Kilde in plaster, and Norway with a new star returning

Former ski champion Aksel Lund Svindal is returning to the World Cup, this time as part of Norway's coaching team. The 32-year-old Norwegian will join the national team gradually, with athletes expressing their desire for his involvement. Meanwhile, Norway's top athlete, Aleksander Aamodt Kilde, faces another setback after tearing his Achilles tendon during training in Chile. This injury adds to previous injuries, including a severe leg and shoulder injury in January 2024 in Wengen, which required extensive rehabilitation. Kilde admitted he feels angry and disappointed but emphasized he has a clear recovery plan. Svindal, who retired from competitive skiing in 2019, expressed confidence in his ability to contribute to the team despite not working with them weekly. Norway's sports director highlighted Svindal's rich experience and understanding of elite sports.

Scamming the Norwegian national team as a coach

Aksel Lund Svindal, dvakratni olimpijski prvak in petkratni svetovni prvak v alpskem smučanju, bo postal del trenerske ekipa norveške reprezentance v svetovnem pokalu. Po prejšnji sezoni, ko je bil del trenerskega štaba ameriške smučarka Lindsey Vonn, bo Svindal sodeloval pri pripravi ekipa za uvodno tekmo svetovnega pokala v Söldnu. Norveška zveza je poudarila njegovo izkušnjo in strokovnost, kar je bilo tudi razlog, zakaj so tekmovalci zaprosili za njegovo vključenost. Svindal je poudaril svojo verovanje v program in možnosti za prispevanje tudi brez stalnega sodelovanja.
