Sondre Nordheim made a ski model that had a lot to say about how skis were later widespread and used. A ski maker from Morgedal in Telemark shows how skis were made in Sondre's time. From the time he goes out into the forest to find a suitable subject until he is finished with the skis, there is a lot of work that requires great accuracy. It is particularly difficult to get the bend on the ski tips to keep its shape. The film is based on a script by sports historian Jakob Vaage.
