Petter Eliassen

Petter Eliassen is a familiar name in the world of Ski Classics. From 2015, the Norwegian skier started in 50 Pro Tour and 2 Challengers events. Eliassen’s name is carved in the Ski Classics Hall of Fame with 13 wins. His first victory was at König Ludwig Lauf in 2015, and his last was at Vasaloppet in 2020.

In 2019, Eliassen was in the lead and won Marcialonga. This weekend, Petter Eliassen is the expert commentator for SC Play on the season’s first Grand Classics event.

Petter Eliassen went to the World Championships for Norway in 2011 and 2013, but it was after that, that he took a step over to Ski Classics, and the big victories started to come.

Already in his first season with a full long-distance focus, he won four Ski Classics events, including Vasaloppet and Birkebeinerrennet.
