Concussion keeps Kilde from racing at Soelden

Top Norwegian skier Aleksander Aamodt Kilde announced on Sunday that he will skip the World Cup opener in Soelden, Austria. The Attacking Viking suffered a light concussion in training and needs time recover. He expects to be back in time for Lake Louise.

After the crash I had last week I’ve been suffering from a light concussion, that means I won’t be able to start in Sölden. My head needs time to rest. See you in Lake Louise!
