The 27-year-old has two WC gold medals, the skiathlon and the three-mile, to defend from when she became the WC queen in Planica 2023.
– It is the WC that is the big, individual goal, Andersson admits to SVT.
– I have WC gold to defend, so I don’t have to worry about trying to repeat something similar.
Ebba’s change
In order to be as good as possible, Andersson has made a significant change in his training. By putting extra strength training on a specific part of the body.
– I have tried to get a little stronger in my upper body, because I see that I still have a little to gain there. I have, after all, my greatest expertise in downhill skiing, regardless of whether it’s crazy or classic, says Ebba to the TV channel.
– So I have tried to equip myself well to cope with more easily ridden terrain.
