Why cancelled, bad weather? 

Heavy snowfall last night.

 

meteorologists annunced it already yesterday, so the organizers decided to swap the runs, first they had the slalom run in order to be able to adjust the track for the super-G.

 

However the snowfall was too heavy, so they had to cancel it for today, still considering to move the event later, but apparently not many teams want it so much like we or the swiss...I can already feel the complete cancellation, which would mean we will have only 1 AC now in the future in Beijing next year

Tomorrows W & M Super-G are also in doubts, but the organizers are working hard to prepare the track.

 

Later this afternoon is schedulled another team captains meeting where they will discuss the final situation about todays cancelled W AC and see if there a possiblity to move the event to another date or just completely cancel it. "In the afternoon, all involved teams will meet. I believe we will find a solution. We have several options. It's not just about the sports side, but also about the marketing coverage - television broadcasting and the approval of sponsors,"

 

About the weather forecast, According to the organizers, a temporarily more stable weather can be expected on Tuesday, but a significant improvement will not come until Thursday. "We do not expect new snow until Tuesday evening. However, the forecast for Wednesday is not good again. The stable positive forecast will not come until Thursday, and the long-term forecast then assumes ten days without weather problems,"

M Super-G moved from tomorrow to Thursday 13:00 CET.  W Super-G still schedulled for tomorrow 10:30 CET.

 

W Super-G moved to 13:00 CET (Only in case If the organizers will be able to prepare the piste)

 

M Super_G officially moved to Thursday, that means the 1st M Downhill training originally schedulled for Thrusday is cancelled, there will be only  M Downhills Trainings this time.

 

Still nothing new about eventual postponing of todays cancelled W Alpine Combined.

    • Meanwhile, a bit of a request for help: I have been trying, but if anyone can find the qualification rules for the world championships in Trondheim, specifically the requirements to be allowed to start in all races, that'd be great, I can't find it anywhere yet..   Edit: of course I found it right after asking for help     Only remaining question is: does 'current' mean what at that moment is the current list (the 6th FIS points list) or the one that is used for the eligibility for the WSC 2025 as listed on the 'Dates of the lists' document (5th FIS points list)?    
    • Happy New Year to you as well!   So, we got back from Oberwiesenthal Sunday night, after an adventurous drive in the snow and a long road back home. It went well there: the classic sprint on Saturday resulted in 314 points, which improved her own position towards the team sprint in the world championships (being in the team sprint is potentially very important towards the Olympics). She beat her main rival by a whopping 11 seconds, so that was awesome.   20k mass start classic on Sunday wasn't that good: in the first of six laps, some athletes around her fell, one of them hit her left foot (the one that got injured in the accident 3 years ago) and that resulted in quite some pain. I was waiting with my drinks in the coaching area, but after the field passed there in lap two, she didn't appear, so I knew something was up. Walked back and saw her walking towards me, then she explained what had happened. The pain after being hit in the foot was too much to keep going for 16km, especially in a race that wouldn't count for the Olympic ranking anyway and was only meant for 'racing rhythm', continueing could do more damage than good.   That's a shame, but no problem, the sprint went well and that was WAY more important. Also: the day before the race we went to the Polish wax cabin to ask for help, because she does always need someone to wax her skis and 'Team' Brazil isn't really an option. The Polish very gladly helped (and were paid with a nice 12-pack of beer we brought for that occassion) and the skis were really good, so that was fantastic. Even better: after the mass start, and explaining why being hit in the foot was such a problem and so on, the wax guy - without us even asking - offered to also help at the world championships, and invited her for a training camp with the team in the summer     December had gone very well as well, right now (with still this entire season and half of next season to go) she is leading the Brazilian Olympic ranking by a nice margin. Of course many races to come for everyone, but so far, so good!   Next option is 17-19 January, FESA Cup in Falcade. Financially it's a bit tough, since that is yet another 2300km with the rental car (with which we already did 1600 now, and we only have 2000 on the contract, so every km outside of it costs 20 cents), plus another accomodation needed. We're looking into the options, because Falcade has a classic sprint AND a 10k freestyle, which is the absolute perfect combination considering those are the things that count for the Olympic ranking. We're trying to scrape enough together, so...we'll keep you updated
