Rabe had tryouts with American ice dancer Timothy Koleto in November 2014 in Lyon, France, and the following month in Novi, Michigan, where he trained.[2] They agreed to skate together for Norway. In May 2015, Rabe moved to the United States to train with Koleto.[3] Igor Shpilband, Adrienne Lenda, Fabian Bourzat, and Greg Zuerlein coached the team in Novi, Michigan.[1]
After being released by South Korea and sitting out one year, as required by the International Skating Union, Koleto became eligible to compete for Norway beginning October 20, 2015.[2] Making their international debut, Rabe/Koleto won the bronze medal at the Volvo Open Cup in November 2015. They placed 8th at the Open d'Andorra and CS Warsaw Cup. Despite qualifying to the 2016 European Championships, they decided to end their partnership a few weeks before the event.[3][4] They were Norway's first-ever ice dancing team.[2]
