WHAT'S YOUR FAVOURITE SKI OR SNOWBOARD FILM?

Claim – says so in the opening credits. Lives it all the way through. And a banging soundtrack. RIP McConkey. Nick

Tough one. Flip a coin between Matchstick’s Ski Movie 1 and Ski Movie 2 – mainly due to the timing of when they were released, and where I was as a skier then. Both superb. Honorable mentions go to Sweetgrass’ Valhalla and TGR’s Paradise Waits. Joe

I was going to say Out Cold but then realised it’s probably more non- fiction films you meant. The Art of Flight or Further off the top of my head. Oliver

Any one of the several which feature James Bond on skis. Janet

Eddie the Eagle. Lovejoy

Aspen Extreme – I’m lucky to have actually skied there. Jason

Claim – the best ski movie ever. John

The Streif – One Hell of a Ride! Dennis

The Heroes of Telemark. Chris

Chalet Girl. Danny

Cosmic Winter and Blizzard Obviously. Ross

Force Majeure – subtitled but nevertheless a great film. Caroline

The classic 1983 movie Apocalypse Snow by Didier Lafond. Mark

G.N.A.R. – Best line: “Just to let you know I’m the best skier on the mountain.” Pete
