Default Good ol' days of XC skiing in Finland

I did see that name but I couldn't figure out whether he was one of the
producers or making a cameo appearance. I figured somebody else in Finland
had the same name, because I don't remember hearing him doing film
production. Maybe somebody in this group from Finland knows the answer?

Geez, that's a classic - great video. Did you notice that one of the

credits
on the film is the great runner, Paavo Nurmi? Some still say he may have
been the greatest of all time - compared to the rest of the world at that
time, may be true.

Check out this 1953 ski school b/w film short. This is what people used

to
do before the days of cable tv and lycra uniforms. Kind of nostalgic.

All
you old Sierra Clubbers at Claire Tappan lodge will probably relate.
