Mikaela Shiffrin's fiancé Aleksander Kilde reacts to compatriot Fredrik Moeller's Super-G victory in Italy

Mikaela Shiffrin's fiancé Aleksander Kilde recently reacted to his countrymate Fredrik Moeller's World Cup race in Bormio, Italy. Moeller clinched the victory in this Super-G race held on Sunday (Nov 29) after clocking a time of 1:29.22.

This victory also happened to be the 24-year-old's first Ski World Cup victory of his career. He defeated the likes of Vincent Kriechmayr and Alexis Monney, who eventually finished second and third in 1:29.42 and 1:29.46 respectively.

Kilde, being one of the senior Norwegian skiers, took little time to praise the impressive performance of his countrymate. He took to his Instagram handle to share a video of Moeller's race.

"Steady Freddy!! You Beast," Aleksander Kilde wrote on his Instagram stories.

On the other hand, Kilde is currently recovering from the injuries he faced after his crash at Wengen in January and is expected to be out for the entirety of the 2024-25 skiing season.
