The 25-year-old Swede took the ski world by storm, winning Level 1s SuperUnknown.

He has since gone on to make waves in the ski industry.

But did you know he learned to ski with the help (or not) of a few dogs?

The Magnus Granér Interview

He does, however, remember the dogs!

They werent too hyped on me because I always fell, because I was super little.

They didnt really want to stop, so they would just keep going.

Freestyle was my thing on a snowboard, thats all I was thinking about.

He later made the switch to two planks and has never looked back.

Some things never change.

The Bunch was a breath of fresh Scandinavian air to many people in the ski-world.

I wondered if Magnuss boarding as a youngster had helped to influence their unique style of butters and presses.

Snowboarding definitely did affect my skiing in one way or the other.

So what has inspired him?

He says that The Bunch guys themselves have actually always been his biggest inspiration.

Skiing together means that they have pushed each other.

I saw a few ski movies, but I was never too much of a ski film nerd.

I walked past a store and saw a sign that said: Ski with Jacob and TJ!

so got to ski a full day with them in Are.

That was definitely a huge moment for me.

They were throwing cork 9s, Id never really seen tricks like that.

I just thought I want to be like those guys!

I remember they were so cool as well, everything they did was so cool to me.

I skied with Henrik Harlaut and Phil Casabon this weekend.

Theyre great teachers, not only in skiing, but theyre also just nice people.

Skiing is blessed to have role models like them.

Magnus at the White Festival.

It was like a super wild FMX show!

I got so gassed up from the energy of the arena.

Now Skiing in Zermatt.

You might think maybe I missed a grab or whatever.

I didnt invent the concept, but Im preaching it.

Its the concept of life, just being more present.

When you’re Now Skiing, if you falloffthe rail, you just keep shredding.

You don’t think oh f*ck, why did I do that?

you’re able to just think oh whoops Im off the rail but Im on my noses!

wow, Im spinning around!

Sh*t, Im doing a 360!

I just invented a new trick!!

Wow- Never stop swerving

Magnus doesnt want to claim the concept as his own, its an ancient concept.

Im just trying to inspire people to get on the Now Skiing thing.

Im only touching the surface now but its so much deeper, theres so much more to explore.

Deeper into the moment I want to tap more into the source on skis.

WellI do want to ski more powder and just shred the whole mountain.

Away from skiing, Magnus has a new passion.

Lately Ive been climbing a lot in a climbing hall in Stockholm.

Thats been awesome, with a big crew that Ive met recently.

Thats a big new hobby of mine.

The learning curve is really smooth.

With climbing, you’re able to climb a route on your first day.

A lot of my homies have recently started and were super about it.

Its easy to learn but difficult to master, so the whole process is just fun.

Theres always more to process.

Magnus' Favorite…

Trip:Not really a place.

Skiings not about the place you go to.

Trick:Left turn then right turn.

That is my favorite thing to do on skis.
