The first volume is "The 1994 Winter Olympics Highlights Video." The other two deal with the headline-grabber of the Games, figure skating.
One of those is made up of highlights from the medal competition, and the other has highlights of the figure-skating exhibitions at the end of the games, when the medalists celebrated their art with their favorite routines, music and moves.
Each of these CBS Videos is listed at $19.98 and has a running time of one hour. Order by calling 1-800-494-6009.
The highlight reel includes Ukraine's Oksana Baiul's narrow victory over Nancy Kerrigan of the United States, and gold-medal performances by U.S. downhiller Tommy Moe, speedskaters Dan Jansen, Bonnie Blair and Cathy Turner, super giant slalom winner Diann Roffe-Steinrotter, as well as the classic three-world-record performance of Norway's speedskater Johann Olav Koss and Sweden's battle with Canada for the hockey gold.
The figure-skating competition has many highlights, most notably Kerrigan's narrow loss to Baiul and the third-place finish of Britain's 1984 Olympic ice-dancing champs, Jayne Torvill and Christopher Dean.
CBS Fox Video's other new sports videos include "NBA Guts & Glory" (45 minutes, $14.98), featuring the league's most courageous and inspiring moments.
On April 30 CBS Fox will come out with "Golf's Greatest Shots, Volumes I & II." The first reel features shots from the U.S. Open and British Open; the second offers footage from The Masters and PGA Championships.
Shots from other events by Lee Trevino, Jack Nicklaus, Tom Watson, Ray Floyd, Nick Faldo and Greg Norman are also included on these videos, which run 30 minutes and list for $14.98 each.
