Hafjell hosts Telemark Finals, World Juniors
Simultaneously to the Audi FIS Ski World Cup men's events in Kvitfjell (NOR), the nearby resort of Hafjell will be hosting the FIS Telemark World Cup season finals and the World Junior Championships in Telemark Skiing. Some 150 participants from around 15 nations are expected to compete on the Hafjell Olympia course.
Hafjell last organized Telemark World Cup competitions in 1995 when it also hosted the Telemark World Championships just a year after serving as a venue during the Lillehammer Olympic Winter Games. This year's event serves as an important dress rehearsal for the World Championships in Rjukan from 15th-19th March, and the main season highlight for the Telemark juniors.
In the ladies' rankings, Switzerland has a double lead with Amelie Reymond leading over teammate Sandrine Mayer by 278 points with three competitions remaining at the Finals in Hafjell. Katinka Knudsen of Norway ranks third. Reymond also leads all the event rankings.
In the men's overall rankings Philippe Lau of France leads by 227 points ahead of Eirik Rykhus (NOR). Matthias Wagenius (SWE) trails him by just 23 points. Wagenius also leads the Classic event season rankings, whilst Philippe Lau is in the lead of the sprint rankings and his brother Sven Lau goes to the finals leading the giant slalom rankings.
