– It was crazy and idiotic to ski down this hill. It could have ended much worse.
Trondsen has been selected to race the first World Cup sprint races in Düsseldorf October 23 and 24. More serious injuries could have ruined a great opportunity for a good start of the season.
 – It’s a great opportunity to race the first World Cup races. I have trained well this summer and I’m feeling that I’m on track. I’m banged up but should be fine soon, said Trondsen.
What about the sheep?
– I don’t know. It ran into the forest.
