Monsén starts collaboration with Austria

Felix Monsén was snubbed before the Olympics. Now the alpine skier has started a collaboration with Austria. "Two years ago I was without a coach, a service technician and a national team. Now I have a collaboration with the leading skiing nation in the world," the 31-year-old tells DN.

Felix Monsén came into focus before the Olympics when he was snubbed, despite a couple of great results and personal bests during the winter.

Ahead of the upcoming World Cup in Switzerland, Monsén has begun collaborating with Austria. The 31-year-old tells Dagens Nyheter that it "gives a completely different sense of peace in the preparations."

"We use their help to get onto different training slopes, and it becomes easier to focus on skiing, instead of having to focus so much on where we are going to train, how it is going to be done and who we are going to train with," he says.
