Braathen breaks his silence: a moving career end!
In an unexpected turn, the Norwegian ski star Lucas Pinheiro Braathen, known for his "bird of paradise", announced the end of his career. This happened just two days before the start of the new World Cup season and surprised many fans and experts in sports. In an emotional press conference on March 3, 2025, the 23-year-old explained that he was "finished" and made the decision on his resignation four weeks ago, as krone.at reported.
while he explained the reasons for his resignation, Braathen spoke of the enormous pressure laws of the Norwegian ski association, which imposed strict guidelines for him and other athletes. Despite his successes for Brazil after his dusting with the Norwegian association, the pressure on him has increased steadily in the past few months. "I'm stuck here," said Braathen resigned and added that he could not put his luck and dreams back. The conflict for his advertising campaign with the fashion brand "J. Lindberg" also contributed to the unrest. "I am disappointed that I let myself down to the level on which the association is acting," continued Braathen.
Braathen fought with health problems
In addition to the professional conflicts, Braathen has also had to overcome health setbacks in the past few weeks. He suffered from stubborn mycoplasm infection, which burdened his lungs and significantly impaired his energy level. After a humiliating experience at the World Championships in Saalbach, where he was in health, he found back to old strength: at a giant slalom in Slovenia, he achieved second place and explained, "I am back where I belong", like Ski1.at reported. But happiness was short -lived, because already in the slalom he failed in the first round.It remains uncertain what the future has for the talented athlete, but according to the challenges of the past few months, Braathen concludes with a positive note: "Finally, I feel free," so the 23-year-old, who is ready to go his own way and track his own dreams.
