Winter Youth Olympic Games 2024

[phelps 8,381]

however, looking at the first 3 training runs, it's clear that women's luge already has a winner before the competition starts...

 

and guess what? it's from  

 

 should edge out  for silver and bronze, but I wouldn't count the second  out yet 

[phelps 8,381]

 favourite over  in the men's doubles (luge)

 

the Germans look too much behind to overtake the top 2 pairs

women's monobob might become the closest competition at the sliding center, meanwhile men's monobob is already set for Home glory

well, my schedule doesn't think the same... 

 

Hockey season, Basketball season, NFL playoffs, Handball and Waterpolo Europeans, Wintersports season (with all the not-to-be-missed "classics"), Fencing season, Football Asian and African Cup...

 

last weekend was already dramatic to follow, the next one is even worse...

Your schedule is pretty tame compared to mine actually. 
 

Australian Open, all Canucks/Bills/Warriors matches, Turkish club season volleyball, men’s/women’s field hockey OQTs, a whole bunch of winter sport WCs (all the Olympic ones + ice cross), WTT Contenders Doha, Asian Shotgun Championships, BWF India Open, and Grand Slam Of Curling Canadian Open. There’ll probably also be more sports/events that will get added to the list as the week goes on 

 

Handball and Waterpolo Europeans would be there too, but unfortunately can’t find any streaming links anywhere. If you have a free one then please share.

 but oh my ... seriously... this schedule is really catastrophic.

 

Everything at same time and all only in the night, nothing, absolutely nothing in the local afternoon/evening - European morning/afternoon

 

and Saturday 27th is completely brutal. Saturday and only 2 Dual Moguls finals  https://olympics.com/gangwon-2024/en/results/all-sports/daily-schedule-date=2024-01-27.htm

How does it matter? Streaming is available only for Curling, Ice Hockey, Ski Jumping and Skating sports. No overlapping whatsover

To be fair, if every continental event in all the sports and lots of national championships and entire World Cup seasons of nearly all Olympic sports are on your calendar, there really isn't going to be a time where you've got two weeks available for this  

 

If it was in March, it would be bad timing because of South German dressage championships, and in November because of the Abkhazian curling classics  (nothing against you, it's the same for me, there is never an 'empty moment' except for basically two weekends a year when most winter sports are done and the summer things didn't really start yet and vice versa )

Yeah, the IOC probably wants the Youth Olympics to mostly be a thing where people go "Oh right, let me quickly check the results" and that's it

 sending four(!!) biathletes is quite something
