Last winter, Nils van der Poel surprisingly became world champion in skating at the distances of 5,000 and 10,000 meters. He has previously become junior world champion twice and taken lots of Swedish Championship gold.
Nils van der Poel has always gone his own way. In 2018, he took a break from the competition and did the dirty work in Arvidsjaur. He has run an ultramarathon and cycled from Riksgränsen to Smygehuk. In the summer of 2021, he will try to catch up with 100 parachute jumps.
He is a big medal jumper for the Winter Olympics in Beijing 2022.
Nils van der Poel’s Summer is about lack of motivation, success, sadness and euphoria.
– It will be an autobiographical balance between humble and cocky.
