  1. Starting to look good for the Czech Republic, Czechia, Česko, Jan Zabystran as we head into the mid 30s.
  2. As usual, there’s US college meets going on already on ESPN. Otherwise, first big televised meet will be Karslruhe 27 January.
  3. Off we go with the Men’s Super-G. Temperature is a toasty -12. Impressive 49 skiers going. Early lead for Ortega ! Good thing is that this is not a seeded race like the WC, so the winner can come at any point. Lead now.
  4. Theme tune from Jaws starts playing.
  5. Baserga having a great month.
  6. First stage race of the year starts tomorrow morning - Women’s Tour Down Under, runs to Tuesday, when the Men’s TDU starts.
  7. High winds so lower start in Wengen.
  8. No, they can withdraw but obviously it costs ranking points which determine how many racers start in the personal races & World Champs. So you don’t want to withdraw.
  9. Goggia in spectacular wipe-out. Walks away - plenty teeth left.
  10. IBSF still having problems with YouTube. Planning to use Facebook for the next race, Women’s Monobob 2
  11. So Japan’s cunning “Let’s select good athletes for the events” strategy is paying off so far Also, the two Super G races are rescheduled for this afternoon - 15:00 UK M 18:00 W
  12. Going to be tricky for the girl to come back from 5:11 down in a 5km race, but I think she can challenge for bronze.
  13. Figure skater Kamila Valieva completely cleared of all doping charges, all charges of accusing her competitors of being fat & all charges of being sarcastic to her teachers according to the authorities. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/winter-sports/64268527
  14. Oh Lordy. Nienke Poll - wins the ITT. Wins 5/5 in the Prelims.._4th in the Final.
  15. Wow, spectacular triple wipe out in SF1 hands a Steven Blackburn-style free gift to Martinez.
  16. At last we get to some kind of conclusion in the boarder cross! All the rest of the riders - Universities perched like Bond Villains’ Lairs on the edge of the Alpine cliffs. Nienke Poll - Eindhoven.
  17. Damn, we lost the men’s skeleton because of YT problems, but Gold again for Matt Weston.
  18. It’s the Miracle on Slush as beat for silver! Heartbreak for as they just fall short. Great race to start with! This format is usually in World Cups.
  19. Yeah, they’re a bit like that Iranian guy who sprints off the front for the first 30km of the Cycling World Champs.
  20. Just noticed that on the results/schedule page, you have an option to toggle to your local time!
  21. Shee, we’re going to be here all day with the snowboard cross - they are using, would you believe, the scoring system from Motorcycle Speedway, so everyone gets five runs before the knock-out semis!
  22. Snowboard Cross just started on FISU 3
  23. What’s funny is that the Norwegian teams here seems just to be made up of random everyday people who happen to be studying Accountancy or Engineering or whatever in the USA, not trained athletes at all.
  24. Impressed that are NOT the pair you’d expect -
  25. First medal event up - Cross Country Mixed Team Sprint on FISU 2 Channel. Lots of snow, and 36!!! Nations entered, way way more than we get even in the World Champs. (A few nations double-teaming)
