In this special episode, brought to you by Ski Racing Media, Alan and I chatted with two of the brightest, young ski racers anywhere in Madeleine Sylvester-Davik and Rasmus Bakkevig.

We chatted about the impressive seasons that the Norwegian couple have enjoyed, both scoring their first World Cup points, in fact, both in the top twenty.

Rasmus discussed his incredible breakthrough in 2025, having been racing FIS races, mostly, until the new year before he hit the Europa Cup podium and won as well as a World Junior Championship silver and his first WC points on a magical day in Hafjell.

Madeleine and Rasmus both spoke about the extreme strength in depth of the Norwegian tech team, particularly with the next generation.

We also asked about their goals for the upcoming season where they both are hoping for more World Cup opportunities, potentially aiming for a place in the home World Cup finals.

We also finished with a couples quick-fire special where I asked them questions about who is better at certain things, for example, best slalom racer and best cook.
