Why is (for example) the M4- called 'coxless four', and M4x called 'quadruple sculls', even though the quadruple sculls also is coxless? :p 

Because there were other competitions in which we had, for example, a 2+ and a 4+ (like the Abbagnale brothers and Di Capua :cheer:) which were not sculls

very, very disappointing results for Italy...:facepalm:

 

we lost 1 Gold (M4X) and 1 Silver (M4-) medal from last year in the space of less than half an hour...and earlier we saw the epic fail of our Golden Pair from 2017...

 

we might have got even more Olympic quota than expected, but if it wasn't for the usual suspects (LM2X), we wouldn't get a single medal in the Olympic classes...

 

definitely not a good way to enter the Olympic Games next year...:cry::nopompom:

Absolutely ridiculous results so far. Ireland, Poland and the Netherlands are suddenly powerhouses. Meanwhile the powerhouses Great Britain and Germany barely win any medals.

The Netherlands have 5 medals in olympic events after the first day, more than Germany, GB, China and the US combined. No other nation has more than 3 medals. The Netherlands are making a complete mockery of this sport.

Attachment is the great fabricator of illusions; reality can be obtained only by someone who is detached.
