Straighten up the first impressions.

-Do you mean that?

-Yes.

Now?

OK...

-Have you ever driven a snowscooter?

-No.

It's so pretty here.

It looks like a postcard.

I guess everyone knows

everyone here, right?

Yes, it's a pretty small place.

I moved here myself nine years ago.

From Hovseter.

It took a while for me

to get used to it.

Things seems strange

when you're from a big city and all.

I think you'll like it in time.

Hey, don't look so depressed.

Christ...

Sh*t... This is all wrong.

Gaute is my boyfriend.

I can't...

You could...

What's up, guys?

What's up, Mikkel?

Were you at the top with Nina?

-If I where at the top with Nina?

-ls there an echo here?

I saw Nina driving down

five minutes ago.

I've been here all alone.

-Didn't I see you downtown with Nina?

-I don't know what the hell you saw.

Are you sure Aslak isn't your b*tch?

You seem close.

You don't look at her.

Stay away, OK?

Stay away from Nina and this slopes.

OK?

I'll get you down.

-Get on my back.

-That's likely...

Don't be so damn stubborn.

Get on my back.

-Forget it.

-Get on my back, goddammit!

You know,

snowboarding is all about going down.

-Have you been doing this a lot?

-From before you were born, sonnyboy!

Just make yourself at home.

Is that you?

Topanga Beach, California, Mikkel.

Here...

Sit down.

I didn't know

you were such a great snowboarder.

You can make me

a good snowboarder.

I'm a nobody in this place

if I suck at snowboarding.

-You can make me good.

-In that case, you sucked before too.

-What?

-You have no desire to be

a good snowboarder.

No, that's the only thing I desire.

No, you want people to like you.

And you want to

be a part of the hip crowd.

You have to be yourself.

There's a strength

in being yourself, Mikkel.

I've been myself the whole time.

But that doesn't work.

I don't mind being

your snowboarding coach.

-But that's not what you need.

-How do you know what I need?

I don't want to coach you

so you can be just another poseur.

One who doesn't

understand what it's all about.

To hang loose...

Chill out...

Go down...

Not this, but this...

Not this...

Hey dude,

remember your board.

If it's so important being good,

maybe you should bring it with you?

Nina...

Nina!

-Don't follow me.

-I need to speak to you.

I can't talk to you, OK?

-You can't pretend nothing happened.

-Yes, I can!

Come on.

You can't tell Gaute or anyone

that we kissed.

What happened yesterday,

don't count.

Gaute is my boyfriend, so just...

Stay away, OK?

I'll walk out first. And then

you count to 100 before you go out.

I can't meet you anymore.

Tommen!

-Tommen!

-Here.

-My ecological children.
