Forward as in the Level 1 movie? I haven't watched it yet, but I've got it lying 'round somewhere. I liked Shanghai Six and Long Story Short though. I'll watch it later... right now I'm too busy watching my favourite segments in Yeah Dude, Believe, and Idea.

dc's segment was soooo good, and unbelievably far ahead of it's time. Plus, universal love is a great song.

I love this movie! DC's part is so sick. It's cool how it starts off all urban with that punk song and shows his jacking his knee (which sucks) but then it transitions into that sick song and DC just slaying shit. I believe he does all 4 10s in the end of the seg, all smooth and all sick.

Aww yea, Forward is BY FAR my favorite Level 1 flick. Nothing has really compared since Forward from them. I haven't seen this years movie yet though. Chricton's seggy is so fucking dope. Unbelievable.

one of my favorite segments. what happened to those guys like emil coty and derik finn? level 1 should make a throwback film, with emil, hibbert, finn, even crichton if health would allow it. that would be sweet.

It i most deffinatly one of the best I've seen. it makes me cry when I watch it and then pretty much any other ski movie back to back... DC's flat 5 in the pipe over that gap always blows me away. that trick alone shows how our sport has progressed. At one of the WSI best hit comps in the pipe he won with that trick. Nothing before it, nothing after it. A few years later it became part of his standard pipe run.  I love watching that guys segment. That movie simply makes me want to get up off my ass and ski. simple as that. I don't think a ski movie can have any higher praise! at least not from me.

Crichton IS a skiing icon.  I'm glad to see that his talent is still appreciated and his presence missed.

For sure, Chricton is always one of those skiers that I look up to. Like Mickael or Candide. Not many compare to him. His style, flawless. Smoothest mothafucka ever. So tech on urban, I had my mind blown by that seggy in Forward. I remember the first time I saw it I had to go back and watch the segment numerous times, even though I hadn't even seen the rest of the movie. So damn good. I miss seeing Chricton kill it.

Forward is a straightup awesome movie.

One of my favorites by far. It has a good mix of music styles and the skiing is awesome. Good personality as well as feel.
