Good crowds, in Kazakhstan. Meh

Speed Skating doesn’t really get any crowds outside of the Netherlands, and a few select events here and there.

Absolutely horrid weather, small field of skaters, small crowd, but some great racing on the men’s side (and an awesome crash around 14:15 as well):


That weather looks awful. I love the cold weather, but even I would’ve stayed inside that day. Doesn’t seem like very many European skaters made the trip to :USA. Another great track too. I’m seeing quite a nations in the World Rankings, so if Salt Lake wins the bid for 2030...

Opening World Championship (basically their version of a WC) is on next Saturday, in Winterleiten, Austria. I believe all events will be streamed on the ATSX Ice Cross Youtube channel, but not entirely sure on that.

Those two North American stops are *really* in the middle of nowhere xD

Aren’t they all? :p
 

Haven’t heard of any of those cities before.

But seriously....did some internet research.   Seems Red Bull dropped the sport in 2019, so obviously a lot lower profile nowadays.  They can't have the Montreals or St Pauls anymore.  so no choice but to go to the smaller resorts.

The 2024 season just started in :AUT Winterleiten. Good opener with unexpected :POL winner in men's competition. This sport is something new for me, but seems very interesting.
