Team Aker Dæhlie has presented its Pro Team squad for the Ski Classics World Championship Season XVIII.

The Norwegian Pro Team will line up nine Pro Team athletes, six men and three women, under the guidance of coach Søndre Bollum.

The men’s roster is unchanged from last season and includes Season XVII overall World Championship winner Amund Riege, Kasper Stadaas, Mathias Aas Rolid, Petter Stakston, Gaute Kvåle, and Sweden’s Max Novak.

Three new faces join on the women’s side. Louise Lindström and Kati Roivas arrive from the recently disbanded Team Eksjöhus, while Julie Kvale Støstad joins from the also disbanded Team Ramudden. Støstad won the inaugural sprint in Bédřichov during Season XVII and will now be teammates with her partner Gaute Kvåle.
