Marius Otterstad
Marius likes to take matters into his own hands. He is not one to wait for a plan to work out, but one who leads the charge and creates exactly what he wants. Putting this process into everything he does in life, he has come into his own and has shown everyone the path he plans on taking with snowboarding. He rides fast, hard big—and he does it with an attitude that is fun to be around. 20,000 miles of travel later, Marius has put down an aggressive, powerful part that pushes the level of backcountry riding.

What is the wildest place you have ever been?
I went on a trip with a bunch of buddies to a place called Europia. We ended up at a techno dance party on the beach that went all night long. The alcohol was flowing, the babes were hot as hell and everyone was having a sick ass time. Then these pink Pegasus came out of nowhere, we jumped on them and flew away… Then I woke up! Europia was a crazy place! Other then that, Salt Lake City can be pretty crazy…Not!
Style: who has it?
Everyone has style. People just have different styles. I prefer a mix between Sir Mix-a-Lot and Motley Crew!
NCW? Tell us whatever you want about the film?
I wish I could, but I haven't seen it yet. I'm going to go ahead and say that it’s sick as hell though!
Best story of another team rider?
When I put cheese and bacon under the foot beds of Yan's shoes in Revelstoke. He still doesn't know about it.
When you’re not shredding you’re doing what?
I shred for life bro! I shred the skate park, the soccer field, with my girl, the golf course, barbecues and the surf!
What do you want to be doing in ten years?
An engineer for a biotech company discovering better, less costly and more efficient ways of producing food and medicine for less fortunate people in the world.
