Norway for North American races, from Jansrud-Kilde to Kristoffersen; Kajsa Vickhoff Lie single sprinter present

Eighteen Scandinavian bishops for the double weekend between the United States and Canada. In Killington, the girls aim to do very well ...

A complete team, ready to gamble on any terrain except ... of female speed. The new injury to Ragnhild Mowinckel, who has already finished the season prematurely, has clearly removed Norway's only card between downhill and super-g in the pink sector, so here for the three Lake Louise races he will be on track only the '98 class Kajsa Vickhoff Lie. Far more interesting is the team of Scandinavian giant and slalom, scheduled for next Saturday and Sunday in Killington; in Vermont they will play the trial between the seven doors wide athletes, with Mina Fuerst Holtmann and Maria Therese Tviberg who did so well at the debut in Soelden (fourth and sixth), Nina Haver-Loeseth (fifth at her first season, in the slalom by Levi), Kristin Lysdahl, Thea Stjernesund, Kristina Riis-Johannessen and Kaja Norbvye, on the third token in the World Cup. For the slalom of the following day, the same protagonists with the only insertion of the specialist Maren Skjoeld instead of Tviberg. Also send the convocations for the five men's races of the next two weekends, between Lake Louise where the sprinters are ready for the first test of the descent on Saturday, and the Beaver Creek triptych which, in addition to the two fast races, includes a giant closing, Sunday 8 December. In Canada quintet with captains Kjetil Jansrud and Aleksander Aamodt Kilde, in addition to Rasmus Windingstad, Stian Saugestad (left out of national frames last spring, but equally summoned) and Adrian Smiseth Sejersted. In Colorado, the same five will play super-g and descent, while for the giant there will be eight Norwegians at the starting gate: Henrik Kristoffersen the first striker (the winner of Levi left today for the States), then there will be Leif Kristian Nestvold Haugen, Rasmus Windingstad, the splendid Lucas Braathen able to finish 6th in Soelden, the sprinters Jansrud and Kilde (the latter had already competed on the Rettenbach), Fabian Wilkens Solheim and Atle Lie McGrath.
