Wow, I can't think of one...

I really like: Enjoy, Skimatic, Turbo, Shanghai Six, and War, in addition to newer ones. EDIAS and Refresh were both really dope.

But I might have to give the top spot to 1242, everybody kills it, and what can beat Tanner riding on the OG Ar5s?

yearbook, hands down. ballin skiers, great editing, and mcconkey killed it with the first ski base jumps. 

this was the movie that, in my opinion, blew down the doors, permitting the current progression of skiing to accelerate like it has.  it convinced me that the park was more than a bunch of off-season skaters, that their style and form could coexist with and even cross-germinate with the new canadian air force and its big-mountain movement. 

I think that refresh represents the coming of age of the movement: warren's endorsement and even embrace of new skiing is sort of a ceremonial passing of the torch of the leadership of the sport of skiing.  But yearbook was its debut; nothing could ever encapsulate the progression of today's skiing like it did.

funny how everyone loves refresh, i was super dissapointed with it after several years of buying level 1 movies, i think this will be my last. Too wiggery, too much urban and rails, soundtrack was shite, except for a few tracks, and edias/in deep blew it away for me. much more well rounded movies appealing to all aspects of skiing. to each his own.

Everyday is a saturday.  Dane tudors segment at the beginning with the song "take a minute" has got to be one of my favorite things ever. but the entire movie itself is fantastic too.
