In 2008, Ian Compton moved his life from Vermont to Salt Lake City, Utah, in pursuit of a professional skiing career. By 2011, Compton had joined the crazy kids of Line Traveling Circus and snagged a segment in Level 1 Productions’ After Dark. When a gnarly crash left him without the ability to ski–or even walk, for that matter–Compton was in search of more. Another Way, by Verb Cabin, catches up with Compton in Greensboro, Vermont, where the former pro has found a new outlook on life.
