Staff Writer Aleksander Aamodt Kilde dashes to the finish line winning his first world cup ski race and his first race in general on January 30, 2015. “It’s unbelievable for team Norway,” Kilde said. The world cup ski racer has his first career victory on ever. It’s late but he still made it. Bostjan Kline from Slovenia was headed for his first triumph until Kilde, who was wearing bib number 30, bolted past him, winning by 0.22 seconds. Klide’s previous top finish was 13th in December of 2014. "It was dark, fast and bumpy and fun to ski," Kilde said. He was definitely enjoying the course. This course was called the Kandahar course in Garmisch-Partenkirchen Germany. The other Canadians that were participating were Manuel Osbourne-Paradis, Tyler Werry, Jeffrey Frisch, and Broderick Thompson. They were all beaten by Kilde. Many people in the seventh grade ski too. In fact, eight out of nine people in Mr. Kelly’s 7th grade publications class ski.Not only do a lot of teens do but a lot of the world does a snow sport too. According to PlanetSKI, a little under 20 million people over 6 years old ski. That is a lot of people! Skiing is a very important sport to many people, especially Aleksander Aamodt Kilde. That is one of the reasons he won the world cup race. Even though it was late for his career, he came in first and beat many great racers. Comments are closed.
