Rating: Summary: Great Big mountain and new school Review: After getting quite a few "new school" ski movies Global Storming stands out as one of the best.Lots of big mountain and a good new school segment. As is the fashion in "extreme sports" movies, there is a soundtrack heavy on punk music. However this isn't the case for every segment, and the music is almost perfectly matched for each skier/segment.

Rating: Summary: Very Sweet Review: Excellent skiing, excellent cinematography, and really excellent soundtrack. Great use of chapters so you can replay exactly who/what you want to see. A bahgan price. If you've read this far you need to own this.

Rating: Summary: Not as good as I expected after reading the reviews Review: Having bought this video on the 5-star reviews by all the Amazon reviewers, I was expecting an epic ski movie along the lines of "The Blizzard of Oz." Although the movie is good, I don't think it comes close to any of the Greg Stump videos. Ironically, it seems as if this movie is a rip-off of some of Stump's original, cutting edge films. In fact, I would say it is a cross between Stump's videos and my own homemade ski videos, which admitedly, I parodied in my own flicks. I am not totally down on Global Storming. The skiing, scenery and soundtrack are pretty good, although some of the photography and sound quality isn't top notch at times - no DTS. I just didn't find it too original -- i.e. I thought it was basically a generic flick. It is good, however, to see a good ski movie on DVD. I have essentially scrapped my VHS and most of the tape that go with it.

Rating: Summary: global storming Review: If the opening sequence of this movie, with its Metallica soundtrack, doesn't get you pumped to go skiing, best you take up badmitton. The soundtrack is only gravy for this well- filmed ski movie, the locations will make you want to take a month off work and travel...(what doesn't make you want to take a month off work?) I particularly enjoyed the Telemarker who ripped 45*-50* slopes Lurk-style, old,old school! Get the DVD version, crank up the sound, and get ready to make some turns...
