Naxos Review

Hey everyone!

I´m not so frequent here now during summer but will be updating around once a week or so.

Now I will show you some pics from my holiday on Naxos. Felt good just to relax, reading a book and magazines, take a nap in the sun, bathing, eat, tried windsurfing for the first time and spend time with Jonas.

Traditional grecce house and the beach buggy

A lot of fun to drive :-)

Santorini from the oceanside

One day it was raining a lot so there was flooding at some places..

Now I´m back in Stockholm and started with the body work again, feels good to get going!

Vacation!!

Last week I had some physical test, running to so which puls intervals I should train on and see how much oxygen I can push my body to breath in and out. And we did strength and quickness/power tests as well. I’m in much better shape than last spring so the start of the dryland season feels good!

And now I’m on vacation in Greece on Naxos! Feels so nice just to relax, no training – reading a good book, laying in the sun, and tomorrow we gonna try windsurfing. Jonas has tried before but for me it’s the first time :-)

Summer here I come!!!

Now I have had the skies and boots on for the last time this season! I’m pleased with the camp this week and it feels that we are working towards the right direction to become faster skiers. I had a individual talk with the coaches to talk about how I wanted things in the future so now we are on the same track.
Our new team captain Fredrik Steinwall were on place and he fit in straight away in the group and I think he will be good for our team!

winter feeling in may, not bad

Yesterday afternoon it was physical training

Two good days at the slope, Cold during the Night and Day so it stays hard. Today we did GS turns with normal and short gates with a small stick in the beginning of the turn so we now how high we should be in the line. We want to have a higher line and less pressure after the gate!
GS tomorrow as well and some slalom in the terrainpark :-)
The team visite the federations new office here in Åre, it’s in the finish area of the world cup arena and it was really nice fixed and good view over the lake!
Early mornings 5.30 so now it’s nighty night!
