Because Hirscher is winning super g/downhill races? Also Hirscher will be gone soon while Shiffrin will dominate for many more years.

Shiffrin won 6 out of 7 slaloms, Hirscher won 4 out of 7. Shiffrin/Vlhova went 1-2 in 6 out of 7 races, theres in no way anyone can not call women's slalom the most boring discipline of all (apart from men's/women's alpine combined).

 

Men's SL/GS is more boring because Kristoffersen has dropped off the boil badly when it seemed 2-3 years ago he can challenge Hirscher. He simply can't these days. If Hirscher avoids injury he's got 5-6 years left and him doing only tech events actually helps his longevity. He only got beat on merit once in slalom this season, the other two he simply eased off too much in the 1st run thinking he can win at 80%.

More specifically, the way the combined is set up currently is a joke. The whole thing in itself is not bad at all if they manage to make it sort of balanced.

Austria without a single medal on the women's side and it may very well stay that way until the end. :yikes:

What a disaster performance for them.

The performances weren't actually that bad, after all they got two 4th places. It's just that the speed specialists all weren't able to convert the great shape they have had all season into medals. In the gs we were never gonna win a medal with Brunner injured and in the Slalom we will see. The slope really doesn't suit Schild, Gallhuber is injured so really that leaves us with Liensberger as the only realiatic medal contender and tbf that's not a very promising prospect

No way he is gonna continue that long though. He was already close to quitting last year and if I had to bet I'd actually put my money on him retiring after this season

What I'd really like was him giving it a proper go at super-gs but that's not gonna happen unfortunately.

He doesn't need SG to win the overall anymore. He will stay around if only to beat Stenmark's record. He's what, 18 wins behind? Though Shiffrin will probably eclipse them both.

Men's skiing is vastly superior. Quality wise, competition wise, entertainment wise.

Speed events, yes but not the technical ones.

I'm actually having only slalom in mind.

 

You're free to disagree of course, but in my mind it's easy *win* for the men. I guess thanks to some cool new kids from Croatia as well. But not only because of that. There are just way more interesting athletes participating in the men's side, skiing looks better to me, and it's also always a pleasure seeing Hirscher doing one of his mad runs that usually wins him the races.

      Shooting ISSF World Cup 2025

      By phelps · Posted

      so, the 2025 season is officially over, after the World Cup Finals have been completed with the Shotgun events, where (once again!!!) a new format for the final stage of each event has been experimented for the first time (before it becomes a regular feature in the next season)   the new format enlarge the starting field in each event's final stage to 8 shooters and dramatically shortens the number of target shots to decide the placings   the only characteristic remaining is the progressive eliminations principle   now, as written above, 8 shooters make the final, where after only 12 targets the eliminations start: by then, the last 2 shooters must leave the competition (7th and 8th ranked)   after 12 more targets (24 in total), 2 more shooters have to leave the final (5th and 6th ranked)   then, the crazy carousel starts: every 4 targets we have a new elimination  so, after 28 targets, the 4th ranked shooter is done; after 32 targets the bronze medallist is known and after only 36 targets (provided there's no need for a shoot-off), compared to the previous 60, the gold and silver medallists are crowned   I guess the tiktok people with the attention span of a chinchilla have won once again
