Full disclosure - I did not write this article, ChatGPT did. I spent the last couple of months "teaching" ChatGPT about telemark skiing. Then, the other day, I asked the engine to "Write a story for skiers about alpine skier converting to telemark", here is what I got :)

What do you all think?

A story about apline skier converting to telemark that ChatGPT has written after a bit of training on telemark skiing I have done over a couple of month. The result is mind-blowing!

Welcome new sticks to the Rise of Telemark demo fleet - the one and only asymmetrical ScottyBob's. These are no longer made, but I managed to get a hold of brand spanking still in plastic wrap new pair. Mounted them with 22 Designs Outlaw X on Quiver Killer Binding Inserts inserts and took them for their first ride over the weekend at Mission Ridge Skiers & Snowboarders

Who wants to try these babies out?

Been a little quiet lately, working on my OEC and testing. Now that I made it to Hyak Ski Patrol l I can finally get back to finishing the new Rise of Telemark website, mounting 22 Designs bindings onto Voile skis for the aspiring telemark skiers in the PNW. The season is kicking into the higher gear and we are all ready! I am happy to meet more and more free heelers on the slopes!
