Wouldn't seem impossible with 10 teams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm watching the first semifinal (USA vs FIN) right now (I'm in the 2nd period, 7 mins still to be played)...and there's no match even at this stage... frankly, I'm not interested at all in watching other games like GER vs SUI or RUS vs CZE in their female version... dcro 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its a 2 sided game but there is been huge progress in improvement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

heywoodu 13,540 Posted February 27, 2018 #15 Share Posted February 27, 2018 Still only in the project phase? Seriously, any nation that gets the Winter Olympics but doesn't have it's bobsled track up and running 3-4 years before the Olympics is just being plain stupid. That should be the very first priority in terms of building as soon as you've received the Olympic hosting rights. Beijing got the rights in 2015, now it's almost three years later and they could easily have already had hundreds of training runs on there, followed by 3-4 years of pure perfection in the race lines. If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated!

heywoodu 13,540 Posted February 27, 2018 #16 Share Posted February 27, 2018 Also, no Kreisel. That track looks so insanely boring.

NearPup 2,156 Posted March 5, 2018 #20 Share Posted March 5, 2018 Would the Telemark events be added as part of alpine skiing or as a new discipline? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
