  3. World Urban Games becomes a reality. Los Angeles has been announced as the host of the first two editions of the World Urban Games in 2019 and 2021. The games will include 7 sports: 3x3 basketball, BMX Freestyle, sports climbing bouldering, break dance, freestyle flying disc, parkour, skateboard street and park and roller freestyle. There will be at least 4 other disciplines in a so-called "urban sports showcase". https://www.insidethegames.biz/articles/1071882/los-angeles-to-host-first-editions-of-world-urban-games-in-2019-and-2021 I have no idea what freestyle flying disc is? But it sounds very urban. Well, I found a video on youtube:
  4. It's probably smelling salts, also known as ammonia inhalants.
  5. To make it simple. Offshore is on open water. Land is not visible. The rest is inshore or coastal. Land is visible.

  7. Statement from The International Finn Association after the decision to cut the Finn for 2024 Olympics. "Most of all we are very disappointed for the many committed Finn sailors affected by this decision, especially the young sailors who have had their campaign ambitions for 2024 cruelly shattered. We feel the Finn class has become collateral damage in the quest for gender equality and Olympic TV rights income for World Sailing. It is a great injustice that many of the best athletes in the sport of sailing no longer have an avenue to the Olympics, and we honestly feel the Olympics will be poorer as a result of the exclusion of the Finn. We know the Finn class will continue to thrive and for the time being we will focus on supporting our athletes as they prepare for Tokyo 2020. In the coming months, the IFA will work towards finding a way back for the Finn on the Olympic programme".
  8. Two B-group lifters won a total medal in London 2012. Tomasz Zieliński won a bronze medal in men's 94kg and Madias Nzesso won a bronze medal in women's 75kg. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weightlifting_at_the_2012_Summer_Olympics_–_Men's_94_kg https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weightlifting_at_the_2012_Summer_Olympics_–_Women's_75_kg But to be honest, none of them "won" their medal at the 2012 Olympics. They were awarded their medals after some of the other medalists were disqualified because of doping. And by the way, Om won his gold medal in London 2012. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weightlifting_at_the_2012_Summer_Olympics_–_Men's_56_kg
  9. From sail-world.com on Keelboats. "At Paris 2024 the boat used will be a displacement monohull (non-foiling) with a shorthanded deck layout. The boat will be between 6-10 metres in hull length, able to perform in 4 to 40 knots with a proper sail inventory for all conditions and be a sloop rig with a spinnaker". https://www.sail-world.com/news/211811/finn-dropped-from-olympics-by-ws-council
  10. World Sailing Council has agreed to introduce a mixed two person keelboat offshore event for the Paris 2024 Olympic Games. The discipline will replace the mixed one person dinghy event which had previously been agreed upon, though it still need to be ratified at World Sailing's Annual General Meeting. https://www.insidethegames.biz/articles/1071842/world-sailing-agree-on-event-change-for-paris-2024
  11. Thailand is really collecting some gold medals in the women's categories, 9 for 9
  12. I know Cavese lost 3-1 today, and you may not be in the best mood, but Sukanya Srisurat is from .
  13. It has happened twice. In 2003 in Anaheim, where Kyle Shewfelt won bronze on Vault and Floor. In 2006 in Aarhus, where Elyse Hopfner-Hibbs won bronze on Balance Beam and Kyle Shewfelt won bronze on Floor. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2003_World_Artistic_Gymnastics_Championships https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2006_World_Artistic_Gymnastics_Championships But two Canadian female gymnasts have never won 2 individual medals at the same WCH, until this WCH.
  14. IWF has overturned their decision on Yulduz Dzhumabayeva: "Following discussions, and in order not to harm the athlete’s achievement, a unanimous decision was taken that the second Clean and Jerk attempt (104kg) was accepted as good lift. Consequently, DZHUMABAYEVA Yulduz (TKM) received Silver Medal in the Clean and Jerk and in the Total". https://www.iwf.net/2018/11/03/iwf-statement-womens-45kg-bodyweight-category/
