The Art Of Skiing
0 views
Goofy, staying at the Sugar Bowl resort, demonstrates the basics of downhill skiing, which the titles and announcer insist is pronounced “SHEEing”. The equipment is, of course, of the era. As you can imagine, Goofy has much trouble keeping his skis parallel and pointing downhill. The final ski jump conveniently lands Goofy right back in bed.

The short that introduced the Goofy holler — the falling yell that has been reused in Disney films, theme parks and video games ever since, and is one of the most recognisable sound effects in animation. It is also one of the best of the How To films: the narrator's insistence on the correct Norwegian pronunciation is a running joke that never stops paying off.
