Most athletes hype themselves in order to gain confidence and be in the best mental shape before a major tournament. She unites with famous Norwegian artist Kygo and Joe Jonas’ DNCE, who are back from a four-year hiatus to release their latest song, ‘Dancing Feet’.

During her last World Cup event before the Winter Olympics, she finished fifth in the slalom competition. Swedish skier Sara Hector won the competition with a terrific race. Despite all that, she looked determined to make amends in China. With all her experience, it would be important for her to bounce back now when it is needed the most.
