Parallel Giant Slalom WC Carezza, Italy Men Gold- Maurizio Bormolini Silver- Edwin Coratti Bronze- Benjamin Karl Women Gold- Ramona Hofmeister Silver- Daniela Ulbing Bronze- Tsubaki Miki Full Results

Men’s OQT roster: No expectations here but a win against either Chile or New Zealand would be nice.

Just a thought, but for athlete of the year, could we potentially do separate categories for winter/summer sports? Too many star athletes would go unnoticed IMO.

First parallel giant slalom WC of the season starts at 10:15 CET in Carezza, Italy. FIS Snowboard YouTube channel will be live streaming the event (may be geo-blocked in some countries) On the men’s side, ones to watch out for are Benjamin Karl (2022 Olympic champion), Tim Mastnak (2022 Olympic silver medalist), Roland Fischnaller (6x World Championships medalist), Oskar Kwiatkowski (2023 World champion), Dario Caviezel (2023 World Championships silver medalist), Andreas Prommegger, Fabian Obmann, Arvid Auner, and Arnaud Gaudet On the women’s side, ones to watch out for are Ladina Jenny, Julie Zogg, Ramona Hofmeister (2018 Olympic bronze medalist), Glorija Kotnik (2022 Olympic bronze medalist), Daniela Ulbing (2022 Olympic silver medalist/2023 World Championships silver medalist), Miki Tsubaki (2023 World champion), and Sabine Scoeffmann

Semifinals Norway v. Denmark Sweden v. France Norway and France have already qualified for Paris, whoever makes it further out of Sweden and Denmark joins them.

Anyone know why Bowman, D’Artois, MacKay, Karker, Sharpe, Hosking, Parrot, and our men’s bobsleigh sleds aren’t competing at the WCs?

Bobsleigh WC La Plagne, France Two-Woman Gold- Laura Nolte/Neele Schuten (2:02.24) Silver- Kim Kalicki/Leonie Fiebig (2:02.36) Bronze- Elana Meyers Taylor/Emily Renna (2:02.46) Full Results 4-Man Gold- Team Francesco Friedrich (1:56.14) Silver- Team Johannes Lochner (1:56.58) Bronze- Team Adam Ammour (1:56.69) Full Results Not a great start to the WC season for Canada (in pretty much all sports, although a bunch of our top athletes haven’t started their season yet). Ribi and Appiah are expected to be contending for medals. Men are capable of contending for medals when they’re at their best, but for some reason they haven’t competed at the last few WCs, unsure why though.

Elina Svitolina (tennis) maybe?

Entry lists?

4 (!!) medal day at the ski cross WC in Arosa! Jared Schmidt and Hannah Schmidt win gold (they’re siblings for anyone wondering), and Reece Howden and Marielle Thompson win silver (in Thompson’s case along with two other athletes, as all three registered a DNF in the big final)!
