World Cup - Cross Country Skiing (British skier as well)

[TordFuglstad]

So this Wednesday I went to the FIS Cross Country Ski World Cup race in Drammen, which is kind of a big deal in a lot of countries. It was packed with people in the city centre, when the best skier in the world (of course) won the race. He is the skiing answer to Usain Bolt, just a little more bad ass.

Gear used: D800, D7000, 24-120 F4 and 70-200 F2.8

Take a look here at all the images: http://www.flickr.com/photos/fuglstad/sets/72157632999338730/with/8558845950/

Here is "the king" as he is called, known for his insane press-handling and funny stuff.

When he won, he of course had to do something special. This time he chose to conquer the world cup race.

So there are no one in here interested in Cross Country skiing?

I am interested in the skiing but I find the shots a little bland. Processing is a bit 'meh' and no spectacular action shots to view.
