Mika and Jimmy are joined by Finnish sprint star Jasmi Joensuu, and let’s just say her story is not your average “Scandinavian skier crushing the World Cup” narrative.
We get into everything with Jasmi: why she took the unusual route and raced college in the U.S. instead of sticking to the typical Nordic system, how she balanced studying finance and marketing with serious training (plus a little college partying), and the wild journey back to Europe that led to snagging a World Cup podium and the sprint globe last season.
The crew gets real about why so few Scandinavians go to the U.S. and actually get better, the financial ups and downs of Finnish skiing, and how Jasmi Joensuu’s consistent results paid off big-time—even if it meant having to handle the haters who think only podiums should count. There’s plenty of banter, some hot takes, and lots of insights for ski geeks, but honestly, it’s just a great listen if you love hearing what it really takes to do things differently and succeed.
