    Ugh, saying bye to your partner on some inhumanely early time on Christmas morning, meh. But oh well, races have to be done and one prerequisite in order to do cross-country skiing races is, you know, snow, so not much of a choice
     
    Hoping to have a "I arrived safely" message right around the time my parents and I start our Christmas dinner, that would ease everyone's mind
     
    Merry Christmas to everyone and as always, enjoy the undoubtedly exaggerated amounts of food and stuff

    Yeah, there's certainly things to complain about from an athletes' perspective, but snow should really not be much of an issue indeed. Mostly things like the enormous geographical spread and it's consequences like there not being one big opening ceremony and everything being spread around a bunch of small Olympic 'villages'/accomodations - so not really the Olympic feeling and atmosphere for the athletes since they'll mostly just stay around athletes of their own sport as in any regular competition.
     
    We'll be going very near to the Olympic area in a few weeks (Coppa Italia in Falcade), let's see what things look like by then.

    oh, c'mon! there's plenty of natural snow there!
     
    there's no need at all of artificial snow, even for HP and BA jumps
     
    not a case that Eliasch is only complaining about funding, AKA his bribe is not enough
     
    fuck him and all the English speaking media goin'on with this fuckin', slandering campaign
     
    they would really deserve to be left out at night during the Olympics, not sleeping in luxory 10-star suites like they will

    lo snowboard alpino vince solo perché non c'è concorrenza 
    sono tutti ultratrentenni, sia i nostri che gli avversari (specie al maschile)
    e gareggiano sì e no 4/5 paesi
    ci fossero un po' di praticanti giovani in giro per il mondo, saremmo in grossa difficoltà come negli altri sport
    godiamocela finché dura (o meglio, finché il cio non stacca la spina a questa geronto-disciplina)

    Le piste di SBX in italia si contano sulle dita di un napoletano dopo capodanno, direi che abbiamo fatto un miracolo. Comunque ci sono diversi talentini giovani in rampa di lancio

    con i se e con i ma non si fa nulla
     
    la pista avrebbe dovuto essere pronta prima e, soprattutto, dovrebbe avere caratteristiche tecniche diverse, ma abbiamo questa che è venuta pronta adesso ed è inutile continuare a lamentarsi, bisogna solo lavorare e sfruttare il tempo che rimane, che è abbastanza per garantirsi una conoscenza della pista superiore alla concorrenza 
     
    tutto il resto, è solo inutile vittimismo
     
    per il resto, mi pare di parlare bulgaro 😤
     
    noi non siamo la Lettonia, che la pista ce l'ha da decenni e in pratica vive di 3 sport, seguiti e praticati da tanti bambini
     
    noi abbiamo 4 gatti che fanno gli sport invernali (sci alpino a parte), non possiamo decidere di lasciare niente e nessuno per strada
     
    oltretutto con i miseri finanziamenti nostrani non ti garantisci nulla, ci paghi al massimo le trasferte stagionali
     
    non abbiamo le decine e decine di milioni di € dei tedeschi nè le loro case automobilistiche che sostengono e fanno ricerca anche per questi sport
     
    senza quello (ed è evidente che qui non ci sarà mai, visto che le infrastrutture e il knowhow della ferrari fanno più danni che altro), qualunque discorso è inutile, saremo sempre tecnologicamente un passo indietro
     
    e per favore, non facciamo paragoni insensati con la Russia, i regimi dittatoriali e paesi inclini al doping sistematico ai massimi livelli
     
    la nostra soddisfazione (impagabile) è vedere spuntare qua e là un Ghiotto, un Giacomel, un Deromedis...campioni che sono come un fiore sbucato nel deserto, stelle che illuminano sport che sono conosciuti a malapena dai parenti stretti degli atleti (e 4 sfigati, malati di sport come noi...quando va bene)

    Like I said, that's fine though. It would be great to have Olympics on a relatively slow track, which makes for different kind of races but certainly no less interesting.

    you don't even have idea how it works
     
    last week he was the best of the field and now he's in bad shape?
     
    on Friday he was 24th despite 4 (4!!!!!) missed shots and Yesterday he suddenly went out of shape?
     
    be serious!
     
    he either just had bad skis or he got sick, like many other athletes (see Vittozzi)
     
    the snow in LGB is usually shit, results are always heavily influenced by that and Italy is one of the teams that usually struggle a lot in that place
     
    nothing new and nothing to be worried about
