  1. This parallel snowaboard is totally low-hanging fruit, Joerg & Dujmovits in the mid-30s, Riegler in her late 40s. It's hilarious that the much-maligned Russia is one nation that actually has found a new talent. Everyone else is set to die on the old name hill Same for the men, two youngest prospects come from Russia, the rest is basically over 30 yo, Fischnaller and Prommegger probably won't retire before they hit 50 at this rate and why should they. There is zero competition in this sport.
  2. Piotr Zyla has a new - much younger - girlfriend these days. He left his wife & kids for her. So he took the "retarding" into a whole new level. Guess a young mistress can do wonders to a man's confidence!
  3. Neah, Poland never stood a chance for a mixed medal so I don't care. I take Zyla beating Geiger in the normal hill event every single day
  4. Oftebro is looking better than any of the Germans at these Champs. I don't see how Norway doesn't win that one
  5. Germany wins by 5,2 points. Probably their only gold medal at these Championships
  6. I know my logic better than you do. Please inform yourself next time before clowning around. Thanks!
  7. Fluke alert! Germany leads after Round 1 by 4,9 pts over Norway.
  8. Ema Klinec blew the women's team event gold and now probably blew the mixed medal chances as well Romania won't finish last as they beat USA by 7 points
  9. No way someone bullies Norway into any changes. They invest more money into cross-country than everyone else combined save for Sweden. It's like trying to ban China in table tennis or Canada in curling. It's just NOT gonna happen
  10. Yes, I mentioned Rolland on the previous page I suppose more people remember her best from the unceremonial exit three seconds into the Vancouver OG downhill
  11. You probably don't follow cross country much? Lampic has 6 World Cup podiums to her name which is quite a lot given how deep Norway and Sweden are in women's sprint. Just because you seemingly don't pay attention to anyone beside Norway, Sweden and Germany it doesn't mean it's always a fluke. Besides Slovenia also won a silver medal in Seefeld in this event which you probably don't realize either
  12. Nope. Nobody beats Rok Benkovic as the biggest Slovenian fluke in WCh history
  13. Very early reports that KV Lie has a broken tibia & fibula. Potential knee injury as well. Schneeberger suffered a broken leg which you could see during live broadcast already.
  14. Pace & Lindh are DH World Champions after all. They never had a World Cup podium in Super G but had multiple in DH. Lindh from Alaska of all places was always in Picabo Street's shadow but she won Olympic silver in 1992 and two medals at WCh including gold in 1997 when Street was out with injury. She retired prematurely due to a back injury after that season aged 28. Nick Fellows was already there to provide ES commentary: Kate Pace won at the infamous Morioka 1993 WCh. Those people who complain about Lake Louise being a boring course need to check back how the Morioka course looked like
  15. Schneeberger with another heavy crash and this also looks bad.
  16. Of course, several skiers have done much better in Downhill than Super G over the years. Siebenhofer and B.Johnson from the current ones, Merighetti, Rolland & Kamer from the recently retired and off the top of my head the likes of Kate Pace and Hilary Lindh dating back to the 90s.
  17. Gut's Super G winning streak is over. Brignone of all people decided to become relevant again
  18. @Olympian1010 I'm pretty sure USA wants to stay out of East Africa forever after the epic Somalia 1993 disaster Not to mention the civil war in Somalia is still going on some 28 years after the failed UN raid
  19. Doesn't like the entire cross country team consist of two Italian-born siblings? Btw, Baiba Bendika will start in the 10km race? No publicity stunt for FIS points only?
  20. Forget it. Biden occupies the most powerful political position in the world and he looks like a guy who'd have trouble ordering a pizza on the phone. After four years or constant Trump blasting the Democrats can't possibly expect to get a free pass on Biden's age and his ramblings that show how old he really looks. It's different when you could hide him behind Obama's youthness, as the President the focus is on him and him alone. No more excuses (unless Kamala Harris or his wife will have to bail him out of PR trouble time and time again ).
