IBU announces an official partnership with the Olympic Channel.  The article says this is about Target 2026, but offers little details on what will be shown.

 

 

I read it as docs, interviews, features etc.

That was my view of it as well.  I was hoping that they would announce IBU Cup races to be streamed here.

Some sad news, the Minnesota National Guard had a helicopter crash this past week.  One of those that died, Sgt. Kort Miller Plantenberg, was a member of the Minnesota NG Biathlon team.  Condolences to all of those who died and their friends and family.

NORAM #2 is this weekend in West Yellowstone, MT.  

 

14 Dec - Sprint

15 Dec - Pursuit

 

 

 

Also the Alpencup had their first events this past weekend.

 

7 Dec - Sprint

Men - Top 7 places were all German athletes.  Also a mix of Ukraine, Austria, Swiss, Belarus and Korean.  Roman Rees was scheduled to race but did not.  Justus Strelow (1996) went 0-1 to win with a time of 24:27.8, 5.2 seconds better than Dominic Schmuck (1996) who went 1-1.  

Junior Men - Won by Niklas Hartweg of Switzerland (2000) with a 0-0, 24:46.  There were 77 in the Junior race.  

Women - A little more diverse crowd at the top, but Stefanie Scherer of Germany (1996) won the race with a 0-1 22:16.8 43.2 seconds faster than Flurina Volken of Switzerland.  There was a Mongolian athlete in the race.  

Junior Women - Won by Amy Baserga (2000) of Switzerland with a 0-0 22:43.8.  She was 45.1 seconds ahead of Anastasia Raskazova of the Ukraine.  

 

8 Dec - Super Individual - looked like a Super Sprint

Men - Justin Strelow and Dominic Schmuck took the top two places with a 19:44 and 20:11.  Both missed one shot total.  The US was in the races and Paul Schommer was third with Max Durtschi 4th.  Both missed 2 shots.

Junior Men - Niklas Hartweg won again by 14.7 second over Max Barchewitz of Germany.  Both missed two shots.    

Women - Stefanie Scherer won again with a 30.7 lead over countrywoman Sophia Schneider of Germany.  Scherer had a 16:34 over the 5k course with 20 shots, she only missed 2.  

Junior Women - Juilane Fruhwirt of Germany who had two misses and had a time of 16:45.  She was 34 seconds ahead of Franziska Pfneur also of Germany.

just to clarify, when you´ll order one, look at the ending of the word Biathlete. so in this case Biatlonista / Biatlonistka

 

Biatlonista is for boys

Biatlonistka is for girls

    • At the beginning, she was considering a helicopter transfer within that day as 3 companies offered her that option. But later, she did not give a clear answer but said that she will compete PGS. Some information still seem to be a bit unclear, but some information does not want to released to public. I am not so sure. But what actually happens, we have to wait for that certain day 
    • Yes, they also wrote about It months ago on the olympics website: https://www.olympics.com/en/news/ester-ledecka-chooses-snowboard-over-alpine-downhill-milano-cortina-2026
    • Not really. Maybe you heard it wrong. She decided to give up downhill and will focus on snowboarding parallel Giant slalom. After that, she should participate in Super G and Team Combined.    Btw, maybe, but really maybe, she may take part in one downhill training which is a condition in order to participate in downhill race. Why am saying that is the fact that if the downhill will be postponed to another day due to weather conditions, she would go for the downhill race as well. 
    • Actually it was announced some time ago she will do the Snowboarding PGS on Day 2 and then the Alpine Super-G on Day 6 (+ still in discussion process the start in the Alpine Combined Teams on Day 4)
