Biography

[edit]

During his skiing career he became known for his dedication and attention to detail. For instance, he used a lighter alloy on the tips of his ski poles, saving four grams (0.14 oz). He won two golds (15 km andrelay), one bronze (30 km) and one silver (50 km) at the1984 Winter Olympics inSarajevo. At the1988 Winter Olympics inCalgary, he won two golds for 50 km and relay. He also won the World championship gold six times and won the World cup five times.

As a competitor inrallycross he got one gold medal in the Swedish Championship and a bronze medal in theFIA European Championship for Rallycross Drivers (1995: Division 1 – Group N category; with aToyota Celica GT-Four). One of the reasons for getting into another sport was that some people called him a natural skier while he himself maintained that it's just a matter of will and dedication, according to his famous tagline "nothing is impossible". He applied the same methods to his driving as his skiing and even built his own reaction-tester to practice for the rallycross eminently important starts. When his compatriot and teamboss, the late Christer Bohlin, was not able to fulfill his promise to upgrade his Toyota team for 1996 into the top ERC category (Division 2 by then), Svan quit and gave up rallycross.

After retiring from his athletic career he has worked as the host for some game shows such as the Swedish versions ofAmerican Gladiators andFort Boyard along the swedish national loteryBingolotto. He has played a seductive lady in the short movieEn handelsresandes nöd, directed by rock group Svenne Rubins and starringClaes Månsson,Björn Skifs and Gert Klötzke. He has also appeared in numerous commercials including a famous commercial where he impersonated fellow skierThomas Wassberg.

Svan resigned from his position as Chief of Cross-Country for Sweden on the week of 4 May 2009 after he was involved in its reorganization.

He participated inLet's Dance 2018 broadcast onTV4 where he finished third together withJeanette Carlsson.

He retired to his 1,000-hectare (2,500-acre) forest farm, where he worked with his son,Ferry Svan, and now supports his children's careers.[3]
