Logan Imlach is one of the countless pro skiers who supplement their ski career with hard labor.
The tradition of banging nails all summer to ski all winter is well-established practice in skiing.
Being a drilling engineer on an oil rig in the Alaskan outback is not.
I guess coming to that realization really helped me grow up.
Is Winston the greatest dog in the universe?-Magnus
Yes, yes he is.
For your Sunny segment, you drew inspiration from JP’s line in All I Can.
The worst time is anytime throughout the day that I think its later than it is.
How many times did you mess up while doing the abandoned building segment for Sunny?-.Rybak.
The skiing part wasnt that hard.
The redirect however was a different beast.
I had to come up to work the next day, so we had to stick with that one.
But what are you going to do?
Three locations, three riders, and three filmers.
3 filmers would hands down be Decker, Strassman and Mike Clarke (Berman would edit it again).
3 skiers would probably be Hornbeck, CLo, and Will.
I took the footage from that and sent it to Berman thinking nothing of it.
Then the whirlwind started and skiing came back as the forefront.
Would I have continued focussing on school if I hadnt blown my knee out?
Im not really sure.
But now that I have finished school, I wouldnt have done it any other way.
Whether its a degree or a trade, you gotta have something.
Who is your biggest inspiration in your skiing style?-Mr.Bishop
Anthony Boronowski.
He never forced anything man, all of his movements were so natural.
I feel like now days people try too hard to look casual, if that makes sense?
Would you?http://images.newschoolers.com/images/17/00/65/07/81/650781.jpeg-Mousseau
Yes.
Fantasies and SinRock are aight but most of the girls are busted.
Stay away from the Showboat and Crazy Horse unless you are into 45+ year old meth head strippers.
your skiing is very unlike any other person.
where do you get the inspiration to build your unique style ?–emile-
Tony, see above.
Will you ski with me up in Alaska?-lukemeahan.
I havent been back to either site since that day.
Stiff skis or soft?
Tall girls or short?
Screamin' or 360 Cossack?
Gaper day: onesie or spandex?
My dream job would be designing, building, and testing skis.
what was it like winning super unknown?-MaineLandCollab
Craziest experience of my life.
I still cant believe that it happened and Im still just soaking all of it in.
It never gets old meeting people I look up to.
Coming from AK, what turned you into a jib ninja and not a big mountain shredder?
Weather in Alaska sucks 90% of the time, so when the weather was shittty we would jib.
Plus jibbing is just so much more accessible for a young, broke teenager.
I still love the backcountry and skin around often when Im not filming.
Thats why the online medium worked waaaaay better for me personally.
Where did you get the idea for the frankenskis ?
Do you like the new format of superunknown?-tcurle
I thought it was sick.
In fact, I dont think there were even any park jocks there.
You’re an opinionated guy who doesn’t shy away from volatile discussions on the internet.
Especially since anyone mixing it up on an online forum is a jackass anyways.
That was session number 3 on that feature and all three of us were just beat.
When I got it I just collapsed out of exhaustion/happiness.
My most proud however wasnt even in any of the movies.
There was some miscommunication with the heli pilot and Berman though, so he missed most of the shot.
Its not nearly as gnarly in the shot as it was in person.
That or Peps enormous 5 in 1242.
I went apeshit when I saw that.
How tight are your pants now a days?-BikeMlatt42069
Not as tight as that one time.
We assumed they were just smoking weed and watching so we didnt think anything of it.
We were like What the fuck?
but then thought it would be funny to sling him in anyways because he looked like he was terrible.
So we did and he ate shit really bad and didnt want to hit it anymore.
This was shaping up to be that year.
Then I went to Finland and skied with those crazy little buggers.
They are more stoked on skiing than any one person Ive ever seen.
We filmed a whole segment in like 8 days, it was ridiculous.
Keep an eye out for a story on the trip in Freeskier, it should be hilarious.
How did you land your deal where you only work as an engineer in the summer?
who would win a monkey knife fight, decker or freedle?-HOTPOSSIE
Freedle.
Who do you think is on the come up in the ski industry?
Who’s the illest level 1 rider to work/shoot with?-BikeMlatt42069
Come up is Khai.
He is fucking sick.
Most fun to work with is the Dahrkness.
Economically, why import gas when we can produce our own?
Why not drill it here and supply ourselves as well as possibly export some of it?
We dont export shit anymore, and people wonder why were broke.
Are you the maverick of rail skiing?
-NattyIce1 Who is the goose of rail skiing?-NinetyFour
If Im Maverick then Winston is Goose.
Logan, working 3 on 3 off, do you ever find yourself out of skiing rhythm?
i mean that you spend 3 weeks skiing as much as possible and then go 3 weeks cold turkey.
how do you stay sane?-Calb3rt
Yeah, its really hard.
Talk about sketchy, haha.
What sparked your interest in photography, and now shooting film?
I guess I enjoy it because it locks a memory into time.
What do you like about NS that makes you frequent the forums?
So why NS?-gavinrudy
I just love Newschoolers.
The news is depressing.
Now that the trip is complete, what is your decision?
Where are you moving to!?
!-arcadebelts
Still not sure!
Maybe to your spare bedroom.
How’s your engineer career going?
