they will get more...tomorrow they have another gold already in their pocket with the women's Boulder (always thanks to Janja :hearts:) and they could also get medals in both the men's Boulder and Lead (actually, it's highly likely they get a medal in the men's Lead)...

 

p.s. sorry for all the Hungarian friends, but I fear the men's Triathlon is going to be a French clean sweep...:facepalm:

They know what they are doing, IOC loves "extreme". Next they will put a couple of spikes below them and create some artificial rain and wind. The possibilities are endless. Call it "Extreme Sport Climbing" and you got two more gold medals for your discipline at the Summer Games.  

Although the average urban viewer won't have a clue whether or not a boulder is technically hard :p

the average urban viewer might like the speed event, with its 5-sec races...surely not lead and/or boulder competitions with their 2-hour sessions...;)

there literally zero chance for slovakia to win gold at this, my dear sir. even winning any medal is unlikely, not a single of our eventual strong sports, the only chance is the M K4-500, but as we had the opportunity to see at the worlds last week, it is far from being any safe, we finished 4th a whole second behind the bronze of this season new powerhouse of the discipline Ukraine

    • Looking at last season's 1st World Cup, it's worse for now and it should be the other way around. Bosa out of shape, Trentini weak. Both will drop to a lower group. It's similar to skeleton, i.e. regression instead of progress. I hope this doesn't mean Ghiotto is also in weaker form, because it could end up with 0 podiums this weekend.
    • In general, our picture for a little over 1 year until the home games looks like this:     - the women's sector is still based on one Lollo, who is 3 years older than 2022, - the women's and men's sprint sector is based on one Bosa and possibly the young Pergher (0% possobility for medal in 2026), - Ghiotto has made a lot of progress and that is a big plus. He could result to give our even 3 medals, including 1/2 gold. Our team's performance also depends to a large extent on Ghiotto's form, - the rest of the men's team is basically unchanged. There is Giovannoni in the mass start, there is Malfatti in the longer distances, but they are not competitors on the podium of a major event.   I will repeat myself: if Ghiotto continues to make such progress, we will probably win 3 medals, 2 of which gold and it will be a success. If something doesn`t work out, an injury, illness, etc. (we know from Vitozzi that this can happen to anyone), then it could be very bad. By the way, this also applies to other sports: the above-mentioned Vitozzi in biathlon, Goggia in downhill, Brignone in giant slalom, etc.
    • With the World Cup season in most of the winter sports about to begin and qualification in some sports already underway, I think it's about time for this thread.    Template    ...

    • Today is a day without Italians in the leads positions. I`m worried that they are not trying to revive this our sprint. There is only one Bosa and he is old. Pergher is young but she is also only one. It is a pity. After the Olympics they will probably 100% give up on the entire sprint. Our medal bag in Cortina will depend 90% on Ghiotto, just like it did on Fabris in Turin 2006. If Ghiotto will be in goodshape, he can even win 2 individual golds + a team medal. If not, it will be a flop. Apart from him, only Lollobrigida can compete in the mass start and possibly Giovannini in the men's mass start.
    • Yup, actually they have just some juniors pairs in the dance event 
    • In bed with the flu and few hours of sleep, but at least the insomnia will let me watch the first World Cup stage
