    "Classic" is 'classic'
  

*by S***T on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on July 2, 2010*

This is trip back through time, showing the development of skiing from the 1930s and 40s through the 60s and early 70s. Lang's films show what early ski equipment looked like, how it functioned and why early skiers had to be real athletes. Excellent production and close-ups of how early equipment looked and worked.  Jay's films are quite similar to each other, but give an interesting and humorous look at the development of ski areas and equipment, as well as different ski techniques as time moved along. Barrymore's contributions are great to watch and show expert skiers skiing lines that many of the skiing public could actually ski -- as opposed to jumping cliffs and skiing extreme terrain as is usually shown in today's films. "Ski Bums" alone is worth the cost of this set. Interesting history you'll never see elsewhere. And, as always, promptly shipped by Amazon.

    Great ski flicks from the past
  

*by J***D on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on December 4, 2010*

Wonderful films from the 1960's. I got to know Dick Barrymore on a summer ski trip South America in 1960s, but had lost touch with him in recent years. He was a great guy and loads of fun to be with. I think his ski cinematography remains the standard by others are to be measured.It's great fun to watch the skiers cut through powder on skinny skis and Arlberg technique. However, if one looks closely the rudiments of what has become modern powder skiing skills are evident. An entertaining evening - to be repeated each November. One of the disks was unplayable - Amazon took it back.

    What a ski movie should be --The pure fun of sking
  

*by R***E on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on March 23, 2007*

This is a wonderful collection of ski movie classics. It brings back great memories.  As a kid, I remember going to see a John Jay movie in Albany, NY in the early 60's. His drole humor and home movie feel makes it fun to watch all over again.  The 1960 Winter Olympic footage at Squaw Valley, Dick Barrymore's  "The last of the Ski Bums" and Otto Lang's classic B&W movies are worth adding to your collection.  These movies are a reminder of skiings rich history. It puts the emphasis on the joy, the exhilaration and the pure fun of skiing. You won't be disappointed.
