Nobody was asking for pair ski jumping. The sport didn't exist. Mashima invented it anyway, animated it into being, and made you believe it could work. The movie sells you on an impossible idea through pure commitment to the bit, treating a made-up sport with the same technical precision it deserves if it were real. You walk out convinced that somewhere, someone should actually try this.

Pair ski jumping is presented as a brand new form of the sport in this CG animated film by Riichiro Mashima. Framed as a promotional piece for the discipline, the movie uses computer graphics to show off what pair ski jumping could look like and what its possibilities might be. With its Comedy and Sports labels, expect a playful, tongue-in-cheek sports showcase rather than a conventional story.
