During the weekend, the ski season started in Bruksvallarna.
Several Swedes showed good form – including William Poromaa.
But the 21-year-old from Malmberget also came into focus because of something completely different.
This weekend, the World Cup starts in Ruka, Finland, but already during the past weekend, the Swedish premiere took place where most of the Swedish stars were present. Several of the weekend’s races were highly interesting – but there were also other things that stole the attention.
Strange pictures
Included in Bruksvallarna were, among other things William Poromaaas so many others began by sprinting on Friday – and it was during that race that something very strange unfolded.

When Poromaa was zoomed in by the cameras in SVT’s broadcast, the 21-year-old suddenly showed his middle finger, something that made viewers wonder what it was really about.

“A bit of fun”
Now, however, Poromaa comes up with an explanation. The background is that Poromaa is sponsored by a glove manufacturer that chose to put its logo on the middle finger.
– I just stood there before the start and thought “this could be a bit of fun”. And so I did it, he says to the newspaper Expressen.
– And I think that’s a fun place to put your logo. So that’s why I did this. And they seem to think it was fun too!

He also takes the opportunity to send a poke to the competitors in Norway.
– Or…was it perhaps aimed at the Norwegians?, concludes Poromaa.
