And, I could be wrong, but I believe she lives in California currently?

She's a very LA dude,

Sorry,I mean dudess...

Dudette (that is the proper term for a girl). I’ve enjoyed listening to her interviews. Her family has done a good job of protecting her, and she’s very smart for age. I’m kind of envious she’s not representing the US. She’s said some awesome things about inspiring other girls.

@heywoodu this time :NED Candy Jacobs couldn't make the final...she was "only" 11th in the semifinal heat (top 8 advancing)...

however, this time there was more :NED Dutch girls reaching the semis of this week's event...Keet Oldenbeuving was 14th and Roos Zwetsloot was 16th (out of the 30 riders qualified for the semifinals)...

Lizzie Armanto competes for the :USA again? She is listed as an American in the results rom Vans Park Series Paris and I believe XGames too. :FIN Olympic hopes are gone? Or maybe it's just a mistake?

I am unashamed, at getting nothing done.

No X Games had her listed as :FIN. She is most definitely representing :FIN. Vans Park probably just doesn’t care enough to change the graphics.

That was my first thought but they'd listed her as :FIN during earlier stops. But it probably is just a mistake if X Games listed her as Finnish.

the official worldskate olympic qualification ranking (after the last update, 15 days ago) still has Armanto as Finnish (and she's 3rd in the ranking, too)...:evil:

    • Nice for them, but also kind of too bad they pick the exact same two as last time. Would have been nice to see Regina Martinez for example (although I'm not sure that would have been logistically possible, depending on how they're going to do the flag bearer thing in the first place).

    • One of my favorite songs from the early 2000s that I listened to on a cassette on my walkman      
    • For me 20 medals will be good. And if more there are? Super. However, I prefer not to get my hopes up too much, so as not to be disappointed later.
    • If you're still taking suggestions, I tought the following:   Team Madison format.   17 teams of 2 "riders", randomly drawn. Teams can be named for famous "endurance" track cyclists. 4 intermediate "sprints", one after a voting block, in which the top 8 teams will score according to this formula: (10, 8, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2 & 1). The order in which team score for a sprint are determined by the total number of "medals" won by both members of the team during the block. Ranking will be sorted according to the number of gold medals, then silver, then bronze. If there's two or more teams with same number of points, the medals of best individual performer of each team will be considered to break the tie. If the tie remains, then team's total points during the block will be used to break it. If the team fails to receive a single medal during each block, it will be considered to "lose lap" and 20 points will be substracted from their score. If the team fails to score at least 1 point during each block, it will be an automatic DNF for the team. If both members of the team get a medal from a single jury, it will be considered to "gain lap" and 20 points will be added to their score. A team can only win an additional lap per voting block. After the 4 intermediate, a "final" sprint will be recorded, in which points will be doubled (20, 16, 12, 10, 8, 6, 4 & 2). Ranking for the final sprint will take into account the total medals won during the event.   What do you think?
    • I don't medal pick, per se... I assign probabilities/expected-values and total them up. So I don't have a gold medal estimate... but if you want one, divide those numbers by three and you'll be pretty close!   I imagine Norway, Italy and Netherlands and maybe Canada will probably skew a bit higher on golds, and US, Germany, and Sweden will skew a little lower... so maybe: Norway - 14 US - 11 Germany - 11 Italy - 11 Canada - 10 Austria - 8 Netherlands - 8 Japan - 7 Sweden - 6 France.- 6   I was surprised seeing Italy come in that high, I was figuring 22-23, but I guess they've been do well on the World Cups. 
    • If you were to predict top- 10 for the number of gold medals, what would it look like?     For me, as an Italian, any result for Italy: +20 medals would be OK (if that will include 6-7 gold medals). The trauma of Turin 2006 is too great
    • Doesn't really help that two of the strongest countries in that particular sport are banned from the team event for well known reasons.
