Another postponement... And they dare to call St. Moritz as the most sunny place in the Alps. :p

Well it is sunny, there's just a band of clouds passing by all the time :d

Jan Hudec was MAD yesterday :d

After one of the most poorly managed days EVER in ski racing yesterday, by you know who, (I won't go into details) cancelling our training (of course after the top 30 skied) then sending us up again to 3000 meters with all or gear on a blue bird day, then finally cancelling AGAIN. Only to try to do a training run today (with everyone, even the ones who got to ski yesterday) in a snow storm today. And nobody has the balls to say anything at the coaches meeting. #pathetic. #itsgettingworse So, I opted to say ".... .... .. ......" and stayed in bed. Now enjoying this killer breakfast at the post hotel in pontresina. #nutella @nutella 
For the all the guys that didn't go yesterday, hope you get to run. Doesn't look awesome though. #VETmove #stmoritz #stmoritz2017 #hotelpost #pontresina #switzerland #worldchamps #worldchumps? 
Besides all this the courses and the tracks the organ of crew have built and prepared here are HANDS down the most beautifully, epic, "safe" and spectacular tracks we've had all year. Maybe everyone should ask these guys how to build jumps. 
For how dangerous this sport is...
For how much money it generates... For how many fans its has around the world... For how much Tv coverage it gets... For how good the athletes are... For how hard the teams work with A lot of daily risk to their athletes... ITS AMAZING how un-professionally the safety of the athletes is managed by... We understand weather. We understand the danger of ski racing. We understand stress. Ski racers more than most. But it's time for skiers AND their coaches to POOR and sometimes #mickeymouse Decision making. Or perhaps worse, utter, blatant disregard for the athletes themselves. #mediawins abba said it best. #moneymoneymoneyissofunnyinarichmansworld 
And I didn't even give you the DETAILS!!! We understand stressful situations and weather. But yesterday's events could have been EASILY avoided if the FIS knew how to play chess instead of just playing checkers all the time. #thinkstrategy 
Sorry not translating into Czech. I only know the swear words (which are sufficient) but wouldn't get my point across properly ... have a nice day everyone!!!

 

 

Annoying that he says his Czech isn't good enough to translate it, yet he does write it in incredibly poorly readable English.

    • I don't see any photos from the Caspian Sea? I wonder if there are swimming conditions there?
    • Some other fast swims today include a new commonwealth record by Duncan Scott in the 400m free and a European record in the 100m IM by Marchand. Watch out for some quick swims in the 200m free and 200m IM later on. 
    • Last stop on this TISC Central Asia tour: Turkmenistan    One of the most closed and censored lands in the world, Turkmenistan is a place with incredible things to visit, with a beautiful desert landscape, historical ruins from ancient civilisations, and the unique "Door to Hell".   But it is also a country where everything is controlled and restricted (we had no access to social networks and tons of blocked websites, can only enter with invitation letter, with a predefined tour and accompanied by a guide at all times), with giant megalomaniac buildings created in order to maintain a cult of the leader and its regime. It basically felt like what i imagine is North Korea (but without the hate for americans).   It is eccentric, it is impressive, but above all, it is bizarre. Here is a patriotic catchy song i heard when was traveling there. .      Mähri Pirgulyýewa – Halkyň arkadagly zamanasy                        
    • pizza makers continue to innovate, leaving Old Europe in the dust.  First pineapple, now they solve the eternal pepperoni distribution problem.   Town goes viral for its outrageous way of topping pizza with pepperoni: 'This is genius' | Daily Mail Online
    • 2:12.72 for  Douglass in the women’s 200m breaststroke, holy crap 
    • I was gonna join in, but if it's tonight, I'm afraid I won't be able to
    • I was away yesterday, but if the draw is tonight I might be able to help if needed!
    • They do have the by far best current Dutch NHL player though  
    • Took a couple of videos, but completely forgot to take even a single picture and the file size of the videos are too big for Totallympics so I had to find a site to upload it to   https://streamable.com/ga23lv   Vibes at the game were good, place was loud, and I downed a $6 poutine from Costco before the game. Unfortunately, the game didn’t go so well, it took us a solid 45 minutes to actually start playing hockey besides some bursts here and there, and after coming back from down 1-3 we gave up the OT goal less than a minute in (Typical Canucks fashion), but  Lankinen stole us a point, they had so many solid opportunities on him and we had no business staying close.    Really mediocre start to the season for the Canucks so far, even with 11 points in 8 games, a lot of players not showing up (Petey, Soucy, Myers, Hög, Miller, DeBrusk, although for DeBrusk he’s been known to have a streaky game) and our power play and overtime have been fucking dogshit (power play has been like this for years). Shoutout to Garland, Hughes, Sherwood and Lankinen though they’ve been incredible so far 
    • Hi I see this now. When is the draw? What do you need me to do?
