (http://www.snowbird.com) is an ideal setting for this event, with solid, predictable spring skiing. It is a special place for me, where I first tele’ed, had my first ski area job, where I skied my best tele race, and where I first made it onto our PSIA Nordic Team. Snowbird has long been the go-to place for our national team tryouts. With world class accommodations at a discounted rate, and ticket price included in the registration, the event will be quite a good deal, in addition to being unforgettable. With Snowbird’s annual 482 inches (12.24 meters) of snowfall, phenomenal conditions become regular occurences.
Please join us in sharing best practices and ideas, technical and teaching concepts, methods of instructor training and development, the evolution of equipment, and the future of the sport.
You will make InterTele and Tele Academy the leading international event for Telemark instructors. Please join us this April in Utah, for the best days of our lives!
Sincerely,
Scotty McGeePSIA Nordic Team [email protected]
