Some of the moves from the South African guy in breaking dance look like what I do in the morning when I search everywhere around my room trying to find my glasses.

I was counting on at least one place in the final. That's dissapoiting. But if they can't be in first ten in two events, winning a third one can't give anything.

 

Meanwhile Axel drew his second match.

 

naaaa...they had no chance here...they're pure sprinters...

and this format favors clearly the lead & boulder specialists...

on the other hand, here we have a lot of the youth & junior lead & boulder world medallists from last august...the Slovenians, the Austrians, the French girl Nolwenn Arc (and not to mention Laura Rogora, who won the youth world championship in Boulder and was into the final of the senior world champs in Lead...but still failed to make the final here :facepalm::wall:)...

I'd say that we have 5 of the 6 favorites in the final (just replace the German girl with Rogora and basically it would be the "perfect" top 6, according to the pre-competition preview)...

After 7 events, the medal table could be mistaken for the one for Tank Biathlon, especially with 2 golds for :RUS and :VEN.

Wow... idk what to say about this break dance event. I shudder if this is the future of the Olympic movement. Only good thing is it is sharing a venue ?

I really didn’t want to watch, but it ended up being my favorite event today. Best atmosphere, exciting (continuous) performances, good judging format. Can’t say enough good things about the event, and I was a skeptic when they added it

watching this break dance competition, now I have a nightmare thinking about what if this thing makes it to the Olympics ?! :facepalm:

Why it was the most popular, most exciting event today?

    • I won't write about injuries (Fede) and non-sporting matters (Colturi), but the fact is that Italy has its worst start to the season in alpine skiing in over 10 years... Just one victory, and podiums- if any, they're mostly 3 places. We're also not leading in any of the season standings, no in the women's or men's categories. This isn't be it should be in an Olympic year in your country, where you're having your worst season in many years.
    • Plaisier blew 3 match darts and Ratajski comes back to win!    
    • Yes, she was unlucky, but it could just as easily have happened during some training, like with Gut, etc. Brignone has been essentially injury-free throughout her long career, which is very rare in this sport. It's unfortunate that this happened after her best season ever and just 1 year before the Olympic Games in home, when she just missing of win the Olympic gold medal in her great career. With the gold in Cortina, she would have become a legend of Italian skiing, on par with Tomba. Now she's still the best Italian woman in history, but the miss of Olympic gold will likely haunt her for the rest of her life. 
    • It sad to see this season, as I remember, that Fede last year was winning everywhere, when she competed and finished and now we haven't even managed a single podium in the giant slalom, and it'll probably stay that way until the end of the season. Without Fede and Bassino, unfortunately, we're out of good cards in this event. For me Goggia should probably skip the giant slalom at all, becouse she has no chance of a podium and she risks further injuries. If even Goggia finish 8th or 10th? What difference does it make? If she couldn't get a podium finish today with so many DNFs at the top skiers, she probably never do. Della Mea is OK this year, but let's be honest, she's not World Cup podium material. Overall, it's a sad picture, and we have a 0% chance of anything in Cortina unless a miracle happens in Brignone return.   We have two chances for Goggia in DH and SG + maybe a dark horse in Pirovano/Curtoni in SG. That's all. In technical events, we have a 0% chance for medal and that's sad. Our federation also lost Colturi in this situation... In any normal country, the head of such a federation should be dismissed for disciplinary reasons and this case should be investigated by the minister, or even the prime minister, but not in Italy...
    • Mikaela Shiffrin  off the podium today (Edit: Oops...I thought this was slalom, not Giant Slalom.).  Nina Astner  entered the 2nd run in 30th place, but had the best second run, jumping up 18 places to 12th.
    • Maryna Gąsienica-Daniel with a 5th place PB in Semmering GS! 
    • Today RDC will defeat Senegal  and Tunisia 0-0 Nigeria
