Well I’m both an avid photographer and writer, so I’ll try to meet your expectations. I’ll be at the venue for both days of C1.

 

also I really don´t see who else would beat Casey Eichfeld in your internal qualifiers for the spot of :USA in C1. He´ll surely be there.

 

I do believe USA team will consist of Eichfeld C1 M, Michal Smolen K1 M and after what I saw last weeks I start to have higher and higher faith for the young prodigy Evy Leibfarth to represent USA in both female events

Well Zack Lokken has been pretty well on the men’s C1. He’s made sure to give himself a good shot going into the US Olympic Trials. It will be him or Casey should we get the quota.

Live update from the US ticket live sale rush: It’s hell and nothing works.

 

I’m so glad I got some of my tickets in the first round.

I wanted to apply for them in the first, but my father (the one paying for the trip as a high school graduation and 18th birthday present) hates all the artistic, judged, and Equestrian sports. However, I’m going to attempt to get some cross country tickets this round because I can talk him into those (He’ll just be happy that we got tickets if we got any)

I can agree that some of them are no bueno, but I’m ok with the way Gymnastics, and Equestrian are judged. There is definitely room for improvement. That’s why I’m a huge fan of sport Climbing’s inclusion, because it’s not subjective, and it’s completely different from anything else on the program.

Ok tickets we’re selling out so my dad completely caved. It looks like we may be seeing Dressage. I’ll update in a bit

    • Slovakia is technically returning through Czechia :)
    • We've been told that during the past 3 tournaments as well. There won't be many opportunities left. While I obviously believe they can do something big this year, it will be crucial not to screw up the quarterfinal game from the very beginning.
    • Italy will boycott the Azeri stage for protest against the international federation.
    • Likely for Tannheimer, quite unlikely for Galmace Paulin. She's far from being assured to even start in the WC before turning 20. Basically she'd have to get a spot this season, which could actually happen if she takes the extra-ticket at the JWCH. Anyway I don't see her making her way to gold in Oslo. Tänglander has a few seasons to do it, we'll see.       Quite surprisingly so, indeed. Barring her horrendous finish Richard would have made it 2 in one go. We should have some more names in the list in 2025.
    • There are some of Slovakia's finest young squads at the World Juniors in recent years
    • Alpine skiing also we have a lot of problems: the men's team is very weak and has been winning a few podiums a season for several years and the our best skier- Dominik Paris is 35. We still have a strong women's team but 3 of the 4 leaders are over 30 (Goggia, Brignone, Curtoni) and Bassino is 28. Another 2 years and we will have the same problem as the men's. There is basically no cross-country skiing without Pellegrino for many years, biathlon is based on 2 individuals with one of them has a 35 years. Vittozzi's injury was enough and we haven`t a single podium this season after 3 stages of the World Cup. As for 1 year to the home games the situation isn`t optimistic.
    • Hail to the Reds... Commanders. First time since 1991 Washington QB has thrown 5 TD passes in a game (which isn't all that improbable in the modern game alas Dan Snyder...)    
    • Italy is much better in alpine skiing, in The end all Nations have a Limited Talent Pool. Norway is far better than Sweden/Finland in Cross-Country skiing, alpine skiing and Biathlon, but Sweden/Finland are far better in ice Hockey.  Great Britain wins far more medals than Germany At Summer olympics, but GB is also inexistant in Winter Sports and Most popular Team Sports (Volleyball, Handball, Basketball, Ich Hockey).  
    • Thanks, great stat! Tannheimer wont turn 20 until August 2025, so she has The whole Season To Join Kristiansen and Neuner. Too Bad that she was ill this week. I think Galmace Paulin and Tänglander could also do it. I think Grotian (born 2004) is The First female Biathlete born after 1999 To make a World Cup Podium. On The Mens side multiple Athletes (Perrot, Giacomel, Uldal) have already done it.   E. Öberg was 22 and a half when she First won.  Dahlmeier was 21 and a half.   Edit: Grotian only narrowly missed The Podium in The Individual at The 2024 World Championships when she was still  19 year old.
