Summer Youth Olympic Games 2018

The award for worst mixed team event (in a very competitive field) surely has to go to the new Mixed Youth Team BMX Race.

 

Not only is it conducted as 2 individual competitions - 1 for men and women each. The reuslts website doesn't even acknowledge a final combined ranking. And the interaction between team members is non existant, simply win points for a combined team score.

 

And what has the result been.... it has denied :LAT Latvia and :ECU Ecuador of medals they would have won had it been separate individual events. BMX is already 'youth' and 'exciting' enough without the need for a confusing mixed team event that has resulted in neither of the event winners taking home a gold medal!!!

Yeah cycling has been pretty terrible in terms of Youth Olympics since 2010. There's no need for combined/mixed events. They can easily have boys and girls events. 16 for BMX (plus the 9 for freestyle), 16 for mountain bike and 24 for road, it's not that difficult

A few days ago when I made a schedule for myself, there was supposed to be an artistic gymnastics team competition yesterday, now it's nowhere to be found on any day. What's up with that?

India's grand slam champions Sania Mirza and Rohan Bopanna have somehow got a time machine, worked some magic, and got themselves on the YOG startlist...:facepalm::thumbup::clap:

+1 for graphics actually showing the weight during the attempt :)

 

  Reveal hidden contents

 

Next step would be to show the current standings plus number of attempts left (mostly in CJ) plus where succeeding in the current attempt would bring the athlete.

    • how can you say that?   we've never had so many medal chances like nowadays, we can bring something home in almost every sport   who cares if CC skiing is no longer a medal factory? we have others now   OK, most of our champions are not youngsters anymore, but again, who cares? the Home Olympics are next year, not in a decade   don't look at the single world championship's race, just look at how good we are in many Olympic events and please, for you health's sake, relax and try and enjoy the competition as it is (independently from the Italians' results)

    • I have already written that I will consider 15 medals a success, but it will still be less medals than in 2022 (17)- an edition over our real capabilities at that time in my opinion. In any case, it may be 2 times in a row that Italy as the host of the Winter Games we will get fewer medals than in the previous edition and it will not be nice. Currently we have a more stable base and results achieved in summer sports: 2 more great last editions of the Games and this can no longer be called a coincidence.   It's hard to change anything positively with 1 year to go until the Olympics. We have to count on our veterans in various sports not having injuries and being in good shape. Unfortunately, cross-country skiing has been neglected for many years and even Cramer's good work over the last 3 years couldn't change much. Maybe if we gave him 7 years from 2019, the situation would be better.
