World Skate Games 2024
Posted

Raicca Ventura is the world champion in women's park. A great result for what was our worst discipline in olympic skateboarding. :thumbup:

 

I don't think the olympic medalists were there, but a score of 93.73 should be enough to compete with them and maybe beat them. High expectations for her in this cycle.

Fair, but this Volleyball final means very little in the grand scheme of things...

Well, it's difficult to compete, but I remember that the women's handball final had a great audience.

 

Perhaps if the organizers hadn't decided to put ALL the team sport finals at the same time, we could have had a different scenario.

250k people are watching the volleyball final, while only 5,000 are watching the handball final (which is an Olympic qualifying event, of course). This unfortunately shows the priorities of our sport...

It's a final for the second most popular sport in the country against its biggest rival. This couldn't be any different.

I think so. She did the medal mark one time and never again...

Unfortunately. It must be frustrating for an athlete. Not to mention that the status of world medalist ends up creating great pressure on her.

 

Let's hope she can get out of this "curse".

Brazil looks more decent at field hockey than I expected, considering it's our worst Olympic sport. 

 

Two days ago we lost to Canada by just 2 goals and today we beat Trinidad and Tobago.

Brazil beats Mexico 3-2 in women's volleyball and wins the silver medal in the tournament. After the disaster of 2019, we will finish with a medal here.

 

Now, let's try the miracle against the Dominican Republic. :pope:

Well your A-squad isn’t here… so no chance your women beat Dominican Republic.

I don't think we're going to beat the Dominican Republic, but I think you're underestimating their ability to lose easy games. :d

 

Don't forget that the same team that beat Serbia and China in Olympic qualification also lost to the Czech Republic.
