As some votes are coming in, I see a lot of similarities between Breakthrough of the Year and Youth Athlete, as I predicted that could be some confusion in these categories. I think the best solution right now would be to make the nominees in Youth Athlete ineligible in Breakthrough, and maybe rethink these categories next year :mumble:

I think we can just get rid of the Breakthrough category...we already have enough of them (and some are quite complicated to be filled properly -meanwhile some others would need more than just 6 option, I fear).

 

for next year, instead of "best doubles or pair", I'd enlarge the category to "best mixed pair/team" (leaving the same gender doubles to the same gender team category), so not to have to force a (potentially) mixed team in the men or women's categories.

I won't change it this year of course, but next year we really should rethink those categories so that there isn't much confusion among voters.

A friendly reminder that the voting for the first stage will end tomorrow. I can do a little extension to Saturday if needed - although I think people will be more worried about New Year's :p I'm tagging some names (that I could remember) that might have some interest in voting, I hope more people will join this event (only 11 voters so far).
 

 

I totally understand if people can't vote because this isn't the best time, but I hope we can count with more members in the second stage (which will determine the winners) since it will be much easier to vote. I'm updating the voters list here.

@vinipereira I might take your offer on the first stage extension. My votes will likely be submitted late night on 30th Pacific Coast Time :d

    • She has competed for Brazil some 20 days ago...OAsport writers must have taken long holidays and needed more time than usual for their "copy, paste and add a clickbait title/intro" article 
    • it looks like  will have soon another biathlon member in their ranks    born Gaia Brunello is going to switch to her mom's native Land...good luck to her!   p.s. just don't give a f*ck to the clickbaiting comparison to Braathen in the title of the article    https://www.oasport.it/2025/01/anche-litalia-ha-la-sua-braathen-gaia-brunello-sceglie-il-brasile-nel-biathlon/
    • my picks...   all the home teams except for the Vikings winning in LA
    • my problem isn't that*...it's that I just can't stand the test match format    I'd rather watch T20 or ODI...I don't like even the T10 format   *I just discovered that we can watch the 7+ ott also here in Italy, just need a good  VPN and a bit of patience to register to their portal (it's completely free, and the app on the amazon firestick works way better than the regular website on my PC)    for those who like to dare, there's a chance to subscribe to Kayo Sports, too, but I didn't take the risk yet...you know...   meanwhile, for those who are more into "a certain kind of stuff"  there's always the magical app Sportsfire (it works basically only on the amazon firestick, though)...and you have a whole world at your feet  (when it worls )
    • Meanwhile, a bit of a request for help: I have been trying, but if anyone can find the qualification rules for the world championships in Trondheim, specifically the requirements to be allowed to start in all races, that'd be great, I can't find it anywhere yet..   Edit: of course I found it right after asking for help     Only remaining question is: does 'current' mean what at that moment is the current list (the 6th FIS points list) or the one that is used for the eligibility for the WSC 2025 as listed on the 'Dates of the lists' document (5th FIS points list)?    
    • Happy New Year to you as well!   So, we got back from Oberwiesenthal Sunday night, after an adventurous drive in the snow and a long road back home. It went well there: the classic sprint on Saturday resulted in 314 points, which improved her own position towards the team sprint in the world championships (being in the team sprint is potentially very important towards the Olympics). She beat her main rival by a whopping 11 seconds, so that was awesome.   20k mass start classic on Sunday wasn't that good: in the first of six laps, some athletes around her fell, one of them hit her left foot (the one that got injured in the accident 3 years ago) and that resulted in quite some pain. I was waiting with my drinks in the coaching area, but after the field passed there in lap two, she didn't appear, so I knew something was up. Walked back and saw her walking towards me, then she explained what had happened. The pain after being hit in the foot was too much to keep going for 16km, especially in a race that wouldn't count for the Olympic ranking anyway and was only meant for 'racing rhythm', continueing could do more damage than good.   That's a shame, but no problem, the sprint went well and that was WAY more important. Also: the day before the race we went to the Polish wax cabin to ask for help, because she does always need someone to wax her skis and 'Team' Brazil isn't really an option. The Polish very gladly helped (and were paid with a nice 12-pack of beer we brought for that occassion) and the skis were really good, so that was fantastic. Even better: after the mass start, and explaining why being hit in the foot was such a problem and so on, the wax guy - without us even asking - offered to also help at the world championships, and invited her for a training camp with the team in the summer     December had gone very well as well, right now (with still this entire season and half of next season to go) she is leading the Brazilian Olympic ranking by a nice margin. Of course many races to come for everyone, but so far, so good!   Next option is 17-19 January, FESA Cup in Falcade. Financially it's a bit tough, since that is yet another 2300km with the rental car (with which we already did 1600 now, and we only have 2000 on the contract, so every km outside of it costs 20 cents), plus another accomodation needed. We're looking into the options, because Falcade has a classic sprint AND a 10k freestyle, which is the absolute perfect combination considering those are the things that count for the Olympic ranking. We're trying to scrape enough together, so...we'll keep you updated

    • Heraskevyvh is very good in this season. He did worse last season. Our team is unfortunately doing much worse now.    In luge, unfortunately, it`s difficult to break the dominance of Germany, Austria and Latvia. The USA has also made a lot of progress. I have also read that Russia may return under a neutral banner, so I don`t think we will win a medal in Cortina 2026. The only hope is that we will use our knowledge of the new track in Cortina and then maybe we will win a one medal, maybe in the women's doubles. Unfortunately, we don`t have a star like Armin Zoeggeler as before.
