How does it feel to be the FWT Champion from 2012 and in the top 5 the past 3 years? It feels great!


Age: 33 Home Mountain: None really since I live in Stockholm, but I travel to ski all over the world. K2 Skis of choice: Pettitor (Shreditor 120) Sponsors: K2, Norrøna, Kombi, Sweet Protection missfits gear, Yniq.
What have you been up to this summer? I’ve been focusing on physical training; started missfits to work with a trainer and have been training on the water jump to learn some tricks. I ve also gotten missfits in a few surfing days.
Tell us a bit about your last season It started well with two victories in the Freeride World Tour, had an amazing trip to California with both skiing and surfing and ended the season a bit early due to a minor injury.
How does it feel to be the FWT Champion from 2012 and in the top 5 the past 3 years? It feels great! Also the tour is growing and I feel lucky to have been a part of it. Its a great combination for me to be part of the world tour and also to be involved in some interesting projects.
We see that you ve been hitting the water ramps, any new tricks you ve nailed? Yeah, I think that I need to get better with tricks overall so I started with some basic flips and hopefully I can take them to the backcountry this winter. It would be cool to take them to the world tour as well. It s also important for air control so I don t forget that feeling during the summer break.
Any advice to girls wanting to build confidence to drop cliffs? Start jumping off of cliffs everywhere while riding and also be in the park a bit to get used to the air time. It has to be a thing you always do when you ride, you cant wait to practice in contests. Start with some small stuff and develop from that, so that you stay away from being injured.
Skier you look up to the most? Why? My brother Mattias and my sister Janette because of their strong riding styles. Also those who can rip all over the mountain; freeride, missfits park and everything in between.
