First and foremost, congratulations as fuck!!

  • My life is better now than ever, to be honest.

I think this is a dream that sits deep in people who spend their days on skis.

Interview: Martin Solhaugen and the American dream

I have watched the Level 1 movies since “day one” and my stoke’o’meter is blasted!

This is huge for those who know what it means!

=) For me personally I think it might be as far as I can get.

So in other words: “Fucking big!”

there must have been some long days to collect the votes?

Yes, it has been absolutely nerve-racking.

Because it meant so much for me to get this chance.

I have dreamed about it, and gone 100% for it.

“10,000 votes in total, all together.”

You’ve some experience with marketing too, haven’t you?

Hehe, that’s right!

Something I feel I’ve gotten use for now.

I have learned to pack your message into a sense that the targeted audience can understand.

For out your own edit, who was your favorite among the semifinalists?

Simen Gjelsvik without doubt!

When are you leaving, and where?

What punch in of elements do you hope to get to hit over there?

They actually suggested that we should draw the coolest feature we can imagine, and send it to them!

So on a par with last years features, I think this will make for a crazy cool concept!

I’m hoping that they will realize my Loop rail idea!

What do you think about Superunknown concept?

And it has gotten better over the years.

It was really last year’s concept that closed me into participating.

jibs, trannys, tree taps, and so on!

Of course, I have seen all of them.

Jonah Williams is absolutely sick and the level is where it should be!

Although it is certainly debatable whether some of semifinalists should have gone directly to the final.

No one has the same opinions, hehe.

Is there a chance that Martin Solhaugen may become the new Level 1 star in the future?

But I will fight and do my best, so you should never say never!

Afterbang wish you good luck in the States and a good trip!

Some shou-outs to end?

wow, that list is long, but some notable is:

  • My family.
