so, only Sorgente (it looks that any chance to see him starting for Italy in the next years have evaporated :cry:) and Barros are there among the top Vans Pro riders (and in fact they had to take 26 and not only 22 riders from the qualifying heats, because many -actually, 4- seeded guys finally didn't confirm their participation)...

Skateboarding (and surfing) are not widely developed so it isn't surprising that the sports struggle to get diversity, even concentrated to one continent diversity.

 

well, high level surfing is a lot more developed worldwide than skateboarding...;)

actually, ISA World Surfing Games medallists of the last couple of years come from all 5 continents...and also the top WSL surfers come from all continents (even if most of them are from USA, Brazil and Australia -in this case especially in the women's division)...

Just a question, where is Ivan Federico? Our federation say that he was scheduled to compete...

 

probably he had to pull out after last week's Vans Pro Tour finals, where he had an awful semifinal heat (no idea, but maybe he had a slight injury...who knows? :mumble:)...

    • Marco Girardelli went to Luxembourg one day and he had a great career. I doubt he did regret that move.

    • You know, but we still don't know what that was about. Ceccarelli has a difficult character but still changing colors to a country with which you have absolute no connetions? What would you say if Iga Swiatek fell out with the Polish tennis federation and started playing for Luxembourg or Andorra? Certainly not everyone would decide to take such a step, even if they had to give in a little in talks with the federation.    Another thing is that the Italian training system simply doesn`t work. As you can see, there are talents but we don`t know how to train them. Since the golden generation born in 1990-1995 (Brignone, Bassino, Goggia) we haven`t trained anyone who would stand on the podium in giant slalom or slalom in World Cup. So something is wrong. At the beginning of the 21st century we had a large group of good giant slalom athletes (maybe not at Brignone's level): Karbon, Moelgg, Putzer, Gius, etc., who were able to win World Cups, win World Championship medals, etc. Now we have no one. Take women's giant slalom for example: if Brignone and Bassino are gone, even getting to the XX World Cup will be a problem for us.
    • I remember that Lara Gut's family also had a conflict with the Swiss federation at the beginning of her career around 2008/2009 but it was resolved. I remember that the family also wanted to have a greater influence on their daughter's career. It was probably similar here. If there was a will from both sides, an agreement should have been reached. Especially since Colturi has zero ties with Albania. Sinner could have played for Austria sooner, as a person from South Tyrol.
    • Berrettini defeated Kokkinakis in 3 set   And now, it's Sinner time.
    • Well, it was to be expected that Colturi was going to have a breakout result like that sooner or later and the state of Italian alpine skiing will create some very long faces. But hey, if Italy  let their "best" prospect walk because of money then it's their fault. If there was some personal feud between Ceccarelli & federation it's even worse.
    • Stage 3 in Gurgl (AUT)   Women´s Slalom:   1. Mikaela Shiffrin    1:40.22 2. Lara Colturi    1:40.77 3. Camille Rast    1:40.79   Full Final Results HERE

    • WOW!!!!!    4-2 down and facing 3 German counters, Bruce Mouatt nails an amazing triple takeout to score 2!      4  4 after 4 ends.
