Ok so i am going to make this story a whole shorter for you guys

At my school i run the ski club with a fellow NSer

We raise funds from sales, and contests, raffles and such and at the end of the semesters we donate it to the CR Johnson Foundation.

We want to show a video for the rest of the high school who have no idea who CR is and his impact on skiing but also his lifestyle and his outlook on life.

What i need from you guys is to find me the best tribute video of CR and only CR Johnson,

We can make this into a contest and ill send you a ski club sticker from my school that our own
JBLASKI made for my club.

Thank you so much for your help, and if you want create your own tribute video!!!

All submissions will be looked at and I will love them all

HAPPY SKIING!

I need to learn how to embed.. but i would deffinetly say that showing this clip^^ which is CR's part in seven sunny days, is key. i just watched it for the first time and it is such a good representation of him. The dialogue is great and i get chills at the end hearing him say "the joy i get from skiing, that's worth dying for".
