Slalom Canoeing Qualification to Tokyo 2020 Summer Olympic Games


Recommended Posts

I guess these would be the reallocation lists?

 

Women's K1

:COK Jane Nicholas (accepted)

:CAN Florence Maheu

:CHN Xu Yanru

:TPE Chang Chu-Han

:SUI Alena Marx

 

Women's C1

:FRA Lucie Prioux

:SLO Alja Kozorog

:POL Klaudia Zwolinska

:RUS Alsu Minazova

:HUN Julia Schmid

 

Looks to me like nations are very much encouraged to decline K1 places. After all, K1 places would go to arguably weak nations, while C1 reallocations would make the competition stronger...

  • 4 weeks later...

Test event was done his week-end in Japan and I was wondering why he's not there..did some news browsing and then..

Wow ! Joe Clarke the Olympic Champion in K1 will not defend his title. He lost the internal battle to Forbes-Cryan by 1 point!!

 

I was keeping tabs on GB selection for the first 2 selections and though that's it Clarke got it in the bag

 

Clarke 60 pts

Bowers 52 pts

Cryan 52 pts

 

So for the rest of the selection Clarke screwed badly...

 

The internal battles are cut-throat. What could be next? some sort of "Czech and mate"?

Well now this makes Pan American qualification interesting since :BRA:CANand:USA are all already qualified. :ARG should be the favorite for the quota, but :MEX and :PAR will have outside chances.

If they want, both Brazil and the United States could still qualify in the K1 at the Pan American qualification.

Which wouldn’t really make sense. Both Evy and Ana are much better in both boats than anyone else,

Kind of weird decision by Andorra. I could see them getting a different K1 athlete, since basically everyone in Europe is already qualified, but nope.

 

Maybe France had something to do with it... :whistle:

    • Vittozzi- Wierer in 2019 or even some later. They are still not close friends and do not train together: Vittozzi has been training alone since last season, Wierer with the men's team for 4-5 years and the rest of the Italian team still separately - Vittozzi trained with this second group until she suffered an injury in the autumn of 2024.
    • So far, the Russians haven't even reached the Dnieper River, so don't worry. Poland has the same problem as Ukraine, in that there are no major geographical obstacles to the east: mountains, lakes, rivers, etc. The terrain is quite flat, but to reach Warsaw in a few days, the country would have to fall apart, the army would collapse and the authorities would have to escape from the country. 
    • Probably 0% but in 1939 Germans reached the outskirts of Warsaw after only eight days (the border was more to the east than it is now i.e. they had less ground to cover). The ugly truth is NATO would most likely bide their time in response so the entire eastern Poland would be a battle field for a while.
    • What was the Italian conflict? I can't quite remember.
    • And is there any chance that the Polish president would have escape within the first 2-3 days of war? Probably 0%. In 1939, the authorities escaped, but after an attack from 2 sides, the first being the German attack.
    • Hmm, and were they wanted to capture Kyiv in three days? Since middle of 2022, their run has been slow, so I don't think they'll be using any rapid maneuvers on the future. They surprised Ukraine at the very beginning on the war and were close to success. Zelenskyy only needed to flee the country in the first 2 or 3 days of the war. And Russia could have counted on this happening, because Zelenskyy wasn't an experienced politician or soldier and could have do however they wanted. In my opinion, Zelensky's role in Putin's plan ruined everything for them- he, as a populist and inexperienced man, was to escape from Kiev in the first few days of the war. Then Russia would have put in one of its own- Yanukovych? and Europe and the USA would probably have approved that.
    • Fortifications could only work for illegal immigrants but not against drones. We're wasting missiles worth millions of euro to shoot down drones worth 10k. It's anyone's guess how quickly Russians would reach Vistula River if the invasion came from two sides (Kaliningrad & Belarus). It would be days and not weeks...
    • Shocking news 😔 We just saw him competing 2 days ago in Annecy. 
    • Yes, and Ukraine is very important to Putin- far more important than the Baltic states, Georgia or even Poland. Without Ukraine, the restoration of the former USSR will be impossible for Putin. Another thing is that with pro-Russian Ukraine, Poland will have its entire eastern and northern border (Kaliningrad) with unfriendly countries except Lithuania, so it will basically have to militaries the all entire eastern part of Poland and build various fortifications there.
