Yet for another world cup, team Germany remains absolutely the same. Meaning that the only person that ever got a chance besides these six ladies was Karolin Horchler, whilst Dahlmeier was sick.

 

Also, why do these become longer with every race???

If you take two more lines even when nothing has changed you will never reduce the length :d

Shooting is indeed not very important in Nordic Combined, I agree. 

In Nordic combined do they shoot during the cross-country or the ski jumping?

Well, yeah :d Although I can't deny, that it's fairly weird how Germany kept the exact same team throughout the entire season. (when Dahlmeier became healthy)

The final pre-Olympic World Cup stage, where athletes can test themselves for the last time, a place where some Olympic teams will be finally decided and a place that some athletes decided to skip for the Olympic preparations. Ladies & Gentlemen, I bring you the hottest start list news for the women's sprint:

 

Seems that Canada's A Team has already returned to Canmore for the Olympic preparations, leaving Beaudry, Bankes and Moser in the start list.

 

Drastic changes for Team Poland as their A team is probably on a training camp, they're sending Zuk, Mitoraj, Piton and Maka to represent tomorrow.

 

 

Yes and yes :d Canada's A team is in home, as almost all of them yesterday were announced by Canadian NOC to Olympic team. 

 

Scott Gow even posted on his facebook photo of his Christmas tree and pointed out that he celebrates Christams just now, as in December he stayed in Europe.

 

And our Team A stays in Ruhpolding for training camp as you said.

They have a strong A team and no real talent strong enough to jeopardize the order yet (when you see that the same Horchler sisters are the danger)

In Nordic Combined the athletes are the target, clay pigeon shooting style, during the ski jumping portion.

I wanted to make a joke with shooting at cross-country skiing, but I didn't think of anything witty enough, so you're winning with the Nordic Combined :d

Milano Cortina 2026 will be their fifth Olympic Games.    * The following are athlete roster adjustments that occurred after their respective sport’s team announcement took place. 
    • https://olympic.ca/press/207-athletes-to-represent-team-canada-at-the-milano-cortina-2026-olympic-winter-games/   Official Canadian press release. 207 athletes as @Topicmaster1010mmentioned earlier.    
    • Olivia Weaver was up 9-4 in the 5th game.  Hania El Hammamy  then scored 5 straight points to tie it up.  Then, took the lead with a sixth straight point, then won with a 7th straight point, taking the Sprott Tournament of Champions in New York.  Still, congrats to Weaver for bringing home second place!  (And congrats to El Hammamy...what a streak at the end!)
    • One thing working in our favor with Luge is that Women's Doubles is just one sled per NOC, so I like our chances there.  We'll be 3rd or 4th in the Relay (one of my favorite events)...if everyone slides cleanly, we'll probably be 4th, behind , , and ...but anything can happen in the relay.  (I think in my official predictions I had us 3rd.  Wishful thinking, I suppose.)
    • They can also just count DNSs to handle this specific situation.
    • I suspect IBSF will make the point system equal in the future regardless on the number of competitors.   My fear is that they will make the awarded points lower, like only 90 points to the winner to balance it out.
    • Olivia Asselin (freestyle skiing)   She was at the X Games competing this week. Another medal hope out the drain, she was in the form of her life 
    • You'd have to ask her simpatic boyfriend from the USA about that, who is often seen at competitions with her participation
    • I think Ro is on a lot of marketing stuff, so I don't imagine USABS would be all that keen on her losing the spot. Perhaps that accounts for their deafening silence.
