The Norwegian Pro Team Andiamo Fleischer Finans returns to the Ski Classics Pro Tour for its second season, continuing its journey in the circuit with youthful energy and strong community roots.
Founded in April 2024, the team quickly made its mark in its debut year, finishing 28th overall in the Pro Team ranking during Season XVI. With a mix of established athletes and emerging names, the team enters Season XVII with ten athletes — four women and six men — all born between the mid-1990s and early 2000s.
“Team Andiamo Fleischer Finans was founded in April 2024 and is a Norwegian long-distance racing team. One of the team members works at Andiamo Sports, which holds the agency for importing Sportful and Castelli sportswear from Italy. ‘Andiamo’ means ‘let’s go’ in Italian. The Andiamo community consists of approximately 30 people located in and around Oslo, all of whom share a passion for long-distance skiing. The Pro Team serves as the spearhead of the group, delivering the best performances last winter,” says Pro Team Director and athlete Ivar Andre Ryttervold.
Growing community and racing spirit
The Andiamo concept reflects the team’s blend of enthusiasm and ambition — a name that captures both the Italian inspiration and the forward-moving spirit of its athletes. With most members based in the Oslo region, the team operates as part of a larger community of recreational and competitive skiers, working together to build a sustainable structure for long-distance racing in Norway.
For the upcoming Ski Classics Season XVII (2025/2026), the team’s lineup includes: Sigrid Bye (1999), Hedda Nerdrum (1998), Sandra Vestly Sirevåg (1998), Oda Aanestad (2003), Halvor Kleivi (1996), Ivar Andre Ryttervold (1997), Erling Moseby (1997), Viljar Buer Christensen (1996), Kjetil Stuge Bånerud (1997), and Martin Mobråthen (2003).
