 I really don't think some of those can be "old" ski movies. LSS was only 4 years ago and Shanghai Six + TBC 5 years ago.  Propaganda and Happy Dayz and any of the Matchtick Ski Movies etc I'd think would be in the "old" category

Ski Movie (McConkey, Evan Raps/Skogan Sprang, Vincent Dorion, JP parts are all amazing)
x=10 (TJ's best video part yet, Ant B's part, the rest is good all around, UP1)

Definitely Ski Movie ^. Awesome, funny and got me into freeskiing. Also to add to the list, "Blizzard of AAAhs" or "License to Thrill". I always liked Greg Stumps narration plus Shmidt and Plake.

hell yeah, this was my first ski movie.... JP throwing down into that tree, Evan Raps getting steezy on that janky night QP, Vinnie's segment with 'Rockwilder'... that movie fucking ruled.

Gotta give it to forward. with 1242 close behind. 1242 might have been more groundbreaking, but in terms of overall love, cant beat DC's forward seg

Tee Time. The skiing in that movie could be legitimately described as "extreme." Or on a newer note, 1242, TBC, and Idea.

The movie that made people think that heli skiing meant jumping out of the hovering heli...the movie that first showed non-skiers that hot tubs, naked chicks, and beer are all better in a mountain town...the movie that most of you twerps were probably conceived during the making of...

Not as old, but I love Push. The skiing is pretty sick, and I really like the overall concept of it. But thats just me. Eric Pollard's segment in Push is probably one of my favorite segments in any ski movie, its just really laid back, creative, and has so much flow. I love watching Pollard ski.
