Cross-Country Skiing at the Winter Olympic Games Beijing 2022


Recommended Posts

A Brazilian-Italian friend picked up Bruna's ski bag from the police station, doesn't look promising...

And yeah, that was a correct estimate. They're not completely snapped in half or anything, but every single pair is damaged in such a way they're just trash now, including a couple of pairs she bought from Baiba Bendika and one pair she borrowed from Baiba (who luckily doesn't care much about it and is much happier Bruna is still with us).

The boots that were in there are at least fine, the poles seem fine, but yeah...carbon poles, not a good idea at all to use them in races anymore.

At least Norwegian women do look like women, unlike a great many former Soviet, American and East German athletes in a wide range of sports.:d

Now that Björgen retired you actually might be right.

Attachment is the great fabricator of illusions; reality can be obtained only by someone who is detached.

If you doubt/can't understand the prodigious talent, great potential and hard work of the likes of Johaug and Bjoergen, then that's your problem, mein Freund. I'm not going to try to change your mind. How about you try getting your friend/compatriot senior Bach to add even more ludicrous sliding sports/events to the Olympic program instead of wasting your precious time on the dirty Norwegians?:d

Congratulations @Finnator123 Finnish girls performed absolutely great today! Amazing.

 

BTW, do you know how's Jasmi Joensuu doing after what happened to her in sprint? Any interviews with her online? After this fall, and all her reactions, I have just become a big fan of her, I must admit.

Apparently she's ready to go back home after the accident with her ski pole...

Nooooooooo... Poor Kerttu. :cry: Damn that lipstick devouer.

 

Silver and bronze is great, but the Finnish bad luck in interval racing is just never ending. I still get flashbacks from when both Saarinen and I. Niskanen placed 4th in Sochi, also with miniature gaps like Kerttu today.

She is a sprinter so no chance in the team sprint. Niskanen and Paramakoski will probably be the team.

    • I love that it is more straightforward in relation to the number of quotas and does not allow possible problems as it was in Tokyo and Paris.
    • I love the judo qualification system, for me is the best in all disciplines. It combines a strong circuit, and it allows 100 or so countries to participate in.   So, maybe, if UWW does its job properly, it will be a good thing.
    • China Media Group (CMG) will broadcast all 116 gold medal events of the Milan Winter Olympics live on CCTV-1, CCTV-5, CCTV-5+ and CCTV-16. It will also use technologies such as 4K/8K ultra-high definition to enhance the viewing experience. Live broadcasts of all events will be carried out from 16:00 Beijing time to 06:00 the next day.
    • The strength of the UK is that they are 100% focused on the track, while Italy must to navigate between the track and the road: the line-up is different for practically every event, etc. Paternoster should focus 100% on the track; she won't win anything big on the road anymore. As it is, she's weak both there and there. The situation is different with Balsamo, as she's also having significant success on the road and likely earns the most money there.
    • Discovery+ in the UK have also got their schedule up now.     I notice that only thing listed as being in UHD is the Opening Ceremony though....     
    • The problem over the last few years was that no-one was able to keep pace with the big Katie Archibald turns. Looks to be sorted now.  
    • The women's top 50 is so crammed with athletes from the same five nations that it is not inconceivable they are unable to fill the full quota from the top 50, in which case a third double spot would open up between USA/BEL/GBR
    • That women's pursuit team looks brutally fast. Batter you over the head into submission brutal, perhaps not seen since the early Trott-Rowsell days The 4 minute barrier could be on borrowed time.   The two British women sprinters Finucane and Caldwell also look pretty ominous, indeed the whole women's sprint team looks in some shape and with some depth to get that result without Finucane   Work to do for the British men's teams, but they won't be unhappy either, not to mention Joe Truman's unexpected Kilo win.
    • I prefer to do mine like this guy (https://app.podiumsport.it/) does his "Projected Medals" as probability based rather than straight medal picking... all things being equal, conversion rates should be about the same and the outliers come out in the wash. Unfortunately most people just like medal picking, and think any other approach is weird  
    • So probably: Men Oceania: Americas: Africa: Asia: One of  Europe: One of Host: World Rankings: Combination of  (probably not)  and whichever countries don’t qualify from Asian Games.  Universality: ? Final Qualification Tournament: One of the above in World Rankings    and one of  (most likely) or  seem safe with two quotas. The other will be favourites if a third team gets allocated two.    Women Oceania: Europe: One of Americas:  /  if US is ineligible due to their host quota, if the host quota gets reallocated then Canada will be in contention in the rankings Africa:   Asia: One of   Host: World Rankings: Combination of  (x1?)  (x1/2)  (x1/2), whichever doesn’t qualify out of  / ,  and  ? Final Qualification Tournament: One of above.  Universality: ?    is safe with two quotas between  it’ll be tough for whoever misses out of those three.   nevermind ,
