Aleksander Aamodt Kilde (born 21 September 1992) is a Norwegian World Cup alpine ski racer. He competes in four events with a main focus on super-G.[2] Kilde hails from Bærum and represents the sports club Lommedalens IL.[3]

Career

Kilde became junior world champion in giant slalom in 2013 at Mont-Sainte-Anne, Quebec, Canada,[4] and won the European Cup overall title that season.[2] He also finished second in the Super G at the Norwegian national championships, setting a time 0.11 of a second behind winner Aksel Lund Svindal.[5] He made his World Cup debut in October 2012 and has competed on the circuit since the 2014 season.[6]

Kilde represented Norway in the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi, Russia,[7] and was 13th in the super-G at Rosa Khutor, but did not finish in the downhill nor the combination, where he placed fourth in the downhill portion of the combined.

Kilde gained his first World Cup podium in a super-G at Val Gardena in December 2015. It was a third place in a Norwegian sweep, following teammates Aksel Lund Svindal and Kjetil Jansrud.
