The alpine women's national team has a new leadership staff, which means new opportunities for development.

Anna Swenn-Larsson has had a few difficult years with broken legs and corona virus after the World Cup silver in Åre 2019, but now sees the future brightly as she aims for her first win in the World Cup.

- We have a completely new team this year and have been given new things to work with.

We have focused a lot on trying to calm my upper body down.

Not reaching for the sticks but waiting for them, especially on steeper terrain.

I think I feel more secure, but we'll see how far it goes, says Anna Swenn-Larsson.

How much can a changed arm movement generate in time?

- It's hard to say, but can hopefully generate more stable riding on the slope.

If you are high up with your arms, it easily becomes a little wobbly.

It's hard to change a riding style you've had all your life, but it's something we're working on.

I've had some very good training and have faith that this will be good, says the 31-year-old from Rättvik.

Problems with the technology – the expert explains

SVT's expert Pernilla Wiberg welcomes Swenn Larsson's investment in calmer arm movements.

- When entering steeper terrain, it is important to step on and get some forward weight, and then this "working" with the arms becomes completely the wrong way.

You end up in a back weight and then it's easy to drive out, so it's obviously good that Anna has finally started practicing this.

To bring the arms down to make one's riding more stable throughout the course, says Pernilla Wiberg.
