Who is Walter Wallberg?
Wallberg practices the somewhat unusual winter sport of humpback skiing. The media coverage consists mostly of cross-country skiing, biathlon and some alpine skiing, but humpback skiing doesn’t steal very many headlines. That was the case until the 2022 Olympics, when Sweden got its own hump track profile in Walter Wallberg.

Wallberg is one of the world’s best in his sport. But what has he really won?
Recently 2022 was mentioned, but what exactly was he doing then? Then he took Sweden by storm when he won the first medal in the Olympics in Beijing 2022. It also became the noblest prize that was allowed to hang around Wallberg’s neck. That winter he went from a doldis to a profile.
In an interview with The Express he commented on his gold medal.
– I was just going to try to do my rides, I heard that Ikuma and Mick did good rides and the highest scores for the day so I just tried to do my thing, jump high and ride fast so it’s great fun. It means an awful lot.
He continued to tell.
– With the fact that I had four podium finishes in the last five competitions, I felt that it had been released properly. But it was when I got there, after the first qualifier, that I felt the medal rush come on.
Since then he has also won a silver medal at the WC in Bakuriani, Georgia.
The 24-year-old is also noted for several podium places in the World Cup in his so far young career.
