Canadian Mixed Doubles Olympic Trials final between Peterman/Gallant and Homan/Bottcher, here we go! (I’m aware I’m late, I’ve been typing this in between rocks)

Odermatt, and I’ll do the rest later

Tran/Kleiter and Homan/Bottcher defeat Jones/Laing and Cotter/Cotter to advance to the 3v4 playoff game. Winner to the semifinals (against the 1v2 playoff game loser, either Weagle/Epping or Psterman/Gallant), and the loser is eliminated.

Lott/Lott and Walker/Muyers both out Well… I hope the final will be Peterman/Gallant v. Homan/Bottcher. Them or one of them with Weagle/Epping, I don’t trust any of the other pairings.

As long as it’s not multiple countries worldwide (unless it’s countries bordering each other…), anywhere in India, Saudi Arabia, and probably even Doha I’m fine with pretty much anywhere.

Excellent news, I’ve just talked to Devin and all matches will be live streamed for free on the Curling Canada YouTube channel https://youtube.com/@curlingcanada?si=qAScw4KIBTe7rdHO

My favourite part

Merry Christmas to all my fellow Totallympians!

Curling Canada+ has the rights to it, unfortunately it won’t be streamed on TV.

Mixed Doubles Olympic Trials start in less than a week!

My mistake then

Gold for Reece Howden during the second race day of the Innichen WC. Otherwise a pretty disappointing outing for the Canadian team… with no medals on the women’s side and only one on the men’s side

Well he did win both of the World titles at last years World Championships, which was held in Bakuriani

Halfpipe WC Copper Mountain, United States Women Gold- Eileen Gu (90.50) Silver- Zoe Atkin (89.75) Bronze- Cassie Sharpe (89.00) First medal for Sharpe since giving birth Men Gold- Alex Ferreira (94.75) Silver- Brendan MacKay (91.25) Bronze- David Wise (89.00) Full Results

Ski Cross WC Innichen | Innichen, Italy Women Gold- Daniela Maier Silver- Jole Galli Bronze- Marielle Berger-Sabbatel Not sure what’s going on with the women… Men Gold- Reece Howden Gold- Alex Fiva Bronze- Simone Deromedis Full Results

Too early to have favourites? Personally, I don’t think so.

Halfpipe WC Copper Mountain | Copper Mountain, United States Men Gold- Ayumu Hirano (97.00) Silver- Yuto Totsuka (94.75) Bronze- Ruka Hirano (92.75) Women Gold- Sara Shimizu (90.50) Silver- Cai Xuetong (88.50) Bronze- Mitsuki Ono (88.00) Shimizu with her first WC podium and win at only 15 years old! Watch out for her at Milano-Cortina Full Results

Well this thread flopped horrifically…

Dual Moguls WC Bakuriani | Bakuriani, Georgia Women Gold- Jaelin Kauf Silver- Rino Yanagimoto Bronze- Perrine Lafont Men Gold- Walter Wallberg Silver- Benjamin Cavet Bronze- Filip Gravenfors Full Results

Gravenfors bringing the heat to his runs with massive airs, dang

Kingsbury makes a mistake and is out in the quarterfinals
