May 01, 2022·Alpine SkiingLast season was a successful one for the Norwegian team, one of their best seasons ever.
Aleksander Aamodt Kilde won the super-G and downhill titles, while Henrik Kristoffersen secured the slalom one for the third time in his career. Ragnhild Mowinckel has ended the season with her first World Cup victory in the Courchevel-Meribel finals. Her very strong season gave her fourth place in the overall World Cup ranking.
- With this selection, we have wanted to facilitate in order to be able to take care of an offer through the team structure so that we can have strong teams that can deliver results at the highest level for both genders and in all disciplines. It is a clear goal to deliver in the international arena. This year there is an increase in the number of athletes, especially on the C-teams, and we have very many good younger athletes in Norwegian alpine sports, so it is important that we can follow up more after several years with a reduction in the number of athletes, especially during the covid period. - says sports manager Claus Johan System.
