Still no feedback from :BOL:COL:ERI:GER:ITA:KEN:PAK:PER:RSA:SRB:SUI:SWE:TOG. Congrats for being so care free! :p

 

Any guesses who will be the last to confirm? I'm all in for :ERI Eritrea. :cheer:

 

why did you put Italy in that list?

 

I posted yesterday the final decisions of our NOC...

 

Quote

it's official (today there was the final meeting of our NOC to determine how many athletes fly to Korea)...Italy will use "only" 20 Alpine Skiing spots...

 

the already selected skiers are:

 

Men

Luca De Aliprandini, Peter Fill, Stefano Gross, Christof Innerhofer, Manfred Moelgg, Dominik Paris, Riccardo Tonetti

 

Women

They still haven't confirmed that on the FIS website though.

OK...but as I wrote, it's still the official decision by our tech panel...yesterday there was the official CONI press conference and all those infos were publicly released, so there's no way they're gonna change anything...

 

probably the final confirmation on FIS website will come only after all the 20 names have been determined, so to be sure that we have 4 starters in each race for both men and women (because this is still unsure in a couple of disciplines...we might select more specialists rather than worrying to fill all the 4 combined event's spots, for instance)...

If I'm not wrong, for the names of the athletes they can wait until Sunday but the number of quotas must be confirmed today. 

As for the numbers given yesterday, they are just an estimate...

Italy just confirmed 8 quotas in ski jumping (not 6)

Well, that's an unfair allocation. First of all, the document says that reallocations will be applied on the 25th. Secondly, Czechs will get a reallocation anyway so this extra quota for team event was uncalled for, as they will not need it!

The document says that the allocation of team event places comes before the other unused quotas. 

They should have waited a few hours but the result is the same, since :LIE and :CRO have already refused.

 

Anyway it's good that :CZE accepted even knowing that they will be without Ledecka.

 

Also, 22 confirmed for Switzerland

    • I read now that Valentina Rodini will be in the new team of Tizzano + Galtarossa and Martini. I was probably in such an information bubble on Instagram that I thought that only Abbagnale was running a campaign and had a team of people around him. That's why I was surprised by his defeat + the fact that, for example, Rodini supports his rival. But as I wrote, for me the change in the general coach position is a plus. We need a new opening and a new impulse: Cattaneo had his best results in Tokyo and then he only explained that his rowers were running away abroad to the USA to study and that's why he had worse results. Ok, except that it's the same in Romania and Greece but they results are comparable or better. It's obvious that no one here will make the UK or the Netherlands, because we don't have such resources and money but I think we can repeat the Romanian results (2 gold - 3 silver in Paris) and that will be a much better result than the 2 silver in this year.
    • Abbagnale boasted that he had 80 per cent a few days before the vote (I still have the screen) and ran again as a result of a power deal. Not a great loss.   I have doubts about the new technical director though, you can't announce him during the congress, brandishing the scalp of the Abbagnale era technical staff (who then, were Crispi's men). Let's hope there are no rifts between the new staff and the athletes, it had to be handled better.
    • I was surprised by Abbagnale's defeat. I thought he was a sure of victory, since he decided to run - I read some source that he didn't know if he would start before Paris 2024. What do you think about it?

    • Cattaneo was good but his peak was in Tokyo 2021. Then there was such stabilization - stagnation. In Paris the result was in line with expectations but without the wow effect. They threw everything that was best into the quadruple sculls and it was enough for a only silver. Now without the lightweight sculls in LA I think that radical changes are needed to remain competitive. Previously there was a 3-year Olympic cycle due to Covid, so big changes weren`t good but now I think the time is right. Although of course more funds are needed for this sport in Italy, because even the best coach will not overcome this vel our men`s alpine skiing sector
    • @Gianlu33 we posted the same (great) news at the same time  
    • Davide Tizzano (1996 Olympic Champion, men's double sculls) is the new President of the Italian Federation, as he defeated the (now former) President Giuseppe Abbagnale by a very small margin (52% to 48%) in last week's federal elections   and he's already at work to make up for the last 8 disappointing years (at least in terms of Olympic success): his first move is bringing back home  Antonio Colamonaci  who made  great in the past 8 years   https://www.oasport.it/2024/11/canottaggio-cambia-la-direzione-tecnica-dellitalia-arriva-il-guru-che-ha-reso-grande-la-romania/   let's see if he can make  great again, now
