So you can go there and make some pictures. :d Or interviews since you like to contact the athletes. :p

I guess I will either be at home or at an event with the power of 450-500 horses per participant :p 

 

But who knows, if for some reason I decide to visit my first equestrian event ever, I'll take some pictures :d

...and for the first time since 1968 there is no Ian Millar (Captain Canada) in jumping team. :cry: At least Amy Millar (his daughter) and Yann Candele (my second favourite Canadian) are there, but that is hardly a consolation. :cry:

Lol, same time. His best horse got injured and looks like that's the reason why no Captain Canada this time.

Sadly no Ian Millar, but it will be some consolation to him that his daughter Amy will make her Olympic debut. Very female heavy team (8 women, 2 men).

British eventing team member Izzy Taylor had to withdraw after her horse got injured. Two-time Olympian Pippa Funnell is the replacement with Billy The Biz.

Dorothee Schneider (Showtime)

Isabell Werth (Weihegold)

Pretty much expected selections, but i would have seleced Ehning as reserve instead of Meredith.

    • What are the odds WTA/ITF has Kostyuk vs Potapova AO R1 just to see if the hand shake happens? 
    • Malinin  opted for the 4-Axel in his Short Program, but faltered, landing him in 3rd thus far (and only 0.05 away from 4th!).  Surely he has the tools to rise back up in the Free Program.  (Also, perhaps this will serve to show him that he is in fact beatable.)
    • I think they incorrectly translated Ukrainian word "nahorody" - it is not a full synonym of "medal". Its cocrrect translation is "award". Meanwhile russian tennis playes switched for Potapova ->  Rakhimova ->   
    • Ukrainian diver Lyskun switches allegiance to Russia, loses all medals | Olympics News | Al Jazeera   'loses all medals'   I would assume Al Jazeera could have been a bit clearer and mention this would presumably only be national medals. I mean, it's not like the Ukrainian federation, or any single federation for that matter, has the power to strip her of her world and European championships medals I hope (not for her sake, but because that would be a super weird precedent)  
    • That's what I'd plan as well (except for MelFest), but I also know I am hypocritical enough to still want to watch the show and have a fun evening  
    • Confirmation about the broadcasting rights.   If I'm reading it right, for most of Europe it will now be exclusive to Discovery/Eurosport or whatever brand they use.     For outside Europe, it's on YouTube. For Planet VPN....well, let us know if you find out.   fil-taker-list-25-26-winterberg-1.pdf   Also, should have mentioned above that the Nations Cup races today are just over one leg, whereas there are two runs in each of the World Cup races.  
    • Got our first competition of the season coming up in Solitude, Utah  this weekend.  Live on Discovery Plus etc, plus also YouTube and the Olympic Channel.  If you are new to the sport, the sprint races on Saturday will be the format you'll find easy to understand.     ISMF   ISMF Skimo - YouTube    
    • Surely. Her first coach now works in russia (and grandma lives in russia according to Sereda). They were in contact and despite of full funding from  the girl decided to become the star of russian propaganda.  As I saw in X: "It took the Russians four years of war to find a relatively well-known sports personality to carry out such a propaganda operation."
    • @Josh skimo mixed relay is on Saturday, not Sunday, FYI
    • ... this week, time depending.   Today (Dec 5) 4:00pm: Swimming US Open - Finals 9:00pm: Freestyle Skiing WC Big Air Beijing  9:30pm: Snowboard WC Parallel Giant Slalom Mylin   Dec 6 2:00am: Snowboard WC Big Air Beijing 6:45am: Freestyle Skiing WC Aerials Ruka 4:00pm: Swimming US Open - Finals 9:30pm: Snowboard WC Parallel Giant Slalom Mylin   Dec 7 7:30am: Freestyle Skiing WC Moguls Ruka 9:45am: Ski Mountaineering WC Soltitude Mixed Relay   Dec 8 6:30am: Freestyle Skiing WC Moguls Ruka   Dec 9   Dec 10   Dec 11 4:45am: Ski Cross WC Val Thorens 7:00pm: Snowboard Halfpipe WC Secret Garden   Bills, Warriors, and Canucks (have a headache, can't be bothered to put it in...)   No Elite 16 beach volleyball, weak field and most of the top teams have shut down their seasons already. No Snow League Freeski Finals, Heerenveen Speed Skating WC, Alpine Skiing WC either.
