Videos of the Week #3 2020/21 | On Quality and Quantity

More or less

In fact, even the best pictures from the deepest bluebird day eventually wear out. In the long run, it takes more than action, upbeat music and slogans. Maybe it's art and maybe it's called cinematography if you don't just like ski films because of their performance data. Personal reference and preferences and soul connection (!) are added on top!

In any case, I took more from today's selection of three minutes than from 42, so please be careful how you invest your time here!

Quality first: Yann Rausis

A very topical concept at the moment: skiing alone. Wonderfully implemented.

Best Cliffs of FWT

This is a high concentration of deep and wide cliffs. The FWT must provide material, as well as the VdW!

Stereotypes

This one isn't high quality, but it's actually funny!

How to with Xavier

He's just too cute! Even as a skier, you like to look at him.

Quantity in the end: pillow fight

The snow is deep, the pillows are soft: there is more jumping than skiing. Sometimes there's a trick or a ski tour, but mostly it's hopping. I must have lost the plot then: what did that have to do with the weather forecast and La Nina?

The people behind the article

Written by

Sebastian Müller

I grew up skiing in the Bavarian Forest and then, during my college years, I became a freerider and ski tourer. When I arrived in Trieste in 2019, I had to admit that skis with a 115mm waist width aren’t always the best choice in the Dolomites and the Julian Alps. I’ve been working for Powderguide since 2019 as a meteorologist, developer of PG-Weather, and former ski video specialist. Val Saisera is my favorite place for ski touring. I bake bread, apple strudel, and frico.

Videos of the Week #2 2020/21 | A few looks back

11/27/2020 • Sebastian Müller

Like the weather, like the VdW. It's been a while since the first hopeful snowfalls, so early winter video production has come to a bit of a standstill. Apart from a fresh patrol, we take a look back: in two season edits and in a gem from the old days. Ordered by ascending sight, with the best at the end. Have fun!

Welcome to the new VdW season! Spectators are not the rule at our games anyway and the world probably needs moving images to dream and indulge more than ever. And hopefully our beloved heroes, and those who want to become heroes, will always be able to show us all the perfect white mountain world freely and without restrictions.
