So if you were gonna sit down and watch a ski movie with your friends who don't ski, what movie would you put on? I'm thinking Refresh, good mix of everything, good big mountain segs and its got the history/storyline going.

The way i see it. So many moments where people are just like "wow" or "no way" during Pettits and almost all of the big mountain segs. Plus Colbys segment is hilarious and Bobby Brown throws a triple.

i can see where your coming from like for say if a skier has a super technical line a non skier wont really notice it but if they throw a backie of a 40 footer well then thatt sparks some interest.

GNAR. All my friends that don't even participate in snow sports absolutely love this movie. Which has then led to pro callouts all over my school. Which is hilarious.

Probably Eye Trip, because:

1. You don't have to be a skier to appreciate the awesomeness of the movie

2. It's the only ski movie I own

Definitely Like A Lion. It showcases a good history of the sport and how one of its biggest names has helped bring it to where it is today. My step mom doesn't ski and came to a premiere of it and thought it was amazing.

Like a Lion is a great movie, but it almost transcends what I think of as a ski movie... I was watching "Senna" the other week, and the whole time I was thinking, "Wow, if this movie won at Sundance, someone needs to submit Like a Lion to a few film festivals..."

Seriously good stuff, but its a way serious movie compared to the usual ski porn.
