The surgery of a disc in the back that he had to undergo last spring has not helped, it still hurts when he is exercising.

- I found out the other day that I will be operating on 17 September. Then a disk prosthesis will be inserted in the back. The bad disk is removed and then they insert a prosthesis that is attached with titanium I think. Then it grows together with the other dishes, says Viktor Thorn to P4 Jämtland.

"Better and better"

Fortunately, Ulricehamn Seeker can resume training pretty soon after an initial rest and recovery. And hopefully without pain.

- It won't be like now that I get worse from training, but it will get better and better.

Thorn's hope is that he will be able to start competing already in the coming season.
