Nice to see Yohan Eskrick-Parkinson make it. He's featured on CBC's Olympic documentary.

We posted it at the same time

Exhibit 154 that the A/B division and how points are awarded is dumb. DNFing the A division shouldn't give more points than actually competing in the B division.

Weidemann doing the 1500?

Many of the men lined up for the start, but then just went off after the gun. I guess they had to start for points, but didn't want to risk injury. The announcers didn't really comment on it.

What happened?

Many of the men not actually completing the race in the 500, including both Canadians.

Lemarche 6th in the 500, Hiller-Donnelly 8th!

And an 11th in super G in Kitzbuehel!

Silver for Reece Howden in men's ski cross at the Veysonnaz WC!

Men's doubles team is competing at the Oberhof World Cup this weekend and already qualified for the main race.

Team Canada’s speed and halfpipe snowboard teams revealed for Milano Cortina 2026 - Team Canada Snowboard team for PGS, snowboard cross, and halfpipe has been named. Again, no surprises. I believe we're just missing 4 team announcements now: Alpine Bobsleigh Luge Ski Cross + the reallocated cross-country skiing quota announcement

The biathlon team, no surprises Women - Nadia Moser - Shilo Rousseau - Pascale Paradis - Benita Peiffer Men - Adam Runnalls - Logan Pletz - Zachary Connelly - Jasper Fleming

Anyone want to take a crack at guessing the women’s alpine skiing team? We have eight quotas, potentially nine, but besides the obvious names I have no idea on who will qualify.

Don't think so. There's no fixed amount of mixed relay quotas, it's only for teams that have a minimum of 1 male + 1 female athlete.

If Canada decline a second male does that mean a place opens up for another mixed team? If Canada 2nd team are also out?

I found that Bobsleigh Canada Skeleton has its own internal selection criteria. My guess would that be there wasn't a 2nd male athlete that met the requirements.

Yeah I guess that’s true but Montminy is also a youngster on the rise. And would be great to give her some Olympic experience since she is a world junior champion.

What’s the reasoning behind this?

I don’t get it? Only one woman competes in the team event and Thenault will the one. All of our moguls team has the potential for top 15 finishes (Fontaine and Montminy do as well, but lesser so), and Koehler who was on the brink of making the team is youngster on the rise.

Canada accepted two further re-allocation quotas in women’s alpine skiing. Up to 8.

Wow Canada declined a mens skeleton quota
