Customer Rating:      Summary: Great Documentary Comment: I really do think this is one of the best documentaries ever made. It has so many beautiful panorama's and insane stunts that even a non-skier would love this movie!
Customer Rating:      Summary: great doc for skiers that know Comment: Blu-ray is great, but the informative story on comb's life, on it's own, made it worth it to me.
Customer Rating:      Summary: must see... Comment: This one of those movies that is a must if you love big mountain steep skiing. It covers the subject from the early days through the present. There is no time wasted in the terrain park, it's all in the really big mountains of the world. Watch it, then watch it again to see all that you missed the first time.
Customer Rating:      Summary: steep Comment: This movie is amazing!From a non skier to a powder hound like me, this movie won't fail to inspire!
Steep tells the story of extreme skiing from the fifties through to the current day. It follows the lives of some of the skiing worlds most groundbreaking figures, and in some cases, tells the story of their deaths.
Jaw dropping cinematography. Awe inspiring scenery. Fluid and captivating storytelling.
Need I saw more? This movie belongs on every skiers shelf, or should I say in every skiers DVD player. I've watched it at least a half a dozen times in the two weeks I've owned it.
You should too.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Too abrupt - clips and pretty boring Comment: How long can you watch folks make some jumps and then others drone through excessive dialogue? After, it is'nt the skiiers minds on display, its their physical prowess and courage no doubt but some of the conversations are really terribly sophomoric and perfect for passing out on the couch, funny that should happen watching a ski movie. The worst part is you see some heavy powder skis, you see the mountain tearing up and coming down right behind the skiier and the film cuts away to some other guy doing overdone backflips somewhere. The elegance and art of skiing is lost and one has this feeling of never really seeing a full run. Youtube posts are much better. A bit of a waste of money and time. Well, the producers made some revenue since I bought a few of these. Verdict: dont bother, go to youtube, search for extreme skiing, ski jumps etc. much better content and fully loaded clips

From the sheer cliffs of Grand Teton to the treachery of Chamonix France to the untouched Alaskan peaks of Valdez these extremers sacrifice their lives for a thrill but what a thrill it is. Fantastically beautiful images of the most magnificent peaks on the globe along with devastating avalanches and fatal spills only serve to push them harder. But you're about to discover -- not everyone who goes up the mountain -- returns.System Requirements:Running Time: 90 minutesFormat: DVD MOVIE Genre: DOCUMENTARIES/BIOGRAPHY Rating: PG UPC: 043396238787 Manufacturer No: 23878
