Two downhills next week. No slalom. Still a net loss for speed skiers. There is also a Super G next week. The only Chance to reschedule the second downhill is in Kvitfjell.

The only opportunity would be on Thursday, and I‘m not sure if the host broadcast (ZDF) would deal with this. We have the same thing some years ago, and they also could not reschedule a downhill there, because the Host Broacast not want to transfer the Event, because of to less audience numbers during the week.

Federer91 2,140 Posted January 12, 2021 #424 Share Posted January 12, 2021 They make many different changes, but the one that actually works - the night races, are still not fully developed. Everyone loves them, i don't know why they haven't made a staple out of them, throughout the season. Like have regular Tuesdays be night races, one week men, one week women. There is something special watching skiing at 9-10 o'clock in the night. Kirkpatrick 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No need to install lights for a single World Cup night event Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If there is a will, there is a way. Just like there are lights on almost every tennis tournament now, which 15 years ago was unheard of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
