Well, Swaziland has a considerable population of people with European origin (within the African top 15-20 in terms of total number). Still, the odds of them getting BMX athlete are not exactly big.

C'mon, if you see a Swaziland flag on an official site, what do you think?

Don't let it get cold then

 

 

This is the sport where Swaziland is going to win its first medal after all. It does matter.

 

Spoiler

Honnestly, the crowd is kinda of unbellievable either

On a side note, I've just checked previous World Cup results. There were a whooping 8 girls competiting in the first stage in Montpellier...

 

Thank you IOC, thank you.

I have a feeling World Cups mean absolutely nothing in BMX freestyle and definitely don't have the best in the world competing

That sounds likely. The best ones are shooting videos for youtube as we speak. Though, we are stuck with these ones until the IOC find his sense back.

In a World Cup? That's new  

 

I always thought most athletes in all these X-Games sports that have no place at the Olympics didn't give two shits about stuff like World Cups or events organized by the recognized federation

Sponsors don't like their athletes showing once a year (X Games). This Hannah something is probably the best at the moment for example.
