“Saltar three times: ”Snow is like Bregott””
“SEEFELD. In twelve degrees and blazing sun to Calle Halfvarsson chase world CHAMPIONSHIP medal.”
“in Order to avoid the chaotic scenes in the morning, the organizers have tried to put salt on the snow three times.”
“– the Snow is approximately the same as that had been Bregott standing two hours on a Sunday morning, ” says Johan Olsson.”
“Some races going in the sun and heat, the other in shadow and minus. It is the riders accustomed to.”
“But what makes the men’s 15 km classic in the morning so rare is that the world CUP-the track contains two parts. The course can be divided into four rounds where the first and third yesterday in the blazing sun and temperatures well over ten degrees. The second and the fourth leg is in shadow and hard trails.”
“Warm skiing in the shade.”
“the Conditions will force the riders to tough so-called materials. Not only in the question of herding, but what hardness you choose on skis.”
” yesterday it was really wet conditions, really sloppy. But on the shadow side are the hard trails. So you must be prepared to either have good skis where it is really wet and make it heavier on the shadow side or vice versa, ” says Jens Burman.”
“to prepare the athletes of the special conditions was the previous Johan Olsson, now herrtränare in the national team, out in two and a half hours on Monday. He studied in detail how the sun warmed some of the parties through the grenverken and melted the snow there.”
“– You come in with warm skiing in the shade. It will be a lot of strategy, in virtually an action plan you need to write up before the race. The hard part will be to remember it, ” he says.”
“We need to have stenkoll”
“How big is the difference in the snow between the various parties?”
” yesterday was the snow on the cold side quite shiny, icy and dry. Quite hard. But on the warm side it is approximately the same as that had been Bregott standing two hours on a Sunday morning.”
“to avoid the mess and remedy the smörsnön, the organizers have today tried to put salt on a hill that is not on the actual competition site, but just next door. Three times has the salt been thrown out – at eleven o’clock, twelve-and-a – and the result should be evaluated in the afternoon. Sometimes leads to such a preparation that snow pacckas and becomes harder – the other times makes it just the situation worse.”
“On the lagledarmötet in the evening made the final decision about the snow on the sunny side should be salted in the morning.”
“– we need to be when, ” says Johan Olsson.”
