Norwegian Alpine Ski Racer
«When the joy is gone, the playfulness goes too and then it’s all over.»
Aleksander Aamodt Kilde
Aleksander Aamodt Kilde, born September 21, 1992, in Bærum, Norway, is one of the most defining figures in alpine ski racing. He discovered his passion for the sport early on at the Lommedalens IL sports club, where he took his first steps on skis. What set him apart from the very beginning wasn’t just his talent, but also an irrepressible energy and zest for life that he continues to radiate to this day – both on the slopes and in life beyond sport.
Kilde is considered one of the most versatile speed specialists of his generation, with particular strength in downhill and Super-G. His drive was never just the ambition to win, but above all the joy of skiing itself –
an attitude that has carried him through even the most difficult phases of his career. With his open, combative nature and his willingness to get back up even after severe setbacks, he has earned a loyal fan base not only in Norway, but around the world.
