About Amund Sjøbrend
- Amund Martin Sjøbrend (born 1 December 1952) is a former ice speed skater from Norway. Together with Sten Stensen, Kay Stenshjemmet, and Jan Egil Storholt, Amund Sjøbrend was one of the legendary four S-es (which sounds like "four aces" in Norwegian), four Norwegian top skaters in the 1970s and early 1980s.
- His first international success came in 1974, when he won silver at the European Allround Championships.
- Sjøbrend participated at the 1976 Winter Olympics in Innsbruck, but had no success there.
- In 1977, he won bronze at the European Allround Championships. Sjøbrend was more or less in the shadow of the other three of the four S-es until he had his best year in 1981.
- That year, he became both European Allround Champion and World Allround Champion.
- For his accomplishments, he received the Oscar Mathisen Award that same year.
