Germany was a country that used to dominate women's speed skating not that long ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, and still Stephanie Beckert in 2nd place, who used to be amazing for a very short period of time 7-8 years ago and has not gotten anywhere close to that level since. If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated!

Dennis 600 Posted November 4, 2018 #33 Share Posted November 4, 2018 Kodaira already skated a 37,30 in Nagano this season, 0,17 slower than her track record. No one this season has come close. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly, another 30-year old. Which is fine, if that 30-year old is world class, but 4:12 in Inzell isn't world class at all. And looking at the results, there are no youngsters coming through.

That's really cool: she had so much troubles with her back, which even has been broken...then she came back, got injured again but never gave up and now it's rewarded Where did you get those results from ? I see the link results I was using until last year (https://live.isuresults.eu/home) is not showing results anymore Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
