I think it would be a cool idea to make a ski movie in a documentary way. follow some pros around from place to place get they feel for the sport, their humor, a feel of who they are and a feel for the sport as it is today.

It would also be cool to document all the film companies, like follow each company around for a little while and see what goes down. Someone get on this!

maybe set up a trip and a crew of pro skiers and just flim the whole thing. this has been done with a lot of other sports, and they all seem to come out well.

flim a group of skiers on a trip going from mt to mt and what happens between that time and the skiing that happens, a look in to the world of a pro skier and that way of life.

i just think it needs to be done because all the ski movies are the same now, a segment edited to music. some thing new has to come along.

I want a ski movie with a cheesy plot. Like starsky and hutch style cops trying to bust a huge drug shipment all played by the skiers in each section.

Being diffrent is risky business, I think that ski movies should just stick to rider parts. They seem to be getting the job done.

if steve jobs just went with the flow 20 years ago then we wouldn't have mac's. sometimes you have to get off the beaten path and make your own in order to end the monotony

unfortunatly when over 100 ski/snowboard movies are produced annualy most areas have been walked on. In all seriousness there is not a single innovative idea left for ski movies short of an all helmet cam movie.

Too bad most of the pros have the personality of a cardboard box otherwise that would be a good idea.

Thats sick, Hanna Tetter is a fukin Kook shes so fukin ugo in that movie she pays out on skiing fukin hoe and she talks like a fukin retard, That snowboard movie though was preety god, Teje is soo good he does the most amazing lines in that movie, and T -rice oh shit hes sick, If they make a hollywood movie like this with the right people id be soo stoked... All the hype is good for the sport, More people means more cash, more cash means better movies, more money for sick heli trips, kool comps and better skis.
