This is just a one time adventure no worries, in 4 years we will have the mixed doubles instead. The pattern is set up. I know the IOCs, not going to fool me 

Wouldn’t a mixed 4 Large Hil make sense. To match the mixed normal hill.

Is cancelling a competition round due to weather urban, youthful and gender neutral?

I really don't understand why all the ski jumping eventshave to be held in the evening? Today was a full day off from 13 to 19.00, when the weather was nice, they plan everything for the evening, when there's no time to postpone the series due to bad weather.

These athletes trained for 4 years and you can't postpone something a day or two?

In 2018, they dragged the competition for almost 3 hours in freezing temperatures and now a little snow and it's over? Especially since it stopped snowing 15 minutes later... Well done, Pertile!

Viewing figures. The evening is peak time in Europe and yet doesn’t feel that busy.

Just around 2000, when I started watching ski jumping, 90% of competitions were held during the perfect natural light time: around 1-2 pm- only in Scandinavia were they later afternnon/evening. Now the proportions are reversed, with maybe 10% of competitions taking are earlier in day. Honestly, I have a greater sentiment for that old days.

I'm a bit late, but so proud for our team.  

 

Domen Prevc could become only ski jumper in history to achieve Big Slam, winning 7 biggest prizes, Nykaenen missing on Ski Flying Crystal Globe and Kraft missing on Olympic Golds.

 

So,...

 

World Champion

World Flying Champion

Flying Crystal Globe

4 Hills Tournament

World Record

Olympic Champion

 

Now we wait only for World Cup Overall 

 

And all that in just one year. 

 

EDIT: I have to be honest, this were informations from our national broadcaster site. But yes, in earlier times they did not award Flying globes, should have done it, Nykaenen would easily got it in 1983 and 1984. So Domen will hopefully become second in history with clean sweep, but all in 1 year, remarkable.

Looks like Pogacar will have to win everything basically this year to have a chance to be Sportsperson of the year.
