sorry bud,Ceh planned to compete here aswell before pulling out at the last minute,your view is just not supported by.....litereally just about any elite male discus thrower,[and plenty of elite female throwers,Valarie competing at Ramona and sayng that she plans on coming back fully legitimizes this for them]except maybe stahl who congratulated Mykolas last year anyway despite his ex coach throwing a fit.so even he clearly doesn't care all that much,Also mykolas threw over 70 meters three times in europe last year,everybody else not being able to do it is not his problem. 

The fact that he threw only 3 times over 70m tells you everything you need to know about Ramona. It's pure wind doping and you know it. It doesn't matter who competes there or not, the rules should be stricter when it comes to outside sources like the wind. If say 100m sprinters had such help they would run close to 9s. Those records wouldn't stand, but somehow they're still allowed in field events. If these records had any legitimacy the athletes would be throwing close to that mark regularly, yet they do not. That's my problem, I have no problems with athletes who go there to compete.

3 times end result over 70 he had more 70 meter throws in all the series over the year i'm sure.''wind doping'' sorry my eyes rolled into the back of my scull,i will take wind doping over gdr era doping and those results remaining at the top of best time lists every time.wind regulation as far as discus goes would be a ridicoulous concept and would never work,and anyway discus throwers have chased wind FOREVER,this is not a new concept ramona is just the  new  place for it,if no one cared about it then,no one should care about it now that the internet exists.I find ramona to be an amazing invention,world athletics clearly loves it and i'm honest to god REALLY not concerned with ''fairness'' for  yapping  annoying sprinters when they already get all the attention...most of the time for nothing,the throwers deserve something for themselves and Ramona is that something.

According to Ståhls new coach, Ståhl has only the interest practicing and competing with the focus to performance in the important arena competitions. But he has as you say never said anything negative about the performances in these events. However I would have liked to see him and Ceh there too (Ståhl might not be good enough for 74 now in any conditions but definitely a few years ago), for fun, i am still not thinking these are the best discus throws ever. But the level in the discos throw has increased the last season so would by be surprised with more 70+ throws than Regular this season. But not like this.

you guys really need to control your throwing experts or whatever,first weinstein and his little embarrasing meltdown last year,now a sport journalist[wernneholm] actually compares this record to pissing your pants,can i now assume he pissed HIS OWN PANTS when he saw the result ?anyway he's apparently very happy that Stahl wasn't present which i mean sour grapes galore,him being upset over Valerie too is even more pathetic given those above her are gdr era results,apparentlly he thinks those mean more than a throw in ramona.i'm now hoping Mykolas throws as many over 70 meter throws in the diamond leagues as possible so this moron can cry some more.

Yep, seems like also the Dutch wanted to get in on this miracle venue festival and rightly so, don't let the chance go for some extra meters
