There is no limit of athletes per country, for instance I am not sure, but I think that the seeds come from the performance on the previous stage exactly... and of course France has already been spotted by the judges at no. 1 in both the boys and girls events. no doubt that they will win a lot in the next couple of years and especially at the Home Olympics. gotta love the activities where the ranking is already known before the start.

Bearas 365 Posted October 21, 2022 #22 Share Posted October 21, 2022 Not a great pairing for Nicka to go against World Games champion Ami Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoshMartini007 2,214 Posted October 21, 2022 #23 Share Posted October 21, 2022 (edited) Good start for Canada, all the more reason to fast track this sport to a permanent spot at the Olympics. Edited October 21, 2022 by JoshMartini007 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bearas 365 Posted October 22, 2022 #24 Share Posted October 22, 2022 Actually enjoying the TV production. The massive let down is that it is impossible to find out results! szy123 and phelps 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are there any rules for judging it this time? I remember that at the Youth Olympics it was basically "Which do you like best? The one going first or the one going second?" and that's how they decided who won Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phelps 6,872 Posted October 22, 2022 #27 Share Posted October 22, 2022 however, medal matches are being contested right now, if someone is interested... Ayumi has just taken the girls bronze medal are also in the Gold Medal match vs vs for bronze among the boys, where the GMM is between and I expected some French participation in the final 4, but this time the Asian connection and the North-American bias have been stronger. is the only "geographical" exception...
