Ugh! This reminds me that NBC made some bullshit streaming pass that costs $70 US to view all the winter sports when I could watch them for free. F*** capitalism

sad news about Per Elofsson...the former Swedish cross country world and world cup champion had a stroke a few days ago...:cry:

he's alive, but now he's experiencing a lot of really big troubles and he has to face a very tough (and uncertain) rehab...

https://vaaju.com/swedeneng/per-elofsson-received-stroke-cohabitation-ia-backlund-tells/

unfortunately almost all news about it are in Swedish language, this is the only article in English I could find (I admit I didn't spend much time for that, since I already read all the info on an Italian website)...

good luck to him and his family...:fingers:

 

not so dramatic, but there are bad news also about Sergei Ustyugov...

earlier today he fell down while training on the skirolls in Val Senales (ITA) and he had to go to the hospital...

there are no official news yet about how serious the accident was, but apparently he had strong pain (and possibly further damages) to his left hand and ankle...

Interesting results in the men's race. Norwegian Haakon Lie, well-known from his (among others) 448th place at the 2012 Norwegian junior championships, wins by over six minutes with 73-year old Norwegian Thai Karl Fred Kristensen in 2nd place.

And it’s just the clean FIS world feed too. NBC isn’t even doingn anything other than retransmitting it.
