Henrik Jansson (born March 18, 1972 in Åre ) is a former Swedish snowboarder .

Jansson made his debut in the Snowboard World Cup on January 18, 1996 in Innichen in the halfpipe . He immediately achieved 9th place and thus a placement among the top ten and first World Cup points. A day later he stood on the podium for the first time in his second World Cup and came third. At the Snowboard World Cup in Lienz in 1996 , he just missed the medal ranks in the halfpipe with fourth place. After the World Cup, he achieved several points in the World Cup, so that at the end of the 1995/96 season he was able to achieve sixth place in the Halfpipe World Cup. From January 2007 Jansson started with the start in snowboard cross . At the Snowboard World Championships 1997 in San Candido, he only achieved rear placements in the halfpipe and in snowboard cross. From January 1998 he concentrated on snowboard cross. After the first good results at the beginning of the 1998/99 season , he won the snowboard cross world championship at the 1999 Snowboard World Championship in Berchtesgaden . At the end of the season in Kreischberg he reached the podium in snowboard cross for the first time with second place. After further good season results, at the end of the season he finished 18th in the overall World Cup and fifth in the Snowboard Cross World Cup. After these successes he could no longer build on these achievements. In the World Cup he still managed to score points, but there was no further podium or victory. At the Snowboard World Championships 2001 in Madonna di Campiglio he only reached 50th place. After two more years without leading positions, he drove his last World Cup race in 2003.
