Our girl in single scull made a junior record time in the semis but today lost the gold by less than a second :( 

 

Anyway, all good results are more than welcome in this sport which is dying here.

Entries for the European rowing championships have been published here

If the lights light up exactly at the correct moment, he was definitely first, since his light went on first. Not sure if those lights are 100% accurate though?

4 Irish boats in the A Final at the World Cup in Rotterdam.

3 of those are in Olympic events and we also have 2 boats in B Finals. And with Sanita Puspure absent. Very pleasing results.

The new Irish lightweight double combination of Paul O’Donovan and Fintan McCarthy starting their new partnership with an A Final.

the Rowing Junior World Championships are underway in Tokyo, in the same bassin that's scheduled to host next year's Olympic regatta...

 

all infos and results are available, as usual, on worldrowing's official website, along with the full videos (live and on-demand) of the racing sessions...

 

 

well, I just gave a look to today's races to see how the environment looks like (yeah, I'm always a curious man :lol:)...

 

 

why did I do that? :facepalm::wall:

 

now I'm literally shocked! :yikes:

 

this is the worst rowing/canoeing bassin I've ever seen...:yikes::nopompom::facepalm:

 

basically, it's an artificial channel within the Tokyo docks! :yikes::yikes::yikes:

 

races start under a bridge of the highway going to those docks...

 

the first 900 meters of racing have a backdrop made only by a street with trucks going back and forth and piled containers, piled containers and piled containers again (and at about 650/700 meters from the start there's a passage below another highway bridge)...

 

the last 1000 meters' backdrop is a 10m high grey wall, behind which you can see the same street as before with trucks going back and forth and a small (ugly) hill with a few bushes...

 

even the stands are only placed on one side of the channel, the same of the cameras, so you won't even see the audience enjoying the races...

 

if I think of places like Bled, Lucern...even Milan's Idroscalo...I feel so bad...:cry::nopompom:

 

I just can't believe that the Japanese couldn't find a better place to host their Olympic Rowing/Canoeing events...:facepalm::redcard::spank:

    • That should be one of the main things that should be kicked out of both Winter and Summer Olympics. Every single athlete should at least have the chance to compete after the Olympics are actually declared open.
    • If you didn’t know it was figure skating you would think  Kulewska was in gymnastics with his bodysuit  
    • Yes in Slopestyle,    but there athletes who will not compete after the Opening Ceremony, let be honnest if POL as expected will not qualify to the final rounds their Ice Dance Pair will end their competition at the Olympics before the Opening Ceremony    Same is at risk for the French Pairs and Japanese Ice Dance pair, but here we can expect they qualify in the team event among the final 5 teams though  
    • Lots of mistakes by Switzerland, but our guys are finally playing the way they know how to. 3–0 after the first end.
    • Oh sadly us Canadians know too much about that   Just look at Gilles’ and Porier’s performance at the Finlandia Trophy and tell me how they didn’t win gold, there was so much outrage after that 
    • Moncler has announced 's clothes for the opening ceremony. They are....well, something, I suppose. For rain coats they look quite nice.   Flag bearers get the white ones, Bruna the dark version with the, I don't know...hat?   https://www.instagram.com/p/DUaIyN1DExb/

    • It’s simply the only skating event where jumps don’t matter, only choreography. And how much you bribe the judges matters too.
    • Can’t say I understand how scoring works in ice dance, the rest are easy to determine how good of a score based off spins during jumps
