You know how biathlon always takes talented cross-country skiers and teaches them to shoot in the quest of forming the perfect biathlete?

I know that Serbia definitely has some great athletes in shooting, maybe an experiment is in order to see how good they'd be on skis?

On the bright side, 7 misses for Altair is actually really good :cheer:

Biathlon hurts, but when your hobby is to rupture your meniscus, I guess the pain of skiing doesn't frighten you at all.

She'll start in the relay tomorrow, I'm putting my money on Russia with a pain lover like this.

Unsurprisingly, France takes the gold in the junior women's relay, but what else would you expect when your team consists of the numbers 1, 2 and 3 in the Junior Cup? :d 

 

Silver for Norway, bronze for Russia.

Finland was well in top-10 contention in the junior men's relay, but Aapo Erkkilä for some reason stopped in the first lap :( 

He passed 0.8km, but at 2.1km he was a DNF.

Seeing as I've been following the Biathlon scene for a good amount of years and especially focusing a lot on the junior results, I think that it's fair to say that Finland is growing up to be a powerhouse nation in a couple of years, just like Sweden has the foundations now to be able to challenge Norway, Germany, Russia etc.

Gold for Sweden in women's relay! Congrats girls! :clap::clap::clap:

I think Biathlon is going to become a very interesting and attractive sport to Sweden starting from now on. Seeing the amount of junior talent that you're producing, this might surpass the Zidek, Ekholm, Ferry, Bergman era.

    • Ukrainian diver Lyskun switches allegiance to Russia, loses all medals | Olympics News | Al Jazeera   'loses all medals'   I would assume Al Jazeera could have been a bit clearer and mention this would presumably only be national medals. I mean, it's not like the Ukrainian federation, or any single federation for that matter, has the power to strip her of her world and European championships medals I hope (not for her sake, but because that would be a super weird precedent)  
    • That's what I'd plan as well (except for MelFest), but I also know I am hypocritical enough to still want to watch the show and have a fun evening  
    • Confirmation about the broadcasting rights.   If I'm reading it right, for most of Europe it will now be exclusive to Discovery/Eurosport or whatever brand they use.     For outside Europe, it's on YouTube. For Planet VPN....well, let us know if you find out.   fil-taker-list-25-26-winterberg-1.pdf   Also, should have mentioned above that the Nations Cup races today are just over one leg, whereas there are two runs in each of the World Cup races.  
    • Got our first competition of the season coming up in Solitude, Utah  this weekend.  Live on Discovery Plus etc, plus also YouTube and the Olympic Channel.  If you are new to the sport, the sprint races on Saturday will be the format you'll find easy to understand.     ISMF   ISMF Skimo - YouTube    
    • Surely. Her first coach now works in russia (and grandma lives in russia according to Sereda). They were in contact and despite of full funding from  the girl decided to become the star of russian propaganda.  As I saw in X: "It took the Russians four years of war to find a relatively well-known sports personality to carry out such a propaganda operation."
