        Shanghai Six

        Shanghai Six is one of the best ski movies ever made. Period. Take incredible urban rails and mix it with some insane backcountry kickers along with some of the best skiers, new and old, and you have one of the best representations of the sport when it was made, even now. The editing is great throughout the entire movie with creative ways to introduce sponsors and athletes. The top segments include Corey Vanular, Travis Redd, Tanner Rainville, Crichton and the urban friends segment, Craig Coker, Liam Downey, and Steele Spence. Also notable are Loic Callomb Patton’s segment where he destroys the step up to step down feature at Keystone and John Symms segment.

        Editing 10
        Music 9
        Urban 10
        Big Mountain 2.5
        Overall skiing 9.5
        Overall 10

        +Steele Spence’s comeback and best segment to date(he does something else than boot grabs and does a switch 7 in the backcountry). Creative editing. Craig Coker’s segment and the wall ride. Insane rails.
        -I’ve been sitting here for 5 minutes trying to think about something negative about this movie. Dammit, level 1, thanks for wasting 5 minutes of my life. I’ve got nothing.


        Keep in mind, my little ratings system is adjusted for the year it was made. So dont compare a rating 7 from the 1999-2000 ski movies to the 2007-2008 ski movies
