Aleksander Kilde, Mikaela Shiffrin's fiancé, is facing a tough situation. He's trying to make a comeback in skiing, but the weather is not playing nice. Just last week, he finished 24th in a race, which was a big deal for him. He had been away from the sport for almost two years after a bad crash. Now, he's ready to race again, but a snowstorm is messing with the plans.
The Stifel Birds of Prey downhill race was supposed to happen, but the weather changed everything. The finish line was even moved because of the snow. The organizers are being careful, though. They've already had to cancel races before because of bad weather. Safety is their top priority, especially since the athletes have more races to go.
Kilde's performance at the Copper Cup was impressive. He finished the race, which was a big step for him. His rival, Marco Odermatt, won the race, but Kilde is just happy to be back. He's got a lot to prove, especially since Marco is a five-time champion. But Kilde is not alone. Mikaela Shiffrin has been supporting him every step of the way.
Kilde's crash left him scared and unsure if he wanted to continue skiing. But Shiffrin stood by him, helping him get back on his feet. Their support for each other is strong. Kilde said that Shiffrin's support has been incredible. She was there for his comeback and is proud of him.
Now, Kilde is focusing on the Stifel Birds of Prey downhill. It won't be easy, but he's ready. He's got his eyes on the European circuit next. The question is, how will he perform in this race?
