mls Posted March 8, 2015 Report Share Posted March 8, 2015 I just watched Frederik cross the finishing line at 06.54.10. It was not the best of conditions today, it seems. Warm and wet snow and water. Must have been pretty tough.

abbie Posted March 8, 2015 Report Share Posted March 8, 2015 Congratulations to Frederik, he beat his times from last year which is what athletes aim for. Last year I followed on the link provided, this year due to computer problems I couldn't, very disappointing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smt Posted March 9, 2015 Report Share Posted March 9, 2015 I've heard enough Danish on these boards that I can recognize that Frederik is speaking Swedish. He sounds pretty good (to me!). I'll ask my Danish and Swedish speaking friends for their opinions, please. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mls Posted March 9, 2015 Report Share Posted March 9, 2015 http://www.bt.dk/sites/default/files-dk/node-images/391/8/8391832-sweden-crown-prince-vasaloppet-2015.jpg I've heard enough Danish on these boards that I can recognize that Frederik is speaking Swedish. He sounds pretty good (to me!). I'll ask my Danish and Swedish speaking friends for their opinions, please. I speak Swedish. I lived there for a long time when I was young: He is being polite and is attempting to speak Swedish with the occasional Danish word in between. He sounds quite ok (with a Danish accent) but it's hard to tell how well he actually speaks it, as it's such a short interview. He sounds better than when he was interviewed after his first 'Vasaloppet' a few years ago. Back then I thought he should have just spoken Danish. I think most Swedes understand it pretty well. I understand him very well and I'm not even Swedish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
