Well, Gangwon 2024 is now officially over 

 

From Agnese Campeol winning a historic first ever medal (silver) for Thailand in girl’s monobob, to the historic debuts of five countries (Algeria, Puerto Rico, Nigeria, Tunisia, United Arab Emirates), to Great Britain winning double gold in curling, to Brazil winning their first ever medal in boy’s snowboard cross (bronze) with Zion Bethonico, to Flora Tabanelli’s double gold in women’s freeski slopestyle/big air, to short track speed skating controversy where Zhang Bohao was suspected of intentionally arm blocking the South Korean gold medal favourite to hand his Chinese teammate the gold medal. These games brought us memories to last a lifetime. Some good, some bad, but one things for sure I’ll always remember Gangwon 2024. 
 

Finally, a very special thanks to @Olympian1010@intoronto @hckošice @heywoodu@phelps for all your contributions to this thread during the games 

 

See you all at the next one folks, Paris 2024 is less than six months away!

P.S.  Nikki Jensen, Jacob Schmidt, Katrine Schmidt, and Emilie Holtermann, you gained a new fan in me here. Hopefully I’ll be seeing all of you on the senior stage in a couple years time

By the way, the Winter YOG joins the list of multi-sports games without a host confirmed for the next cycle.

[OlympicsFan 858]

Medals were very evenly distributed, 8 nations each with 15 - 20 medals. Canada and Norway (and Switzerland) were rather disappointing.

Medal winners that are most likely to shine at the 2026 winter olympics (in my opinion):

Mao Shimada (women's figure skating)

Shin Ji-a (women's figure skating)

Angel Daleman (women's speed skating/short track)

Taja Bodlaj (women's ski jumping)

Ingvild Midtskogen (women's ski jumping)

Lee Chae-un (men's snowboard)

Eli Bouchard (men's snowboard)

Yura Murase (women's snowboard)

Lucia Georgalli (women's snowboard)

Hanna Karrer (women's snowboard)

Rise Kudo (women's snowboard)

Sara Shimizu (women's snowboard)

Alessandro Barbieri (men's snowboard)

Flora Tabanelli (women's ski freestyle)

Elizabeth Lemley (women's ski freestyle)

Porter Huff (men's ski freestyle)

Luke Harrold (men's ski freestyle)

Charlie Beatty (men's ski freestyle)

Yishan Liu (women's ski freestyle)

Zihan Chen (women's ski freestyle)

Finley Melville Ives (men's ski freestyle)

Jingru Yang (women's short track)

Jinzi Li (women's short track)

Anna Falkowska (women's short track)

Minji Kang (women's short track)

Xinzhe Zhang (men's short track)

 

German athletes who might have an impact at the 2026 winter olympics:

Muriel Mohr (women's ski freestyle)

Finn Sonnekalb (men's speed skating)

if everything goes well,  might host them, just (2 years) after the "true" Winter Games

 

at least, all the infrastructure should still be in place (except for the speedskating track, but for the Youth events I'm pretty sure that the IOC would accept Baselga or Collalbo as they are -open air tracks, I mean- with no complaint)

[phelps 7,706]

p.s. tbh, I didn't really expect to see  on top of the medal table, even in this small version of the Winter Games 

 

that's something to remember for the ages

 

hope it's a good sign on the road to Paris 2024

 might end up with 2025 WU, 2026 WO/WP, 2028 WO. They've already hosted the 2019 Winter Deaflympics and 2023 Winter EYOF, so I guess your nation's goal was to host every winter multi-sport event in the span of a decade
