Stuff

I have some very old wooden skis on display and some ski magazines from the fifties but my favorite item is a video I bought from the New England Ski Museum.

It's called Der Weisse Rausch (White Ecstasy) and stars Leni Riefenstahl. Filmed in 1931, it's a joy to watch. The skills displayed by these free-heelers is truly amazing. I've watched it more than a dozen times.

My skins. Made me realize what skiing should be, and gave me access to many places I would have never otherwise seen. I have a stronger connection to where I live because of it.
