Norwegian speed stars Aleksander Aamodt Kilde and Fredrik Møller return to Kitzbühel training as they build fitness, confidence, and timing ahead of the Olympic Games.
Aleksander Aamodt Kilde is hopeful he’ll return to racing in Thursday’s Copper Mountain super-G, but he won’t make the final decision until tomorrow.
Fredrik Møller’s remarkable victory on the icy, demanding Stelvio course in Bormio has catapulted him into contention for the super-G World Cup title, trailing leader Marco Odermatt by just five points. In an exclusive interview, the 24-year-old Norwegian reflected on his calm approach, tactical strengths, and the confidence gained from earlier top finishes. As he prepares for the Lauberhorn and Hahnenkamm classics, Møller’s focus remains steady, embodying a blend of skill and mental resilience that signals a bright future on the World Cup circuit.
The Norwegian men’s speed team has captured over a third of the World Cup speed discipline globes in the past 20 years, including Aleksander Aamodt Kilde’s three globes during the past two seasons. However, no Norwegian men started this year in the World Cup Finals’ super-G and downhill events.
