snowhow 1,451 Report post #1 Posted September 30, 2013 (edited) SKI RACER - 1969 World Cup -(full length) http://vimeo.com/18127870# A Summit Films Production made Ski Racer in 1969, 39 years ago. I watch the film today and wonder about all the choices that go into making a film. There is no traditional narrative, no singular event was portrayed; rather I was trying to use the cinematic process to convey the visceral element of ski racing and its nuances, in particular the emotional dichotomy between severe racing competition among individuals and the more reflective joy of free skiing. I wanted to create a cinematic equivalent to all this.As Dumeng Giovanoli says in the film, “I like to race because I like to be better than my friend… to go faster than him. But when the racing season is over, I go back home and ski for myself… free, in powder, it’s like you fly… that’s really skiing not racing. Racing is something different, much different.”The film is impressionistic, it treats Slalom, Downhill and Free Skiing as separate experiences with different emotions. Fragments of many different races are edited together to create nature of each discipline. The significance and the appeal of Ski Racer probably lies more in the film making than the subject matter. It was perhaps the first film to combine the irreverent energy of rock music, optical effects and complex quick cut editing to create a transcendent subjective representation of racing. I avoided traditional narration in favor of using the very personal voices of the racers themselves. Billy Kidd, Jean Claude Killy, Spider Sabich, Dumeng Geovanolli, Karen Budge, Karl Schranz, and many others, seemed to welcome the chance to express their motivations and feelings of what racing meant to them.The film is reflective of the times. The ferment of late sixties is echoed in the interlacing of music from The Grateful Dead, Steve Miller, Mike Bloomfield, and Indian Ragas with the ski action.

Four years later at the 1992 Albertville Olympic Winter Games, he successfully defended his giant slalom title to become the first Alpine skier in Olympic history to win the same event twice. https://www.facebook.com/pages/aLpS-bEaCh/237934749564430 Edited October 3, 2013 by snowhow 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
snowhow 1,451 Report post #8 Posted October 3, 2013 (edited) http://youtu.be/XL-9qjcuo9M Watch as Switzerland's Vreni Schneider competes at the 1994 Lillehammer Winter Olympic Games, winning a silver medal to add to her her other 4 Olympic career medals. After winning two gold medals at the Calgary 1988 Olympic Winter Games, Vreni Schneider continued to dominate women's Alpine skiing in the years to come, but at the 1992 Winter Olympics she was hampered by a herniated disc and finished out of the medals. At the 1994 Lillehammer Games, however, she was back in full form. She earned a silver medal in the alpine combined event and a bronze in the giant slalom. Fifth after the first run of the slalom, Schneider attacked the second run with such intensity that she won the gold medal. Schneider was the first female Alpine skier to win three gold medals and the first to earn five total medals. https://www.facebook...237934749564430 Edited October 3, 2013 by snowhow 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mil 8,722 Report post #18 Posted February 18, 2014 (edited) Δεν ξέρω ποιοι θυμούνται αυτές τις εκπομπές για το σκι, τέλη δεκαετίας 80, αρχές 90. Αρχικά στο Sky, μετά στο Eurosport. Κάπου τότε απελευθερώθηκε η Ελληνική τηλεόραση από τα κρατικά δεσμά (μέχρι τότε είχαμε ΕΙΡΤ και ΥΕΝΕΔ, ξεκινάγαμε 17.00-18.00 με τον Εθνικό ύμνο, τελείωνε το πρόγραμμα περί τις 24.00, με φοβερές εκπομπές τύπου "Η σύγχρονη Εύα".......). Μετά ξεκινήσαμε και βλέπαμε κάποια δορυφορικά, μεταξύ των οποίων και το Eurosport. Κάθε Κυριακή (αν θυμάμαι καλά), είχε μία ωριαία εκπομπή για σκι, που μιλούσε για τους αγώνες του παγκοσμίου κυπέλλου, είχε snow report, κάτι που μου φαινόταν επιστημονική φαντασία. Τότε δεν υπήρχε internet, κινητό, όταν τηλεφωνούσαμε είχε παράσιτα ("στάσου να πάρω το μηδέν")..... οπότε η επικοινωνία με τον γύρω κόσμο για το τι είναι το σκι, τι γίνεται στις Άλπεις, ήταν μία γνώση επιπέδου ανώτερη και από διδακτορικού. Να μία εμπομπή, που αξίζει να της αφιερώσεις χρόνο να την δεις. Και κρίνοντας την μέσω των σημερινών μεταδόσεων της ΔΤ για την Ολυμπιάδα του 2014, βλέπουμε πόσο πίσω εξακολουθούμε να βρισκόμαστε, σε σχέση με το 1988 των μνημονιακών Ευρωπαίων: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bQlNjIAlr8s Edited February 18, 2014 by mil 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
