fannis retiring hit me like a ton of bricks, even tho it was expected and talked about for so many seasons
i will always remember him as the first ski jumper who really caught my eye in terms of his flying style, and i was absolutely amazed by his world record and i remember it like it was yesterday; when you really thought it can't go more than 250 meters, he proved everyone wrong just the next day
he was also one of the og norwegian pancakes in those ridiculous green jackets who kept winning every single team competition and was a vital part of the norwegian team, from the stupid vlogs in hotel halls to the top of the podiums
with every retirement of someone who has been in the world cup for so many years it feels like a part of it is changing, but the achievements and memories of those times will always stay
