Out of curiousity: why do most of these pistol shooters have their non-shooting hand in the pocket of their sweatpants as if they're waiting for their buddy at the corner of the street? :p 

 

I'm assuming it's a balance thing?

Not 100% sure but i think i read that its indeed about balance.

Yeah. I just love his composure and how even when he had the Gold medal virtually in his pocket shot a 10+ score. How are your women's pistol shooters? Will you be leaving one medal for us in the mixed team?

actually right before the last shot he asked his coach "do you want me to take this one with the left hand?" and he kept the pistol in his left hand for few seconds, for a second I really thought he is going to do that :hyper: (he had 6-7 pts lead but still that's insane) fortunately he was just joking.

 

our female shooter is OK, she made some World Cup finals here and there but she is far from his level. I don't think they have a big chance for medal, Foroughi most probably will celebrate too much and won't be focused :d but we will see. nothing is impossible in shooting. I will be very happy if they end up with the bronze. in that case you can take the gold :d

How are the graphics in ISSF events usually? Do they at least have the total standings/scores during the finals? I tried to watch the men's final when it wasn't live anymore today, but that's just impossible (can't use live scores when not watching live), they barely show anything of how the competition is going at all..

it's more or less the same. they show the ranking only after the end of each round. I mean even during those elimination shots, we don't know the ranking after the first shot. (unless you check the website simultaneously)

Wow, I had imagined at ISSF events it'd be different. Like a simple 'tower' of scores somewhere on the left of the screen, updated with every shot. That should be so easy to do and improve the ease of following it so enormously :yikes:

I feel like the graphics score in shooting hasn't changed at all in the last 25 years. I remember how they looked in Atlanta and it's literally the same in Tokyo. Plus they give the overall score after each round ends.

 

Okay, the target background was yellow back then, now it's green :d

Apparently the shooting qualification are being streamed here by Japanese broadcaster NHK (https://en.sports.nhk.or.jp/olympic/schedules/sports/shooting/)

      Unfortunate, but it doesn't change the fact that I'm looking forward to Thursday evening, when the team captain's meeting is over and we have our very first World Cup start list of the season. Always a cool moment to see who's there and everything

      Today I unpacked some of the boxes in which we have put my way too many books to move to our house, and I came across these beauty's I hadn't seen for a while     Absolutely recommended, tough to get for a decent price, but they are such an interesting read with lots of very interesting little stories! Still looking for at least 1900, 1904 and 1906, but not really in the right moment to spend money on that now, so the wait goes on

      The next chapter in the Krasnobaeva saga is upon us.   Looks like  Armenia have cut ties with her after only a few weeks. A person from their Federation has said, that they won't continue the relationship, because of her unprofessional and rude attitude towards the coaches and other officials. That includes: - having no respect to the coaches and their advise; - training without any motivation; - stops doing the routine and throws objects without any reason; - just lays on the floor and ignores the music.   When this was escalated with her mother, she mentioned that "Elvira has a strong temper and she was the same in Bulgaria and they tolerated her". Which of course is complete BS. If anyone attempted this shit here, they would be thrown out immediately.   And now  are wanting from her mother to return all finances they gave them, which she is refusing, so they will probably sue them. They will also inform other RG Federations about this situation, so they don't hire them.   My 2 cents on this is most likely Krasnobaeva was happy in BG and was forced out by her mother, so now she is sabotaging the move and be done with it.

      Honestly Ruka is my favourite World Cup event of the whole season. Everybody is there. Later on there is always someone who skips one weekend or another . Not everybody takes part in Tour de ski. But here everyone shows up.
