Charlotte Calla has started her new job as an ambassador for Skistar.
As a product developer, she will develop a cross-country ski apparel and a training kit for women.
– Shit, how dreamy it is to continue working in the mountains, says the now retired ski star.
Just over two months after the end of a long and successful career Charlotte Calla He finished with his first job.
The 34-year-old has received a number of job offers to listen to and choose from.
– It really does sound like a dream. When I rode my last races in Petio, I was in Stockholm for some meetings. Then we speculated on a blank piece of paper about what I’d like to do with time. I really love continuing to live outdoors and inspiring others with the joy of movement, says Charlotte Calla.
“There was a longing”
Like former ski star Nils van der Poel, she will work for Skistar, which operates mountain resorts.
– We have laid off Skistar as a company that can provide this, because I have been curious about them throughout my career. When I invested in skateboarding and saw what others were doing, there was a longing for exactly that. Shit, what a dream that you continue to work in the mountains. Then when they heard from me a few days later, I didn’t think it was true, when we sat down and talked about those dreams. It went fast but it seems right. I didn’t plan much for my career after my own, so to speak. Because I didn’t know how long I’d be skiing, Charlotte Calla says.
Unable to swallow
Skistar is doing a lot and investing a lot in increasing mountain tourism all year round.
In the off-season during her racing career, Charlotte Calla spent a lot of time with her sister in OR, taking on sports and sports other than cross-country skiing.
-During April, which was my month off, I tried to spend a lot of time in the mountains and increase time there, but I couldn’t look at opportunities during the summer and fall It’s the training puzzle that guided me, says Charlotte Cala.
Works with other profiles
The focus will initially be a lot on working with your own designer with your own collection.
– I have a lot of experience, thoughts and ideas there. It feels great to be able to put your name on something of your own that can be accessed so widely. I hope to get more people to try skiing or other mountain activities, says Charlotte Cala.
In addition to Nils van der Poel, she will be teammates with Sana Calor, Jenny Calor Olson, Maria Petilla Holmener, and Hans Olsson, among others.
