Nope. 
 

If you’re looking results they’ll be available on the IBSF website.

Although the season is basically over (for the top athletes anyway), it is interesting to see as many as 41 sleds entered for Igls this week. Could be the biggest event in a while.

It really sucks that men’s skeleton quotas were cut to 25, because men’s skeleton probably has the greatest diversity in terms of competing and competitive countries at the moment.

The greatest, compared to what? :p 

 

I mean, there's like 4,5 significantly competitive countries at the top level...

It’s a sport that gives everyone a chance.  Luge is great, but the only way you are going to get to the top is to go to school in the same town as a track & start at age 10.  Pretty much everyone in skeleton converted from some other sport when they were already an adult.

The only other discipline is the women's skeleton and even that is more diverse in terms of nations having competitive sliders :p 

 

Podiums this season (italic means at least one win):

 

Men

LAT
RUS
GER
GBR
KOR
AUT

 

Women

AUT
RUS
GER
NED
CZE
LAT
CAN

 

With the women also having Belgium, Italy, Great Britain and USA being somewhat close to a podium position at some point during the season.

 

Just to clarify: I'm not disagreeing with you finding it a shame the quotas have been cut, quota cuts almost always suck :p

      it was all expected, tbh fencing has now become a truly global sport if there's a sport that deserves to increase its olympic quota places (both in the team and individual events), that's fencing ioc can't ignore the elephant in the room

      Overall, all of Old Europe is poorly here: France - 0 medals, Germany - 0 medals, Italy - 1 bronze, Hungary - 1 bronze. For many years the fencing authorities' policy has been to give greater support to Asia and other new emergent countries: Africa, Turkey, Uzbekistan, Georgia, etc., and perhaps that's where Europe's crisis? Additionally Russia has returned and is immediately very strong.

      How are they going to decide who the 18 teams are for next year's championship? I see world 'C' events on the calendar already so some decisions have probably already been made.

      qualified to both of Today's Gold Medal games    and beat  in both tournaments in their way through to the final    the disappointing campaign of the young  sabre continues (even if the boys are now playing for bronze against )
