Notable:
For the last three years, a solid WX performance has eluded Eric Andersson--he finished 17th at both WX '00 and '01, and then dropped back to 23rd in 2002. Things picked up soon after WX '02 for Andersson, which seems to be the norm for the large Swede. After WX '01, he went on to finish 2nd overall in the European based World Skiercross Tour. Post WX '02, Andersson placed in the top 10 in each event he entered, making the podium at three major events.

Quote:
"We work like a team," says Eric about his wife and fellow WX competitor, Magdalena Jonsson. "We try to psyche each other up and help as much as we can."
