It doesn’t get used very often for Worlds in CC or Biathlon  We sometimes see it when there is no snow elsewhere, or when other courses are rebuilding.

 

From what I can find, the course has only been used a few times starting in 2017/2018 for an IBU Cup.  Last year the final two races were held there, and the IBU Cup is scheduled to be there each season until at least the 2021/2022 season.

 

I put together a spreadsheet of every event from 1980/1981 through the present that I could find.  There are some interesting locales.  If anyone cares, I have attached it.  This does not include Nation specific events, such as Russian or Norway events.  I have also excluded the NORAM events in the US and Canada. Enjoy.

Definitely have seen it used for CC, though.  Teams like to train there because there are lots of different tracks, which you don’t get on every course.

Bariloche and Portillo definitely had more South American championships (but no idea about the exact years)

Not gonna lie, I read it as 'cartoon rifle' the first two times and tried to figure out what is so special about this black rifle to make it cartoon-ish

That is one badass rifle.

Bet it breaks really easily if you fall on it.

Slovakia uses 4F wear? For biathlon only or for the Olympics too? I don't remember your Olympians in that.
