Avg Customer Rating: 
Product Description: This showcase for some of the world's most fearless skiers benefits from beautiful camera work, a thumping soundtrack, and a skewed sense of humor. Masters of extreme skiing, including Jonny Mosely, Shane McConkey, and Seth Morrison, go hurtling down mountainsides so close to vertical that no normal person would think of skiing them. And of course the glorious footage, often shot from helicopters, makes it all seem absurdly easy. The genuine danger of this snowy showboating is illustrated in a segment in which Dean Cummings, while making a jump on a mountainside in Alaska, makes a slight error that sends him careening out of control. "I was dealt a pretty hard blow while tearing it," he comments, noting that he was lucky to come away with only a broken leg. A spectacular scene in which skiers are shown gracefully cavorting so high that they can look down on the clouds helps explain why people would be driven to such extremes. And for those who just can't get enough of a rush on skis, a comical sequence features intrepid and insane fellows who up the ante by roaring down impossible slopes on snowmobiles. Just about everything in Ski Movie is something you shouldn't even think about doing yourself, and that's what makes it so entertaining. --Robert J. McNamara

Customer Reviews
Good flick
I give this one 5 stars but if you only buy 1 ski movie, make it Ski Movie 2: High Society not this one. I have about 40 extreme sport dvd's (mt biking, skiing, crusty series, etc...). For winter action, this is the best.
PS: If you kind find it, MIND The addiction (16mm) is also great.

Ski Movie
A fair ski movie. Probably was the best until ski movie 2 came out. Nothing so far has equaled the energy and sound tracks of the ski movie 2.

SKI MOVIE HAS IT ALL
Jonny Moseley,Shane McConkey, Chris Davenport, Seth Morrison. This movie has it all. AWESOME locations, awesome skiers, awesome music.The prequel to Ski Movie really sets everything up. The entering scene is really cool, with Heart's "Barracuda". IT is an adrenaline driven film. There are not many chill moments. They are all chill, because it is all snowbound, but there are no moments to step back and ponder the movie. Brad Holmes is a great rapper, rivals McConkey in "Theres Something About McConkey". Also, "Brett's Song" is a great tribute to a friend felled by the mountain. To any skier, this is an absolute MUST. Just watch it, and you will be suffering from shakes and chills in these hot summer months, yearning for the cool mountain air and big powder flakes.

Best Skiing movie to date
This has been my favorite ski movie for the last couple years, and is only beaten by the newer TGR movies. This movie is a much more extreme version of Warren Miller's movie (although "Fifty" was great) but without the constant commentary and humor. You can tell the movie is made by some great skiiers.All the skiiers are great skiiers, from Les Trois Philipes to pretty boy Moseley and Seth Morrison - no Tommy Moe or Picabo here. The soundtrack alone is worth buying, with bands such as Methods of Meyham (Tommy Lee), Crazytown, Long Beach Dub Allstars, Popa Roach, Sum 41, and more. Definitely THE first ski movie to own. btw- JP Auclair is sick.

Sweet movie!
OK well i really like this movie it is so good. It is tied with second for my favorie ski movie with parential advisory the game being my favorite. It includes seth morrison's 10 minute segment then brad home's pathetic rap which i just have to fast foward it drives me nuts. Evan ras and skoe sprang have a supurb segment probably my favorite of the video. Then is shane mckonkey. Any wy i am not gonna go through the whole movie but basically its a pretty good blend of park riding and Ak.I an't wait for ski movie 2 high society.
