Wrt your observations about preferring to watch female big-mountain skiers I feel the same about ski racing. If I want to demonstrate a point of racing technique to somebody I almost always pick a videos of an elite woman. To Cody’s point, their technique tends to be cleaner and “purer” in my experience, with less reliance on brute force. I also learn a lot more by watching womens’ racing.
BTW my facetious (but also halfway-serious) theory is that women have better technique because they actually listen to their coaches and each other.
I agree with this take, Patrick. The same is true of rock climbing/bouldering — men usually try and muscle their way up, while women are more likely to try and employ good technique, be balanced, and be efficient.
As a 55 year old guy who got back into skiing last year after what would be consider a 30ish year break, and I came back with the urgency of my Mid Life Crisis. I watched almost the whole Matchstick catalog this Spring to Fall first as You Tube snips and then as Entire Movies.
* Yearbook was so fun and the 15 to 20ish something boy / young man in me enjoyed a lot of the humor that is, well not ok in 2023 for many of the reasons you and Cody outlined.
* Intro: Just yes! And we all wished we could have taken that young lady to the PROM.
* The Sock and The Cheerleader segments will make me laugh out loud spontaneously just thinking about them.
* I watched the Shane segments on You Tube as Shorts before I knew who Shane was and how he ultimately died. Then I saw them in the movie as a whole. His segment while having nothing to do with Skiing and certainly Skiing that normal people can do was and is just Jaw Dropping. Even re-watching this week before the show just jaw dropping. Kinda like watching Fast and the Furious 8, then going out to drive in your parents 1987 Oldsmobile.
* Lots of 15 year old boy insecurities to laugh at in this movie which just made it so awesome.
My question out of all of this is When / Why / How did skiing moguls stop being cool? or is Matchstick and TGR just not doing that type of content?
Great thoughts, Peter – thanks for sharing.
And equally great question about mogul skiing. I don’t know if it’s cool or not … but I know that in my ski life in Taos and Crested Butte, we’re skiing at least some moguls every single day. And we will definitely be featuring some mogul-centric films on Blister Cinematic. Stay tuned!
