Videos of the Week #12 2020/21 | La crème de la crème

The characters in ski films are as diverse as skiing itself: always the same and yet always different. This may mean that a protagonist can always ski and usually does so on snow, only the how, where and why differ. So in this episode we meet old and new heroes who live and film this eternally beautiful skiing in their own way.

No video can replace practical, real-life courses. But Xavier and all sorts of other institutions invite us to expand and refresh our knowledge. There's a bit of contest content to go with it!

In view of the northern congestion and the associated avalanche situation, we are also watching videos about avalanches here today. We cover a wide spectrum: from scientific-educational to case studies and VLOGs to music and film. The quality of the videos presented starts at educationally valuable, but steadily declines towards the end until it becomes unbearable. But the selection is large and you have been warned. So, despite all the fun in the powder, watch out!
