| Silver medal in Halfpipe |
First of all, the shape was great and the pipe hold for the hole day :) It was a pleasure to ride this great pipe together with my lovely friends Matilda and Johanna, all 3 of us were riding with a big smile on our faces for the HOLE DAY!!!!!
It was my 2:nd day in the pipe for this year and felt during the day that my riding improved for every run I took but a bit sad that I havn't been riding halfpipe more this season cause It didn't felt 100% right.
Johanna Holmstedt showed everybody what a great pipe shredder she is and won the competition :) and I was so happy to take the 2:nd place :) and Matilda Pilfalk took the bronze medal :)

BOARDERCROSS (Snowboardcross):
THIS DAY was EPIC!!!!!!
Matilda and I were so PUMMMPPPPPEDDDD for this ONE! :) The course was so funnnnnn!
First a drop,1 roller, 1 little jump, 2 banks, a snowbox with drop, 4 rollers, a little jump,2 turns and 3 rollers before the finish! The key was to just go straight down and so as fast as you could to keep the speed for the snowbox because after that It went really slowly! and of course to be First out of the gate!!!!
Matilda and I raced against each other for the hole training!!!! It was so FUNNNN and really good for both of us!
Time for the quali: 2 runs best time counts, 4 best girls goes to the finals. I qualified for the finals with the 2:nd best time after Matilda... my boots broke and had to go to the shop to fix It and Peter was so nice to borrow me HF wax for the final :) Matilda heard about the wax-thing and in the last minute went down aswell to fix her board and got lift to the start haha!
The final! We were 4 girls at the start gate! Johanna
Holmstedt, Me, Matilda Pilfalk and Ida Mansner ready to GO! riders ready?! 5 seconds! and the the gate went down, I just remember that I had to be first out to win. Johanna and I were first out and went straight down to the first bank closed to each other, a sec later johanna fell!!!and Matilda comes in the inside and go first, I try to keep up with her, after the snowbox I feel that in slowpart that I'm getting clother to matilda and pump as "#€%, in the last turn on my way to the last rullers I decide to go on matildas leftside to pass her and pushed the board as far as I could over the finish line. We didn't know who won before the prizegving and by 30 cm I won the gold medal!!!!!!!
It was one of the best contest with full of happiness and great riding with super friends!

After a wonderfull week with so much fun riding dancing with my friends I decided to not participate in the Big Air, I fell and hurt myself a little bit during the training to the slopestyle final and was too sore/tired to participate in the last contest!
I want to thank Matilda and Johanna for all the love and dancing and shredding! and my super buddies Ewa Lina Malin Anneli Fille Tobbe & Harry for all love and friendship you give to me.... you're the bests!!!!
And thank you Nikita Clothing & K2 Snowboards for all support you give to me :)
