While compiling a short list of the best ski/snowboard films EVER for our annual SnowRider’s Issue (on stands Oct. 18) we came across some real gems.

Mostly there involve late-80’s ski legend Glen Plake, who is (still) the man.

Here are a few others that are on the list. What’s missing?

Blizzard of AAHH’s (Blizzard Cinema Works-Greg Stump, 1988)

Further (Teton Gravity Research, 2012) Also, Deeper, but this one’s better.

Immersion (Matchstick Productions, 2002)

SnoWhat? (Warren Miller, 1993)
