He most recently worked as a coach with Lindsey Vonn's team; the collaboration ended in April. Whether Vonn (43) will make a comeback after her severe fall at the Olympic Games is currently uncertain.
Svindal is primarily tasked with looking after the technical specialists among the Norwegians. "Aksel is a good analyst; he proved that as an athlete and as Lindsey's coach. We are fortunate to have him on board," says Norway's Alpine director Claus Ryste.
