orangeman 1,314 Posted February 12, 2022 #12 Share Posted February 12, 2022 Bronze! Good for Odine finishing the race after being taken out by the evil Italian. And nice shot by Jenn in the 8th to get those 2 points. Surlympics 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some of these other teams have been appointed months in advance and practice like crazy. Homan and Morris had no idea until a month before the games.. so their level of practice would have been less than the other teams I agree. Trials should be much earlier and give teams time to prepare, especially mixed doubles. Surlympics 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With the Trials, you end up with teams like Homan who perform well in domestic competitions but always choke in the international event. Or have trials a full 6-12 months before the event, and put them to training ofan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

james89 438 Posted February 12, 2022 #16 Share Posted February 12, 2022 I'm relieved that O'Dine and Grondin got the bronze here, what a stressful event. It would have sucked to be taken down and then finished with another 4th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
