1981 CATALOG DESCRIPTION

Take a deep breath, dig your poles hard into the snow, push off...and you're speeding down a world class skiing course.

Stay low and glide gracefully through the turns because you're in a race against the clock. But don't cut the corners too sharply or you'll go tumbling! All the excitement of the Winter Olympics on a beautiful video snowscape.

• Up to six players

• Downhill and slalom course

• Jump moguls, edge through turns, race downhill

PRODUCTION NOTE

U.S. Ski Team Skiing was one of the games to be included on the Go For the Gold album cartridge

FUN FACT: A couple years after the game was finished, a Mattel programmer needed to take a look at the original APh source code. He was startled to find that all variables and subroutines were named with the vilest (and most creative) obscenities.
