The first event is set to take part this week, you can watch and see results here.

 

This is an Olympic qualification series where the top 10 eligible men and top 8 eligible women qualify to the Olympics (max two athletes per nation per event and they must finish in the top 34 and 18 respectively).

 

The eligibility requirements likely won't matter too much for the men (outside of the two athletes per nation rule for :AUS :BRA :USA ), but for the women it might. Only seven eligible athletes are part of the main group, but the first injury reserve is from :POR and thus could sneak into the Olympics should she get enough appearances. She is set to compete in this event, replacing :FRA Defay who needs to get better soon lest she gives up what is essentially a free quota.

:AUS Robinson defeated :ITA Fioravanti in the men's final.

 

Likewise, :HWI Moore won over :USA Peterson in the women's final.

 

Next stop is literally down the road at Sunset Beach in Hawaii. The schedule hasn't been set yet, but we can start as early as this Sunday.

An amazing start for Fioravanti, he is obsessed for Olympics. Peterson also was very disappointed when lost the second quota for USA. Both will battle for these places.

    • Unfortunate, but it doesn't change the fact that I'm looking forward to Thursday evening, when the team captain's meeting is over and we have our very first World Cup start list of the season. Always a cool moment to see who's there and everything  
    • Today I unpacked some of the boxes in which we have put my way too many books to move to our house, and I came across these beauty's I hadn't seen for a while     Absolutely recommended, tough to get for a decent price, but they are such an interesting read with lots of very interesting little stories! Still looking for at least 1900, 1904 and 1906, but not really in the right moment to spend money on that now, so the wait goes on  
    • Which I guess is part of why unfortunately 'our' first wild card attempt of the season was rejected last week  
    • The next chapter in the Krasnobaeva saga is upon us.   Looks like  Armenia have cut ties with her after only a few weeks. A person from their Federation has said, that they won't continue the relationship, because of her unprofessional and rude attitude towards the coaches and other officials. That includes: - having no respect to the coaches and their advise; - training without any motivation; - stops doing the routine and throws objects without any reason; - just lays on the floor and ignores the music.   When this was escalated with her mother, she mentioned that "Elvira has a strong temper and she was the same in Bulgaria and they tolerated her". Which of course is complete BS. If anyone attempted this shit here, they would be thrown out immediately.   And now  are wanting from her mother to return all finances they gave them, which she is refusing, so they will probably sue them. They will also inform other RG Federations about this situation, so they don't hire them.   My 2 cents on this is most likely Krasnobaeva was happy in BG and was forced out by her mother, so now she is sabotaging the move and be done with it.
    • Honestly Ruka is my favourite World Cup event of the whole season. Everybody is there. Later on there is always someone who skips one weekend or another . Not everybody takes part in Tour de ski. But here everyone shows up.
