It is especially the standing shooting of Kvelvane that causes news’s experts to close their eyes. – Standing duck shooting has always been Marte Olsbu Røiseland’s signature since she was a junior. She was quite exceptional at shooting quickly and well. Julie also has great potential and enormous talent and it will be very exciting to follow her further, says news’s commentator Ola Lunde about the biathlon talent. It is the first season the 17-year-old from Voss has shot standing shooting in competition, and it has even resulted in a clear overall victory in the Norwegian Cup in her age group. – I feel very safe. At the start of the season I was much better standing than lying down. I have dry training every day, and have been very good at both, I know, says a confident 17-year-old to news. BRIGHT FUTURE: If Kvelvane does everything right, it can reach the top, say the experts. Photo: Peder Torp Mathisen / news – I am very, very impressed! In her senior debut in the NM in Alta, Vossingen showed what she was good at. In the sprint, he filled 9 out of 10 blinkers and was still in 28th place out of 98 starters, just behind well-known elite athletes. On the relay, Kvelvane went on the second leg for the second team to Hordaland. Here she skated two full houses (with extra shots) and was number three from the last shooting. The team ended up in tenth place. – It was a bit difficult, at least standing up. Nevertheless, I felt that I was able to be in my own bubble and get down the shots I needed, says Kvelvane about the relay effort. SKIING EXPERT: Synnøve Solemdal. Photo: Julia Marie Naglestad / news news’s expert commentator Synnøve Solemdal uses big words to describe the efforts of the junior from Voss. – I am very, very impressed! It is the first year Julie shoots standing in competition. Being on the last stand with a couple of misses, then taking them down on extra shots – that’s very impressive. Those she shoots against have been shooting standing in competition for at least ten years. Kvelvane admits that she was nervous before the competition, but that she managed to keep her cool: – I was a little nervous when I stood on the starting line, but I had made good preparations and I knew what I had to do throughout the race. I just tried to think about them and do as I usually do. COMMENTATOR: Ola Lunde. Photo: Anders Boine Verstad / news – I thought it was a very good debut. She was only two seconds behind Ragnhild Femsteinevik at the finish in the sprint. It is clear that she has trained a lot on standing shooting and that she is training correctly, Lunde believes. Will be as good as Thingnes Bø The junior also has clear goals for the future. – I dream of the Olympics and becoming as good as Johannes (Thingnes Bø), smiles Vossingen, who attends Norway’s Top Sports Gymnasium in Geilo. – How are you going to achieve that? – Training over several years. Not least by training correctly and staying healthy so that you get good continuity in your training, replies the targeted biathlete. WINNING MENTALITY: Julie Tronerud Kvelvane has the plan ready to be the best. Photo: Peder Torp Mathisen / news Solemdal nods. She knows what it takes to reach the top. – It is as Julie says. If you make the right choice over many years, it is absolutely possible, says the former biathlete. Lunde also believes that everything is possible, but recalls that many great talents never achieved success at an adult age: – Everything is absolutely possible, but there is a long way to go from where she is now, as a very good 17-year-old, to reaching at the highest level. There is a lot of talent that has not reached the top. Julie has an incredible number of good qualities, so if she does things right, has good health and the right people around her, she can be very good. Lunde believes the most important thing is to listen to your body. – It’s about being smart and not getting too eager so that you go off on a whim, he notes.
