Ski Ballet is kind of the overused tidbit that ski people invoke when trying to capture the ridiculous skiing zeitgeist of the mid to late 80s to early 90s. Thankfully, ski ballet didn’t stand a chance once skiing started to get cool again in the mid 90s. But this doesn’t mean we shouldn’t celebrate it every now and again.
This clip is the best one I have ever seen. They fey man doing his routine looks like a truly tortured soul. Sort of the Marat Safin of ski ballet.
Behold.

I could see Gob doing a reenactment of this. The music he plays at some of his magic shows would be a good fit.
