For years, Swedish speed skier Felix Mons\u00e9n has often been referred to as the \u201clonely Swede\u201d of World Cup racing.<\/strong> While the world\u2019s top downhill and super-G athletes typically train within large national teams packed with coaches, technicians, and training partners, Mons\u00e9n has frequently found himself competing with far fewer resources than the sport\u2019s traditional powerhouses. This is also because the Swedish alpine team has traditionally been heavily weighted toward technical disciplines, such as slalom and giant slalom, with fewer full-time speed skiers like Mons\u00e9n operating within the system. Yet despite those obstacles, he has consistently remained part of the World Cup speed circuit and represented Sweden at the highest levels of the sport.<\/p>\n
