On the 21st during the men's 50km classical event at the Winter Olympics in Milan-Cortina, Norwegian star Johannes Høsflot Klæbo triumphantly secured victory in all six ski events, showcasing an extraordinary performance. He led a Norwegian sweep of the podium in a competitive race that turned into a match race in its closing stages, demonstrating an eye-catching technique known as the 'Clebo Step' on the final uphill. This powerful sprint allowed him to pull away from his competitors, cementing his dominance in the sport.

Klæbo's historic achievement surpasses the previous record for the most gold medals in a single Winter Olympics, previously held by American speed skater Eric Heiden with five golds in 1980. With this latest victory, Klæbo has now accumulated a total of 11 gold medals in his Winter Olympic career, a new high in the history of the Winter Games. His performance not only reaffirms his status as the best in cross-country skiing but also contributes to Norway's overall impressive medal count in the Games, which now stands at 18 golds, breaking the record for the most golds won by a single country in one Olympic event.

The performance of Klæbo and the innovative 'Clebo Step' has garnered significant attention, not only in Norway but also internationally, including Japan, where fans are increasingly recognizing the technique's significance. Klæbo expressed pride in the growing interest surrounding cross-country skiing, especially noting the viral moments from his recent races, which have drawn more viewers to the sport. This success highlights Norway's dominance in winter sports and Klæbo's pivotal role in reshaping the competitive landscape, elevating both his personal and the nation’s legacy in the Winter Olympics.
