There is a huge difference, really. Shooting in biathlon is much more appealing compared to sport shooting and modern pentathlon. It's physical - you can see the bullets hitting targets (in slow motio

With the southern hemisphere season and the summer biathlon season coming up, I'd say it's time to start using this thread instead of the (excellent) off-season thread? :p

Nope, sorry (I'd keep an eye on AUS Biathlon's Facebook page). I can ask around for more info on the Egyptian, if I can't find it now I'll try when I see the Australian team in the winter season :p

A few interesting tidbits out of Russia.

 

Loginov has not signed a contract with the Russia Federation yet.  It appears that he wants more than they will pay him.  Now I can not see him missing the season, and it will get done, but it will be interesting to see how this ends up.

 

One of the first Rollerski races has been held in Barnaul, Russia.  A write-up is here.

I found a list of semi-IBU sanctioned rollerski events:

 

31 July-3 Aug - Sandnes, Norway - Blink Skifestivalen  The Rollerski Biathlon races are on 2 and 3 Aug.

11 Aug - Wiesbaden, Germany 

31 Aug - 1 Sept - Annecy, France - Martin Fourcade Nordic Festival

 

New Zealand Biathlon team getting some work in, while the snow is coming down in their home country.  Pictures like this make me jealous.  It will be about high 90s F/ High 30s C for me today!  Also good to see the NZ team working towards the Oceanic Championships.  

 

I have not been able to find any results from the Victorian Biathlon Championships.  Just that their program was a Short Individual as well as a Sprint.

      One of the best things Mariani could have done was to kick Romei out of the national team two years ago; her percentages are declining dramatically.

      Kind of weird to see federations announcing their speed skating teams; the ISU has not confirmed team sizes yet. I think today is the deadline for submissions and it is possible for the ISU to reduce some of the numbers.

      Can see it both ways.  Normally Curling Teams play as a Four and it is usually best to keep the same Four together.  BUT  won Gold with a team put together by the Federation, not as an organic four so.....     Also, the family thing, but curling is a village/small town sport, so everyone is always more or less related to each other, or neighbours, or friends from school etc etc.
