Trond Harald Sand was born with skis on his feet. The aim is to be the first and last out skiing – news Innlandet – Local news, TV and radio

The case in summary: Trond Harald Sand is known for being the first to go skiing in the Lillehammer mountains, and a top skier when the season is good. He started this year’s ski season in a snowstorm on Øyerfjellet between Lillehammer and Øyer municipalities. Sand has his own skis which he uses early in the season when there is little snow, and when there is more snow he uses another pair – called gravel ski one and gravel ski two. He has previously started the ski season as early as September 26, and ended as late as July 4. Sand must ski a mile, even if it means going back and forth on a snow shovel. He has a personal license plate that says “Snøvill”. The summary is made by an AI service from OpenAI. The content is quality assured by news’s ​​journalists before publication. At half past seven on Saturday morning, Trond Harald Sand was in place. In front of him, on Øyerfjellet between Lillehammer and Øyer municipalities, there was a full blizzard. It was windy and snowing so that it was really sour and unpleasant, he has to admit. But it did nothing. Because the ski season is finally open! Just calling a spade a spade. Trond Harald Sand is simply crazy about snow. Photo: Privat Born with skis on his feet For the past ten to fifteen years, 49-year-old Sand has set himself the goal of being the first to ski in the Lillehammer mountains. Today’s date, 28 September, is not the earliest he has been out to slide across the field. Four years ago, he was already able to strap on his skis on 26 September. – But sorry, aren’t you afraid of damaging the skis… I mean, maybe there isn’t as much snow everywhere? – No, I have skis that I’m not too afraid of. Grusski 1 is the ski pair with quite a lot of scratches in it. He uses it on his first trip. When there is a little more snow and somewhat better conditions, it’s time for gravel skis two. – These are skis I have used as gravel skis for many years. Today’s trip went from Reinakrysset to Hornsjøvegen on Øyerfjellet. Sand met no other skiers, but a couple of hunters without skis, he can tell.

The last time he went skiing in the Lillehammer Mountains was on July 4, he claims. Then the enthusiast finds a snow shovel at the back of Lake Sjusjøen, behind one of the peaks where the snow lays down thick and well throughout the winter, and takes plenty of time to melt. – Then I often got up and walked back and forth there and got a mile, then. According to Trond Harald Sand, he has only regretted going on a ski trip once. Because there won’t be a proper ski trip until he has walked at least a mile, and it will be too poor to have to sub in bad conditions that far. Photo: Private Because it’s not a proper ski trip if he hasn’t walked at least one mile. Ten-eleven-twelve kilometres, then he is satisfied. – Are there big skirmishes, or do you just go around in circles? – It goes around in circles. It was probably 500-600 meters that I went on this spring, Sand answers. When do YOU ​​strap on your skis? Ski trip? No ugh, never! 🥶 When there has been a little more snow than just five centimetres! 😬 At the first snowflake! ❄️ Normally around Christmas time, and then at Easter, then 🎄 I don’t really know, and I don’t care either, so… 😶 Show result And today’s trip? It went super well, with about five centimeters of snow on the ground. Is it any wonder that his roommate got him a personal license plate that says “Snøvill”? Published 28.09.2024, at 12.39
