Ski Porn

[Sparky]

There have been several threads on how folks deal with the off season. Most of the related posts mention ski porn, so I though I would do a quick inventory of my collection.

Warren Miller
Cold Fusion
Storm
Ride
Fifty
Freeriders
Snowriders
SnowridersII
Steeper and Deeper
Off The Grid
Impact
Ski Time
Journey
Higher Ground
Born to ski
Black Diamond Rush
Endless Winter
Ski Country

Meatheads
Schooled
Epoch
Born From Ice
Snow Gods
Wanderland


After looking at this list I think I might have a problem. I mean I realy do have a life, but this collection helps me get through the long months of summer.

Is there anybody out there as addicted as I?

Any other recommendations?

During the off season I tend to watch ski porn almost everyday that I'm at home, I watch it much less during the season. The only ski porn I have, though, are all the Meathead films and a DVD full of episodes of "The Mountain Report" that I taped off cable and burned to DVD. MR is not really ski porn it's a cable show that picks a region, such as the Catskills etc. and reports on a few of the resorts. It helps the jones by showing a lot of skiing and riding.

Check out the Matchstick Production movies. I'm partial to them and own a bunch of them. They too help me through the off season. I too have all the Meathead films and a couple Warren Miller and Teton Gravity Research movies.

I also found this site and started creating the soundtracks to the movies on my iTunes. My buddies and I rock out on the long car rides!

Teton Gravity Research Lost and Found was a REAL nice movie..

 

[tcharron]

Anomaly kicked arse as well. There's sneak peaks of the jump they did in the movie that was a world record jump. The guy was nuts..



Actually found the snippet of the jump. That's just stupid insane.

I've got to get the Lost and Found flick...Bang Camaro is in the sound track. The boys toured around with the moive last fall.

Steep was a really good flick. Definitely recommended. Not pure ski porn, a real story of the rise of backcountry skiing in Alaska. Beautiful porn scenes, though.

Don't get me wrong. Warren Miller, TGR, and Meathead stuff, etc. is cool, but much of that is so far removed from reality in terms of places or how I'll ever ski that it's just difficult to relate. I enjoy re-watching my silly little amateur vids more. They let me relive my season and bring back a lot of great memories of skiing with other AZers.

Plus they are edited to make Greg look really good in the bumps .. I want to see the out takes.. Oh that is why you will never see any good video of GSS skiing .. because there isn't any .. :razz:

I typically joke that I edit my vids to make everyone look as radical as possible. Some of us need more work than others.

I can't watch ski porn in the summer, it makes me want to get out there. Having credit cards with nice limits is dangerous in these situations!!!
Still want to hit South America one day.

What about Wonderland? That was shot at all New England ski areas. I loved it. Hope they release more like it this year.

Hope to make it on one of your AZ vids next season.


I have somewhat similar feelings regarding the WM & TGR films, but not the Meathead films. Actually the only ski porn I currently own is Born From Ice. The only aditional porn I plan on picking up in the near future are additional Meathead films. The reason why I enjoy BFI and anticipate enjoying their other films is because it's all pretty much 100% attainable skiing in my lifetime. Much of the footage from BFI, I look at and know I've skied those lines on Mansfield or at Jay, MRG etc. I don't see the huge hucks and think man, I gotta get that and DEFINITELY know the park stuff is way out of my league. However, plenty of the slack country stuff are lines I have and will ski again.

I LOVE the whole Meathead concept. Serious Stoke for what's available to all of us here on AZ with relative ease of access if you want it bad enough.

I like ski porn in all forms even if it's stuff I'll never ski. It's visually entertaining although msp filma are easily my favorite. warren miller movies have sucked for a while now but I still like to watch them every year.

MSP=Match Stick Production, I think they are the best in just about every aspect. Watch Push for starters-good stuff. They've been at it for awhile now. I still watch Meathead movies just because they are good at what they do under tough circumstances.
