Sorry but this is the stupidest idea I’ve ever heard… putting in 3x3 hockey (which doesn’t even have its own World Championships or anything like that) over telemark skiing, ice cross, and freeride skiing… :sick:

 

This is coming from a big fan of hockey. Curious as to what @hckošice @phelps @Epic Failure @copravolley@Topicmaster1010 think though?

Shhhhhhhhhhhh.... 

Gold medal for Canada

It would be a complete disaster quotas wise. The winter games already have too small of an athlete quota for the current program.

We have SkiMo at Olympic? We have only the circus, with the sprint.

Give us the REAL SkiMo, thanks.

well, that's true, but at least we have something...hopefully in 2030 they will extend the schedule to the classic race (I doubt they will ever make the vertical race Olympic), instead of adding new senseless leisure time activities :bones:

I'm pretty sure that the only purpose for UCI to created Snowbike Events was to get in the Winter Olympics

And considering next winter Olympics are in France, David Lappartient is president of both UCI and french NOC and IOC candidate..... I think it's a done deal.

And considering Lappartient is basically known as having 'Conflict of Interest' as his middle name....yeah.

Plus losing one of the classic winter sports in Nordic combined would be yet another disaster. Like it's not going downhill faster than Marco Odermatt already.

Is it confirmed or are FIS and other stakeholders just in talks???

Nordic Combined isnt a big loss. A widely umpopular sport consisting of mixing more popular sports that doesnt really hook anyone.

 

I rather had his quotas go to SkiMo or Cyclocross, to be completely honest

I genuinely wonder if ski mountaineering is honestly more popular in terms of audience. Cyclocross quite certainly isn't :p  Although I believe the season is about to start, so Belgian TV will be busy making it look big again :d

Something that bothers me about 3x3 hockey as a new discipline is that it's a lot more similar to the "main" version of the sport than 3x3 basketball or beach volleyball.

 

Heck, it's so similar that it's used as a tie breaker regularly in regular hockey!

 

From a Canadian standpoint it would basically be who are the best overtime players and goallies who didn't make the A team on both the men's and women's side (on the women's side it would probably straight up just be the B team)

      Exactly. They should be using a the offensive section of one side of the rink and less players, with the option of having an outdoor venue. Otherwise it looks like we turned the rink around and are playing the game sideways

      I am really sorry to announce this, but I am forced to pull of from this edition.   I am sadly now too busy with outside life currently (mainly fresh new job which is consuming major part of my daily time), that I do not have time to visit and participate in the forum as much as I would wish, did not have time to even listening the songs at least once.   I knew this will happen when I was considering my participation, sadly, it appeared to be true.   Sorry for that @Cinnamon Bun one more time. I was really looking forward for your edition   It is definitely not a farewell, rather a temporary hiatus until my free-time will be more open and friendly, sadly, it is not going to be sooner than next year for sure.     Anyway, when I will have some time i will try to watch a take a look on the thread and contest.   Wish you all good luck and happy contest.

      The Red Wings' maverick approach of having practically no competent defenders or goalies has started about as well as you would imagine that it would.   Looks like it could be a long season....

      0-0 in Tashkent is not a bad result considering Iran played the entire second half with 10 men  but Iran got robbed of a penalty in 94th minute. it was clear handball to me, the ref called it but then the VAR room made him change his originally (correct) decision     for some reasons we have to play our next home match against Qatar in neutral venue (UAE) on Tuesday.  a win there will put Iran in a very good position to qualify. I'm still confident they can get the 3pts against the so-called Asian Champion.   and looking at other results, S-Korea scored a big win in Jordan (they got eliminated by the same team at the Asian Cup) and Japan also beat KSA in KSA. I think JPN/KOR are safe to qualify as usual. it's between Australia and KSA in Group C and Iraq/Jordan in Group B
