    PRE-COMPETITION FACTS RUKA TRIPLE, FIN Stage 1: Ladies‘ / Men‘s Sprint Classic COMPETITION COURSE Ladies: 1,4 km Men: 1,4 km Bonus seconds: WEATHER FORECAST LADIES For the 10th season in a row, Ruka will host the first sprint event of the World Cup calendar (2008-2017). Marit Bjørgen (NOR) has won four of the previous 11 sprint World Cup events in Ruka (all classic style), most of all athletes and one more than Petra Majdic (SLO). Bjørgen's four sprint World Cup wins in Ruka, are joint-most for her at a single venue along with Lahti and Düsseldorf. Bjørgen is on five podium finishes in sprint World Cup events in Ruka, joint- most along with Majdic. Bjørgen has only recorded more sprint World Cup podium finishes in Davos (6) than in Ruka (5). Stina Nilsson (SWE) has won the last three sprint World Cup events (free and classic) and could become the first non-Norwegian to claim four victories in a row since Majdic in 2009. Nilsson has won each of the last five sprint World Cup events she participated in. The last time she failed to claim victory was in the sprint free in Davos on 11 December 2016 (31st). On 26 November 2016, Nilsson won the sprint classic in Ruka, her first ever World Cup victory in classic style. Only Maiken Caspersen Falla (NOR, 10) has claimed more sprint World Cup wins since the start of 2014/15 than Nilsson (9). Last season's sprint World Cup winner Falla has reached the podium in 14 of her last 15 sprint World Cup appearances with a 31st-place finish in Drammen (classic style) on 8 March as the only exception.

  • Northug Chanslös Mot Jönsson I Oslo
    2011-02-23 10:33 CET NORTHUG CHANSLÖS MOT JÖNSSON I OSLO Det har gått bra för Emil Jönsson denna säsong vilket gör honom till en av favoriterna då längd-VM avgörs i Oslo. Jönsson som har vunnit tre fristilslopp i sprint i vinter spelas till 4,50 gånger pengarna. Dock hävdar den alltid så kaxige Northug att upploppet i Holmenkollen passar norrmännen bättre, men efter utklassningen i Drammen kan han väl inte säga annat. Markus Hellner har det mycket spelbara oddset 26,00 och på damsidan hittar vi det största svenska guldhoppet, Charlotte Kalla. Svenskan spelas till fyra gånger pengarna att hon tar ett individuellt guld. 1,72 är oddset om hon lyckas ta ett guld inklusive stafetter. Dock lutar det åt att Marit Bjørgen blir mästerskapens drottning och hon har chansen att ta hem storslam. ”Emil Jönsson har sett bra ut en tid, jag är dock orolig för att han har prickat formen för tidigt och inte kan leverera under VM. Hur som helst så har kampen om gulden börjat!” säger Andreas Gillberg, Ladbrokes Nordenchef. Aktuella odds – Längdåkning VM Herrar Emil Jönsson 4,50 Alexey Petukhov 4,50 Ola Vigen Hattestad 4,50 Petter Northug 7,00 Anders Gloersen 7,00 Eirik Brandsdal 11,00 Nikolay Morilov 21,00 Fedorico Pellegrini 26,00 Markus Hellner 26,00 Jesper Modin 31,00 Damer Marit Bjørgen 3,00 Kickan Randall 3,50 Petra Majdic 6,00 Arianna Follis 7,00 Maiken Caspersen Falla 9,00 Hanna Falk 14,00 Charlotte Kalla 21,00 Vesna Fabjan 21,00 Celine Brun-Lie 31,00 Ida Ingemarsdotter 31,00 För mer information: http://sports.ladbrokes.com/sv- se/Vintersport/L%C3%A4ngdskid%C3%A5kningVintersport/L%C3%A4ngdskid %C3%A5kning-t210003608 Se även vår blogg på http://blogg.ladbrokes.se för mer nyheter och information från Ladbrokes.

  • Master Thesis 60 Credits
    UNIVERSITY OF OSLO Department of informatics Holmenkollen Time Travel Developing a Situated Simulation for a handheld device Master thesis 60 credits Vegard Fleischer Orkelbog 31. January 2012 II Abstract Holmenkollen is a ski jumping hill, a place and a structure of cultural and historical importance in Norway. This thesis describes the development of the situated simulation Holmenkollen Time Travel (HTT), an application made for iPad2. The HTT allows a user to “travel in time” to experience four different versions of the ski jumping hill, hence the name. The application is tested on location by different user groups and the feedback from the individuals shows how the HTT can enhance a user’s experience of Holmenkollen. The application introduces some new developments to the concept of situated simulations, and is further analyzed within the theoretical framework of Augmented Reality and Place Specific Computing. III IV Acknowledgements I would really like to thank my supervisor Gunnar Liestøl for his excellent support during the whole process; it’s been a pleasure working with you. I would also like to thank those affiliated with the INVENTIO-Project who has given me a hand, and a special thanks to Tomas Stenarson who has been a really helpful during the development phase. Thanks to my informants, especially to Klaus Kromann in the Ski Federation. You have been a great asset to me. Mikkel, my good friend and colleague, you have been great support. You have given me lots of valuable input and motivation when I needed it the most. Thank you for being there! What would the days have been like without good friends and lunch-buddies?
