This is getting boring though, you can barely do anything or you're kicked out. What's left of the sport when people are DQ'ed who are hit by others? (like yesterday, a Chinese girl I believe was penalized after someone hit her hard, who was in turn advanced :crazy:)

 

I agree...it's a lot like modern keirin in track cycling...it's no longer the exciting sport it used to be...

 

but still, if those rules are in place, you have to play according to them...and someone is not always doing that...

 

p.s. yesterday, it was Seidel who was advanced despite being guilty of that crash...

They do that all the freaking time. Same for World Cups or something (and same for FIL in the luge).    IBSF is by far the best: live streams on YouTube (bonus points for best platform), wit

On the topic of no information, @heywoodu . I think I'd have a higher chance to find out what's going to happen to me in the following ten years of my life, than finding out if anybody from Lithuania

Yeah, I meant Seidel. That was just outright stupid: crashing out someone else, falling together with that person and you get advanced while your victim gets penalized :lol: 

 

It's like you shoot someone in the legs and while doing so, the backfire hurts your hand, after which the judge sends your victim to jail and you get money for the damage to your hand :p

There are way too many DQs in short track compared to like 5-6 years ago. And it's hard to watch when the video review lasts longer than the race itself. That's why I don't follow this event on live TV. I watched two 1500 SFs, saw the Schulting BS and I turned it off.

in the last few years, they repeatedly changed the rules for safety reasons...

that's why nowadays almost nothing is allowed anymore..you just have to keep your line and skate as fast as you can...

Interestingly, ex-shorttrack skater Niels Kerstholt (also Dutch, he's in the TV studio) was very much agreeing with the penalty and called Schulting's defending 'incredibly stupid' :p 

 

I don't watch it live a lot anymore though, usually I watch the replays so I can skip through the eternal waits :p

as I wrote before, Schulting's mistake was actually evident and "stupid" (at least, really unnecessary)...

other calls, instead, were at least more questionable...

      Winter Olympic Games Milano Cortina 2026 Team Sizes

      By hckošice · Posted

      will have 5 representatives in Luge at the 2026 Olympics.      Jozef Ninis (Top pic) in the M Singles will compete at his 6th consecutive WOG !!! He debuted in Torino 2006 to close the circle in another Italian resort in 2026, by this he set the new Slovak Winter Olympic record of participation and tie the all time one with Erik Vlček competing at 6 games in Sprint Canoeing as well.   The remaining quartet (Pic 2) will debut at the Olympics, all still Juniors Christián Bosman & Bruno Mick in the M Doubles and still schoolgirls Viktória Praxová & Desana Špitzová in the olympic premiere of the W Doubles     Must also be said, that we were quite unlucky in this qualifiers periode, Marián Skupek missed the second M Singles quota by 1 point and ended first non-qualified athlete and the experienced doubles Vaverčák/Zmij which was in clear qualifying position ended the season after Vaverčák injured his knee in the training before the Sigulda race 2 weeks ago   Also for the first time no W Singles participation for us meaning also obviously no participation in the Mixed Relay competition for the first time as well   Team (Updated as of 12th January 2026) 40 Athletes (30 M + 10 W)

      Hypothetically she could meet the minimum standards still with a high placement in the NAC event tomorrow. Seems unlikely to me, but still possible.

      Yea she did not meet the minimum points. Since the event doesn't have enough qualifiers, its possible the FIS still grants her a quota
