I sat down with Lucas to find out.
He started skiing young though and started racing and then freeskiing at his local hill, Flottsbro.
Its the same with dry or indoor slopes in England or anywhere without a good natural skiing environment.
He’s found his way to some perfect skiing environments now.
As a kid it was awesome, I just wanted to see as much skiing as possible.
Its cool when you see your favourite pro doing something other than just their one segment every year.
That helped when we made our own ski-movies later.
Speaking of his own movies…
But how did the young Scandinavians who have transformed skiing first get started?
Well, it started way back at school.
It was a good decision for himself and ultimately for anyone who loves creative and fun skiing.
It was in the classroom where The Bunch were brought together.
Thats where I met Magnus, Peyben, Jens and everybody.
We just skied so much because we thought it was super-fun.
We were all making our own videos, putting them on NS and Freeride.se (the Scandinavian NS).
Everybody had their own camera and made videos on Movie Maker.
I think thats whats special about The Bunch, everybody brought their own style.
Trying to be the best in all elements; skiing, filming and editing.
We had three years of school and we were pretty much only doing that.
I dont watch any competitive skiing anymore though.
I prefer watching other things for inspiration.
It doesnt have to be skiing.
Art by LSM and Alric.
Or is he..?
Its just a whole new place to start experimenting.
Like indie music, but indie pow skiing!
Its not just big mountains and steep faces, like tree-skiing and out of bounds skiing.
I really like to be able to ski all types of terrain, its just really fun.
Growing up in the suburbs of Stockholm there was never any chance to ski powder.
So that makes it more special now.
Thats a passion of mine.
Its harder to notice with global warming, its just slowly getting warmer and warmer.
I think its cool because new stuff is happening all the time, its like a new renaissance.
I’m stoked to see what comes from LSM’s quest to have the best season ever.
Im gonna drop a video from there this fall.
Track:a Jamie XX song anything from In Colour album
Trick:Just a big straight air.
In the backcountry a big straight air to a powder landing is so fun.
