Snowboard at the Winter Olympic Games Beijing 2022

did it ever happened ? I mean it sounds a very unlikely scenario . only if 2 snowboarders are very very injured that they can't even stand on the board. because just finishing the race is enough. Short Track is a different thing. lots of guys get disqualified

 

I remember we had the small final in 2018 even when we had 6 snowboarders in the final

I remember it happening once but don't remember where/when. The chances are really low of it happening, but they have the race to prevent the scenario (how unlikely it may be) from happening

Its also if two people crash out and do not finish in the A final... sort of like short track speed skating.

in snowboardcross, if they crash out, they are still ranked within the heat (using the seeding runs time, if needed), it's only if they get DSQ that the small final skaters have a chance to medal...

What is the purpose of small final other than for placement?

actually, it's only on placement's purpose...because normally world cup points are up fro grabs and any place in the final ranking is important...

 

of course the Olympics are a different thing, but they still prefer having athletes ranked after a true run instead of using the seeding runs time...

Like everyone else said, mostly placement. It also lets the audience see another race, and gives OBS a chance to play with their toys :p

 

The camera angle on Eguibar :ESP when he got caught in that crash was great though. A good way to show how intense the sport is.

Well, that was a very nice-to-watch and inventive run for David Taylor. I am assuming likely not enough for the podium, because rotations? :p

The talent level here is insane.  The tricks these guys are throwing down are so far ahead of 4 years ago

    • I have reported this again and they said it should be fixed now, please let me know if you are still facing issues.
    • more countries added to the list of US ban    you can't travel to USA if you are from : burkina faso , niger , Laos , South sudan , mali , sierra leon ...
    • Yes, but what I mean for Serbia is that everything changed there (unfortunately for us ). 2022 was an unbelievable mess, that's not the case anymore now with just one athlete who has really gone for it and made it, so I'm 99% sure they'll accept it this time.   Who knows though. Plus there's always 1-2 bigger countries here or there who reject something, but it's not gonna be 16 places I'm afraid   
    • Doping by Event Type When we look at which events have the most doping cases, a few categories stand out from recent sanction records: Long Distance (3,000m and above): 32% of cases Sprints (400m or less): 24% of cases Jumps: 12% of cases Javelin: 8% of cases Middle Distance (800m–1,500m): 8% of cases Hammer: 8% of cases Steeplechase (3,000m SC): 4% of cases
    • From 2020 to 2025    These three countries alone make up almost two-thirds (61.9%) of all current doping violations in athletics worldwide. It’s worth noting that 199 of World Athletics’ 214 member federations have no athletes on the current ban list. This means the problem is really concentrated in a small number of places. Here’s a look at the top countries: Rank Country Total Violations Percentage Region 1 Kenya 119 24.74% Africa 2 India 108 22.45% Asia 3 Russia 73 15.18% Europe 4 China 26 5.40% Asia 5 Turkey 20 4.16% Europe 6 Italy 18 3.74% Europe 7 South Africa 18 3.74% Africa 8 Ukraine 17 3.53% Europe 9 United States 16 3.33% North America 10 Morocco 15 3.12% Africa
    • Here's my calculations of the quotas.

    • Mykolas and Rūta are athletes of the year,no surprises there.
