Starting off in the Alps of Switzerland, a whirlwind Technicolor tour of the choice skiing places in Switzerland, Germany, Austria, and Norway is presented to the accompaniment of swirling snow, lofty peaks, and skiing enthusiasts of all sizes, shapes, and forms streaking down frosty mountain sides. The climax is a ski jumping contest where the soaring techniques of Europe's finest jumpers are carefully studied. There are the usual number of spills and thrills, capped by a new world's mark being set by an 18-year-old from Finland.
