Charlotte Kalla | FIS Cross-Country

Fiscrosscountry is back with more Behind the Scenes talks with the world's best Cross-Country skiers. This week, we sat down with a skier who started skiing at 7 years old, introduced to the sport by their grandpa. Although not initially interested in watching TV or World Cup events, they preferred skiing alone. Their professional career began after graduate school when they joined a ski gymnasium. Now, with thirteen years of experience, they feel more calm and share their race experiences with a close confidant. Despite nerves, the joy of competing and constantly improving motivates them. They emphasize the importance of being curious and part of an inspiring, high-performing team. The sport demands higher performance levels now than it did five years ago, always pushing athletes to excel.
