Indeed, for the opening of Soelden, Norway will have to give up for the first World Cup giant at the two ends of the technical disciplines.
Confirmed the absences of Ragnhild Mowinckel and Nina Haver-Loeseth, in recovery from the respective injuries suffered last season; the multipurpose should make it to return to Killington (November 30), while the slalomist points straight to Levi (November 23).
There are therefore six women selected for Saturday's race, with Kristin Lysdahl flanked by Thea Stjernesund, Mina Furst Holtmann, Maria Tviberg, Marte Monsen and Kristina Riis-Johannessen.
Nine instead of the men led by the new manager Steve Skavik: in the end Kjetil Jansrud gave up the first on the Rettenbach, with Henrik Kristoffersen then at the helm of a team that also proposes Aleksander Aamodt Kilde, Leif Kristian Nestvold Haugen, Rasmus Windingstad, young in launch ramp like the 2000 class Lucas Braathen, as well as Timon Hauhan, Atle Lie McGrath, Marcus Monsen and Fabian Wilkens Solheim.
SWEDEN FOR SOELDEN
In the previous hours the convocations of Sweden had also arrived for the two giants that will open the World Cup.
Four girls at the start, with Sara Hector, Magdalena Fjaellstroem, Jonna Luthman and the great hope Estelle Alphand, returning after the injury that made her practically lose the whole last season.
Only three men at the gate: as is known, Andrè Myhrer permanently renounces the giant to dedicate himself to his slalom, with Matts Olsson the only real hope for the podium, flanked by the slalomist Kristoffer Jakobsen and Mattias Roenngren.
