15:36. Absent from last weekend’s opening races in Beitostølen (Norway), Norwegians Jarl Magnus Riiber and Jens Luraas Oftebro will be lining up at the start of the Nordic combined world cup in Ruka (Finland) in a few days’ time. The Norwegian Ski Association made the announcement on Monday.
In fact, they lead a Norwegian team that will look great with Joergen Graabak, Andreas Skoglund, Espen Andersen, Espen Bjoernstad, Sebastian Oestvold and Jens Dahlseide Kvamme in their wake. The latter two will be starting a World Cup winter for the very first time.
