I'm surprised no one tried to force Parkour into this.

Parkour is most certainly not a beach sport. Parkour is one of the only legitimately urban sports out there.

This is the picture the official website shows:   This setting is easily something I would expect from a gay porn movie.

I explained why this one made sense earlier. Street skating, Parkour, and Breaking are arguably the most urban sports in existence. 

 

When the games were were supposed to be held in San Diego it made sense to include Park skating. First and foremost because the World Urban Games didn’t exist yet. Second because in California, Park Skating is highly associated with beaches. The most iconic skatepark in the world is at Venice Beach. So it made sense for skating to be included. Hopefully that answers your question.

 

As for Boulder, I’m pretty sure someone got drunk or hit their head after a good day of climbing and some how came to the conclusion that it’s a beach sport.

I honestly thought you were joking, and now I'm even more baffled to know you are not.

@hckosice :SVK should have had 6 athletes in Qatar, but the NOC or athletes rejected quotas for Sport Climbing and Open Water Swimming :cry:

 

Apparently we will have 4. Our NOC decided to accept the femal marathon swimming quota for Karolína Balážiková. Let´s hope she will not accidentally swim into Iran.

It’s a shame they rejected the Boulder quota :(. I’ve never seen a Slovak climber before.

Team Turkey :TUR consists 13 athletes in 3 diciplines. 3 in Karate , 2 in Kite and 8 in Beach wrestling.

:TUR should have a decent chance at winning a medal here. I’m shocked they didn’t qualify a bigger team to be honest. I guess the lack of combat sports really hurts them.

      On the LA28 Facebook, they announced that they won't be releasing all sports/sessions in Drop 1 due to high demand in the local presale.  I'm curious what that might be.

      Update after Matchdays 8 and 9.   Group A:  is almost a lock with 21p, and 7 games 7 wins. Almost impossible for them to not qualify. The battle is in the second place between  (16p) and  (13p).  with 8p is almost out.  and  eliminated.   Group B:  won both of the 2 games so is almost secured with 19p.  is second with 14p, with  (1 more game played) and  with 11p.  is eliminated and  practically too (6p)   Group C:  went 2 out of 2 so they are still first with 16p and one game less than the rest. The battle for second place will be between  14p,  11p and  9p.  eliminated and  (with one game less and 4p) probably too.   Group D: Only 3 for 2 places.  first with 19p has the advantage, but coming close is  with 16p. They played each other in the Matchday 11 of 12. Coming in third behind is  with 11p. ,  and  eliminated.   Group E: Both  and  won both matches so its still the same, Poland first with 24p and Italy second with 21p, which is the best runner-up and also qualifying directly, so is very likely that both teams end up qualifying no matter who finish first and second. , ,  and  eliminated.   Group F: A tie between  18p and  18p. Germany has the goal advantage (+21 to +20), and has to play the three weaker teams, so its more likely to qualify. Coming behind are  with 10p and  with 9p, which are practically eliminated with  and   Group G:  takes the advantage with 12p and one game less.  and  both have 7p, and coming behind are  5p (but one game less) and  with 5p.   Group H:  with the win against  moved to first place with 13p (and one game less), and Turkey stays in second with 11p.  is coming in third with 8p, while  is eliminated and  have 3p and one game less.   Group I: A triple tie between ,  and  with 10p.
