New season streams are posted for the weekend if you need to get your schedule organised.  :cheer:

 

Remember, it's a double bill from Pyeongchang :KOR on Saturday and Sunday this weekend, then a single race from :CHN next weekend. No bobsleigh yet, so I guess they will get double races with no skeleton later in the season.   

 

There were two Asian Cup races on the Pyeongchang track last weekend, and another scheduled for tomorrow, so no excuses for poor performance, everybody should be used to it by now.  :teacher:

Not often that people here congratulate sports governing bodies, but the IBSF have really done a good thing for skeleton this month.  Three Asian Cup races and then three World Cup races all in Asia have really brought out all the athletes - 38 in the women's race and 34 in the men's today, great start to the Olympic qualifying campaign.

    • Imagine being the UEFA/FIFA official tasked with burning his hands on this never-ending fire     Go for a home match without fans for both Romania and Kosovo and then get on with life.
    • Dutch Winter Olympics is all about speedskating and shorttrack.    In shorttrack we have a problem since Suzanne Schulting (3 times Olympic Champion) broke her ankle this year. After since it looks like she concentrates on speedskating on the long track. But in that sport she is not really that good. For shorttrack we have medal chances for Xandra Velzeboer on the 500 meters and Jens van 't Wout on the men's distances, although Danjinou from Canada is in a league of his own.   In speedskating we have several medal chances, but I'm expecting not that much gold, considering Jordan Stolz (500/1000/1500) and Davide Ghiotto (5000/10000) winning the gold medals on the classic distances almost for sure. There will be some silver and bronze on the men's side however (Patrick Roest (5000), Kjeld Nuis (1500), Tim Prins (1000) and maybe Jenning de Boo (500)).   On the women's side there is Miho Takagi (1000/1500) and Ragne Wiklund (3000/5000) and the Canadian women. But also chances for Dutch gold with Jutta Leerdam (1000), Joy Beune (1500/3000), Marijke Groenewoud (mass/3000) and Merel Conijn (5000). Unless Leerdam will continue travelling with Jake Paul and focus on her boyfriend's stupid influence-career more than on her own career.    2 medals in short track, 10 medals in speedskating, but not many golden!
    • Yes, you're right. But the point is that the private sporting agency supersedes national law on this subject. 
    • It was assistent coach and former player Adam Szalai. He was brought to the locker room to rest up a bit, and then was taken away by ambulance, but without much haste: other than being somewhat groggy, it seems like he was getting better.

    • Looks like the person has been taken away, hopefully in relatively ok condition, and we're continuing the match.
    • nice (curious) description of what happened  
    • no, since Vlhova is still out, there were 2 girls tied for 7th in the start list, so the first group was expanded to 8 just for Today (and Miki was "unlucky" and grabbed the bib no.8)
    • Things have gone horribly wrong in the Netherlands - Hungary match. Someone from the Hungarian dugout started shaking and becoming very unwell, CPR has been or is being performed and the match has been suspended for a while now. No idea yet who it is (player, staff, no idea).
