Hallo there!
Haven´t been here for a while. I want to show you some pics from the last month that I didn´t put up before. It´s from Åre, Nationals and from home.
I´ve been home for 11 days now, feels good to sleep in my own bed for so many nights in a row. I had a cold for 2 weeks.. but now I´m on track again and this afternoon it´s time to do physical test. VO2 Max, running test on belt to see how well I kept the endurance during the season, interesting!
On Sunday it´s time to pack the bag again and fly to Åre, we will train 3 days and then go to Sälen were we have a weekend with a race, sponsorevents and trying to get more people to try all things on snow like, ski cross, mougles, speed ski and snowboard. A lot of work and a lot of kids! Looking forward to stand on skies and train again, get to know the new GS skies a bit more and then I will do 2 FIS SG races in Norway to try the new SG skies.
Enjoy the pictures! Ciao //Jessi
Tight race between Therese Borssen and Anna Sween Larsson but Tessan won
Winner Paulina Grassl
Hassela made such a great job organising the races and a lot of people came to watch
Old cool picture on my mum 
race in Tandådalen 1989 it was also the first time I did a race
Coffee time in the sun during eastern
Cleared half on my household goods this week
Audi test driving on the ice in Åre, so fun not to easy to get the right timing in the curves with full skid (don´t know if this is the right word..)
Getting instructions
A great evening in Åre with friends
Yesterday was the first day with the New GS skies, I raced on them both yesterday and today on FIS races. I have a positive feeling, Off course it’s a bit tougher to turn since they are straighter and 3m longer radius. I got stressed my first run when they didn’t come back as fast as the old in the end of the turn. Today I was only 0,37s out from the fastes one and finished 5th.
With some training this will be good, but you have to put more effort and power when you ski on this ones, I’m having a cold + this new way of skiing + this salty conditions made me exhausted.. So when you know how to ski on them they probably will go faster then the old ones…
Now I’m looking forward for a quite day tomorrow and then punch some SL gates at nationals this weekend in Hassela
last years GS
my old coach Andy was forerunning today, he made a good job!
I defended my GS title from last year at nationals yesterday in I took my 13th Swedish champion title! Always nice to win and felt good to stand at the podium again Frida Hansdotter was second and Sara Hector third.
Huddinge skidklubb, my club witch Im racing for took a bronze in the team results, that’s great many years since we did that before. It was the time when me, Janette Hargin and Christine Hargin did speed events then we took normally gold.
Celebrated with cake and watching Loreen (Sweden’s contribution to Eurovision songcontest) in the evening!
The weather here in Åre is unstable and has been bad lately so they cancelled the DH this week but will run 2 GS races instead.
Hanging with mom this week!
congratulation André!!! What a day!! He did an historical thing today, finishing his great season with a win and had to be top 2 to win the slalom cup and he did, so fun to see, he really earned it!

All the complements to Schladming as a host for the alpine world cup final. Everything has been working out in a good way, you can feel their passion for the sport and I never been on a race with that big crowd, amazing!
So what about me, first run I felt like I was cruising on top an then I wanted to go fast the lower part so I made the arc to short and didn’t go clean into the turns and I wasn’t so slow on top so I fouled my self, better feeling in the second but I was falling 3places so I finished 14th.
Anyway a great GS season, happy with what I accomplished and looking forward to the the next step next year!
I finished 10th int the GS cup
Now in Munich flying home this evening, will take it really easy for a couple of days now!!
lunch with Fysio Anna in the sun
Anja was happy after finishing her last race

Happy faces, thanks for a good speed year! This is part of the crew that inspire me and help me to go faster.

I´m having a tough time loading pictures so I will give you more when I get home. So now the SG season is over, I finished 15th this thursday, not the run of my life but still ok skiing partly. I finished 10th in the SG cup so my season was pretty consistent, and for that I´m happy and pleased, doesn´t mean I want more for the next season. It´s so warm down her, I was sitting in the sun all yesterday reading my book and working on the none existing colour on my skin.. Really looking forward to perform tomorrow again in the GS, I´m startin with bib 8 I want to finish this season in a good way!
Adios amigos
Some swedish paparazzi (newspaper) were waiting the whole day for Anja to show up so I went over to their black BMW and took a photo of them instead
One of my biggest memories on the slope with Anja was when we were at the podium in the same race in Garmish SG 2009
Tomorrow is a different day one of my friends and team partner Anja will end her carrier. She have achieved so much, what we others just dream about and she have done a lot for the alpine skiing in Sweden.
After 10 years in the team it feels said and strange that´s she´s quitting but I totally understand her and it´s time to achieve other stuff in life. Thanks for all great memories, tips, wise words and nice times on the tour! You will be missed
I´m in Schladming for those who doesn´t know and it´s time for the WC finals so last SG tomorrow, Forza Forza will give all to end the season in a good way!
