This box set rocks. If you're a skier or boarder you will love this boxed set. My favorite is Cold Fusion- Just the trailer of this movie gives me goose bumps. It make me want to get online right away and start planning my next ski vacation. My wife makes fun of me because I can watch these movies over and over and never get tired of them. If you love the snow and like watching pro-riders rip the back-country then these video's are for you. Also- being a Marine I really liked the cold weather training that Warren's team did at Bridgeport, CA with the Marines! OOOH RAAHH!!!!

This is not supposed to be instructional! These are awesome movies to watch on Friday nights in the winter or Saturday nights after a long day of skiing. The best skiers on earth show their stuff in places we never thought existed. Worth every penny.

This is a great collection of the Warren Miller DVD's. If you dont already have the single DVD's, BUY THIS COLLECTION NOW. These films are amazing wether you ski or board. These are great DVD's at a great price, I suggest you buy asap.

Unlike newer versions of the films, Warren Miller still had say in the production so they are actually good. I love the Warren Miller series, but the new films produced without his help are just not the same. Get this box, you'll enjoy.

I would have given this one a 5 but the DVD, Ride, dropped it to a 4. Ride, is a sub par job which feels as if it is trying to mimic a Warren Miller film. All the other DVDs in this collection are great and make the package worth the price.

For anyone who is really into winter skiing, Warren Miller's films rock and outshine most other ski videos or films readily available on this subject. A prior reviewer of Warren Miller films stated that you don't learn much about ski technique from his films. But I would disagree, while they are not true instructional videos, they definately show what can be done on skis, boards, or whatever snow riding gear you prefer, if you have the will and desire to go WOW. My kids started watching Miller's films and as a result of seeing what one can do with a good pair of skis or a good board they have been inspired to move from regular downhill skiing to terrain park and extreme skiing. It has been wonderful to watch their confidence increase on the slopes, and it is mainly due to the WOW impact that Warren Miller's videos have had.
As far as this particular package of Warren Miller films goes, this package of videos is great, and contains terrific shots of extreme skiing and boarding; but unfortunately, it does not represent Miller's best work -- my favorite Warren Miller videos are Snowriders and Snowriders 2 -- and the films in this package include a lot of footage from those prior Warren Miller films.
But for anyone looking for WOW footage of extreme skiing, go with any Warren Miller product of the last ten years, including "Storm," "Coldfusion," "Ride," and "Fifty."

Warren Miller movies are for pure entertainment. He beautifully composes a wide array of environments and riders into a work of art, and it shouldn't be too hard to appreciate his amazing film-making ability.

Great snow collection of DVD's to have on while doing something else. Music is great and visuals are superb!

Ordered this video set just in time for our annual Christmas party, here in NW Florida it gets a little chilly but with a bartender, band, a bonfire and a couple Warren Miller videos to totally ignite the event with some of the finest blizzard blasting, steep mountain trail blazing the most beautiful snow covered mountains and scenery anywhere on earth by the greatest skiers in the world makes for Awesome conversation for our annual event here in the 'sunshine'state couldn't do it without ya Warren!!

I watch this pack of movies all the time. It is simply the best compilation of skiing and action footage around. Spectacular soundtracks, amazing camera work, incredible journeys throughout the world. Pretty much everything you would want in a stunt or action film of this genre.
