Over the weekend the nineteen year you & egrave; ranked in second place in the Norwegian national ski jumping championships and, just in the post-race interviews, revealed to NRK "microphones that I spot a target dream. To compete in Lillehammer is in the FIS Nordic Combined World Cup in that skip the next week. I think in my better days, I am able to fight on par with most & ugrave specialists; strong. "
The reference & egrave; tains of the season. The World Cup Nordic combined will go & agrave; on stage in Lillehammer December 2 to 4, and the maximum special circuit to jump & agrave; stage at the same venue seven days later, in a hole weekend for Combiners.
The 'stand as a candidate & agrave; is not serious; a problem, since & eacute; Riiber the 'has gained in Kuopio during the' summer (which is brilliantly, climbing onto the podium in FIS Cup and then even win in the Continental Cup). It remains to be seen whether the terrible boy potr & agrave; be included in the team.
Theoretically Norway, being the host country, could decide to make use of the national contingent. In which case the available places would be 13 and not 7. The task would be easier.
The fact, for memorize options ;, not & egrave; granted. This possibility & agrave; & Egrave; Limited 2 races throughout the season and the Fed could decide to use the 'option during two tests of Raw Air, in March.
The 'head coach of the team jumping Alexander St & ouml; ckl to memorize options issued a statement that would seem to dampen the bud the enthusiasm of the Oslo nineteen: "If he wants to compete in the World Cup, must first ask if & egrave; can do it. So it must first prove to be worth the maximum circuit in the Continental Cup, and then eventually potr & agrave; show up at the World Cup. "
So the head coach has made it clear that they have no intention to grant favorable treatment and that Riiber will have & agrave; earn the right to compete on the field.
The problem & egrave; that there are no stages in the first Continental Cup in Lillehammer, even the first round of the cadet & egrave circuit; set at Vikersund, in conjunction with the 'appointment that targeted the teenager.
In the coming weeks we will understand how evolver & agrave; this affair. Certainly the 'Ambition is not lacking to the young Scandinavian. Daniel-Andre Tande has indeed quickly as he "told me he first wants to win the World Cup Nordic Combined, and then also win the Crystal Ball in ski jumping!"
