Not sure if its just me, but do you guys have a specific edit that got you into freeskiing?

Amongst many, one I remember quite clearly was the "Team Armada Hits New Zealand" edit from late 2006.



Post up your guys edits that got you into the sport

Focused is the movie that turned me from dabbling in snowboarding back to skiing and towards twins. But Warren Miller's "extreme winter" from the early 90's or maybe earlier is what got me into skiing in the first place.

Before I got into skiing, I was a snowboarder for many years.  I just went on Youtube one day and searched skiing and a video with the tag "twin tip steeze" or something like that came up.  I watched the video and I was amazed at how sick skiing looked and immediately wanted to try it out.  Soon after, I found out that the edit I had watched was Tom Wallisch's Superunknown.  I didn't even know who he was or how many people respected him at the time haha.

Same for me! I remember back in 7th grade (1998) my buddy Noah brought PBP's 13 and Degenerates into school. We watched one during lunch break and one during art class. I remember seeing Toben Sutherland doing a Venus flytrap before I had any idea what the hell that was. Totally blew my mind.

Noah's brother Josh was the source of the movies, without him I don't know how the hell we would have figured out all this cool shit you could do on skis. A few weeks later Noah brought some unknown movie over to my house that he promised would be entertaining, his brother Josh was in it. I was skeptical as the movie only came in a blank white VHS sleeve with no cover design or details whatsoever. I picked up the VHS tape and it had a little sticker on it that read "Balance". A true inspiration for me, in fact I don't think I'd be doing what I am now if it wasn't for seeing Balance.

TGR's Harvest was an early one for me as well. Very cool flick, also probably the only legit movie to ever use a Phish song in a ski movie haha.

Ski Movie. then a few years later going to see the premier of Focused and getting to meet Seth and Shand really had a big influence on me as a kid.

What got me into freeskiing was being better than my friends who were two years older. Then watching movies came next. Ski Movie 3. The whole video got me stoked everytime. Yeah that was in 2002.
