Is 'Johnson' in the video a relation? Love your videos. Especially the Alta '74 one.

Ha....I've been off-balance many times but not in this video Doug. I don't know who played Johnson but Alan Ladd played Parker. All the best and have a great year of skiing. Mark.

No putting the real in reality. This is good quality technical explanations and demonstrations. It's not just beginner stuff. The equipment doesn't matter the essence of ski snow manipulation is there and that is what the new way to ski is.

Is this footage available for public domain

[@marksjohnson5]

Chris, I extracted this from Otto Lang's "Basic Principles of Skiing" video (from TOPICS entertainment), which was an official training film (No.11-168) for the U.S. War Dept in 1941.

@@ChrisAnthonyAdventur I would say no. I don't think there is a problem sharing it, but make sure you don't try to make money on it.
