Yo! Time for a snowboarding poll, dudes.

#TeamMoura-heywoodu

Voting in this one is open now.

Snowboard, men's Halfpipe...even if Shaun White is a living legend, he didn't deserve at least 2 of his 3 Olympic gold medals...and in any case, the most outstanding single performance ever at the OGs, is surely :SUI Iouri Podlatchikov's effort in Sochi.

therefore the Swiss is my pick.

 

Snowboard, women's Halfpipe...no brainer...:USA Chloe Kim is way above the rest of the field in this game.

 

Snowboard, men's Snowboardcross...here I go with :FRA Pierre Vaultier, winning twice, as a favourite and also as a (deluxe) outsider.

 

Snowboard, women's Snowboardcross...maybe I'm biased in this case, but nobody has ever won showing the same superiority as :ITA Michela Moioli in 2018.

the Italian is my pick, of course.

    • Right now  Spulber and  Ipcioglu are even on points but Ipcioglu is ranked ahead by one position. If Spulber moves ahead they no longer need a D.2 quota, Turkey only gets a D.2 quota (drop to one) and then continental cup ranking would determine the final quota. Unless the FIS does something strange like they briefly did in September and give a country 2 quotas in D.2.
    • Just realized that there are no 50km or Relay races in the World Cup season leading up to the Olympics, and the 50k is only contested once in March in Norway.  (I'm new to following Cross-Country skiing, but I would have thought athletes would have had some 'warm-up' competitions before the Olympics during the season. Also, I could be wrong...but I didn't see these events in the WC schedule.)

    • 20 nations are qualified on the men's side right now (even without China). Canada is only in bc Boyd-Clowes has resumed his career.   There is no nation count limit indeed, I only counted the qualified athletes' nations (20 for men, 16 for women).
    • Well, half of this is not true.There is no minimum nation count - even less nations were expected by FIS ski jumping higher-ups than there are qualified now. The last 4 quotas for men are for NOCs with one or none athletes qualified. So we should complete 3 super teams and get China with one ski jumper in the men's individual competitions.

    • I think it depends on the sport.    On one hand, I admire the meritocracy of trials for Dutch speed skating or US athletics... but I don't think it's necessarily a recipe for optimal results forcing athletes to run the gauntlet at incredibly competitive trials, then turn around and try to peak again in short order at the Olympics.  It's something Canada does for our curling teams, and I think it's been a big part of the reason we've underperformed internationally more than one would expect. The successes we've had I feel are largely in spite of the qualification system, not because of it. Granted curling is a much different sport, but in it's case and it were up to me, I'd do like Sweden or GB, select the team the prior season then let them properly plan their seasons around the Olympics and preparing properly... rather than needing to peak for trials, and pouring whomever survives onto a plane for the Olympics a few weeks later For speedskating, I like the Canadian system. It's a mix of international results and trials. The medal contenders largely have their spots sewn up, so trials are a none-issue... and the rest are mostly just making up the numbers, so a heavier weighting on trials results is fair enough as no one else in that situation has done enough to solidify their position prior, so might as well play the hot hand. The Dutch having such incredible depth would obviously need to set the pre-qualification bar higher, but I don't think it would hurt them. But then again, their entire system is build around performance on demand... and that's produced great results, even if a few Ted-Jan Bloeman's wash out along the way
    • Volleyball World are doing a countdown to the new year with a list of the best players for 2025.    Here is the men's top 10 with two places to go: (which are Michieletto and Aleks Nikolov)   1. ??? 2. ??? 3.  Simone Giannelli 4.  Jakub Kochanowski 5.  /  Wilfredo Leon   6.  Simeon Nikolov 7.  Fabio Balaso 8.  Aleks Grozdanov 9.  Jan Kozamernik 10.  Patrik Indra  
    • After 2006, Fabris was never as so good again... But Fabris also never had such successes outside the 2006 Olympics than the current Ghiotto...
