JP Auclairs street segment in All I Can Was insane. Ever since watching that i've been slowly transitioning to skiing.
 
I think tebby bear crisis was the most influential for me. it wasnt the first ski video i had seen but it had the biggest impact on my skiing.
 
I'm going to go a little more new school and say Stept's "Weight". I think that after that film, everyone and their mom was hitting urban.
 
For me everyday is a Saturday got me more pumped on the freestyle aspect of skiing. Such a sick vibe through the whole film that got me stoked.
 
Idea and believe. Made all the superpros of the time want to prove themeselves in the BC.

To this day, Believe is the best pow/pillows/minigolf movie ever.

TGR - Further and MSP - Ski Movie I and II

Watching Candide send chads gap in further... I replayed that part of the movie so many times.

TBC and 1242 were formative movies. IDEA signaled one of the big sea changes in skiing, probably one of the most influential films of late.

Sorry for double post but also

Long Story Short (corey vanular's part is agruably the best park\urban part ever)

long story short was my first ski movie as well, so i will always remember it. colby west's segment was my favorite, loved the counter on how many times it took him to grease that ridiculous rail

The vibe in everyday is a Saturday will always get me hyped on skiing
 
most influential i'd go for Few words, discovered a whole new side of skiing with it, favourite by far though has to be eye trip. Never got over that movie, still absolutely crazy today
 
For me it was Seth Morrison's segment in Ski Movie II. That guy just skis down the gnarliest things you have ever seen and flips off some monstrous cliffs.
 
GNAR for the history lesson, and personally MSP's The Way I See It - first ski movie I ever saw. Changed my life for the better.
 
i know I'm a youngin but mike hornbeck's sunny segment. made me see skiing in a whole different light
 
I think the recruitment had a pretty big impact on me because of the plot and storyline. pretty different.
 
All you young fools don't even remember State of Mind, the first Poor Boyz movie. I can't describe how cool it was seeing people land backwards was the first time, and how out of nowhere that video was.

Pura Vida was incredible (especially opening seg with Kreitler), and the other big life-changer was Nobis' first TGR segment--I think it was in Harvest. He made big turns in Alaska and the next year everyone was skiing twice as fast. It's too bad no one skis to surf punk anymore, either--
 
EDIAS for sure, first movie i watched and it was unreal, i was like 14/15 at the time and i've been hooked on freeskiing since
 
At least for me I think my favorite ski film ever was either All I Can or Few Words. Both JP and Candide were such strong influences in freeskiing back in the 90s. They practically invented it (more Candide) IMO. But yeah definitely those two films were big influences for me and probably many others.
 

Few Words- a Candide Thovex film

This film is a masterpiece, changed skiing into something different for me. Worth the watch.
 
I grew up watching Warren Miller movies from the 80s/90s, so that's where I got started, but it was MSP's Ski Movie that got me hooked.

Evan Raps/Skogen Sprang, Vincent Dorion and JP's are all some of my favourite segments of all time.
