LowerSaxony 205 Posted February 7, 2022 #301 Share Posted February 7, 2022 If Kytosaho would have been able to start, Finland might have won the Bronze, I guess. Adriano 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This sport really doesn't offer much medal changes outside of the big nations. I hope and enjoy their five minutes in the sun Actually Russia with the new complexes in Nizhny-Tagil, Chaikovski and Sochi (if they still use those lol) are showing a good improvement. Their results here, if generally unexpected are not that big of a shock. The men are doing points in the regular WC more often this season. I could see them garnering a middle of the pack position ala Slovenia or Japan in a few years. Monzanator 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

justony 444 Posted February 7, 2022 #305 Share Posted February 7, 2022 I am so happy but it is a funny feeling, our athletes almost never dominated like today. If there were no dsq, it should have been: Gold Silver Bronze Ofcourse not knowing how would have jumped in 2nd round. But still, congrats to (I dont care, this is the flag 😜) and .

There have been attempts to revive it over the years and nothing ever comes out of it.

Jan Linha 477 Posted February 7, 2022 #308 Share Posted February 7, 2022 This has been a really crazy competition. I was watching short track and aki jumping at the same time and in both I could not believe my eyes.... Cgrts to and ... The Olympic stories are often strong and unvelievable. Big upsets but yet I feel there might be a little scandal behind all the DSQ .... Some ppl may start digging ..... But hopefully not let's all believe that DSQ were all true and fair...... What I can just regret is if the :CZE, especially male, was on a level where they were couple years ago, it could be them winning this medal 😀😀..... Anyways, this story is huge Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FireRun 179 Posted February 7, 2022 #309 Share Posted February 7, 2022 Ski Jumping Canada is based in Calgary, but its national team operates out of Slovenia, a hotspot for the sport. Loutitt lives in Bled, while Strate, Soukup, Boyd-Clowes, Eilers and Nicole Maurer are in Kranj, about 30 minutes away. They all train together in Planica and compete all over Europe and Asia. Feels like we won two medals today. FancyFenchel, pdr4332, intoronto and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beating Czechia and Poland was really impressive for a tiny, underfunded program. intoronto, FancyFenchel and Jan Linha 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
