– If you think back to before the season, I think would have been very happy with the season that has been. It really started to really better than you had … I had hopes of course, but I had not expected it to go so well right from the start and that it would be a World Cup all the time. In addition, stable, a little higher up than it used to be. With personal best in Davos. And then now that it has been a little World Cup and so it feels like I got very positive that I may not completely believe in before the season, he says in an interview with the Sports Bible.
Trul’s feelings after skiing World Cup
Now that it has been a couple of weeks, he has been able to land a little mentally. He had not expected a World Cup medal himself.
– Yes, it was a lot of impression, so it took a day before it had dropped as well. And it felt like it first went extremely slowly because you just went and waited to charge for every race in case it was to get rid of. So it was not off and then you had to reload. It was very special before as well. And then when there were competitions there will be extremely much impression and even after the baton and everything around as well, he says and continues:
