She has had an absolutely fantastic ski season.
Now Linn Svahn opens up about the big super year.
And praised to the skies by all Swedish ski lovers.
After a few leaden years on the ski tracks, this year’s season was the big revenge for Lynn Svahn. She has had to fight through two seasons of injuries, operations and rehabilitation, where in the toughest situations she lost faith in herself, but during the winter she shook off all the troubles.
Svahn’s success
The 24-year-old impressed immensely throughout the season, but it was during the Tour de Ski that something awakened within her. Then she took her first World Cup victory in over 1,000 days and it was the beginning of an incredible dominance of the World Cup.

Svahn lined up victories and especially in sprints she looked almost completely unstoppable. She delivered the best season of her career and returned to the top of the world in grand style.
Linn’s own words
Linn took home the sprint cup and came second in the overall world cup after an incredible display after the turn of the year. The great success resulted in a real millionaire rain for the Swede, who earned a whopping 2.6 million kroner in pure prize money last season.

Thanks to my heroes Ola Ravald (technique coach) & Marcus Bystedt (physiotherapist), without you it wouldn’t have been the same!”, she writes on Instagram and shares her best photos from the ski season, see them below.
