"It"?!

Interesting that that is the thing you notice most and not the fact that in this very month you're gonna be a father.

@hckosice Your son who will be born a day before Christmas has time travelled back to Totallympics

More 'stats' Also, Filipinos fap the longest (or are the worst in finding the right stuff for them)

Still 0.4 million people more than our biggest

Stop calling our biggest cities towns

Oh well, Volkov is in the rear end of national competitions anyway these days, Starikh and Loginov would be a matter of good riddance. Shipulin would be kinda sad.

Cool to see someone from Roraima in the team Like many very northern and/or western states it's a bit like the Kyrgyzstan of Brazil for me, as in: never hear anything about it so it's kinda like a 'far away mystery'

I partially agree It's nice to see more emotion than one often sees in other sports, but in the end for me it's mostly the match itself that makes it interesting.

Not a different sport than most others in that regard, every sport has 'unique' characters

RIP teeth

That's just a commercial team who have been good all year

This 4x200 free final was awesome

Wow, bye Medeiros That was terribly bad

From 10:45 or something (the audio doesn't seem to be synched with the video ), that 'music' suddenly starting in the background when it's decided

Fuck yeah Morozov

Kyrgyzstan is in And as for South America: it's mostly also a matter of snow (and venues) being available, which is the case for Chile and Argentina. Brazil has a few oldies (far in their 30's or older) and almost every single young athlete is thanks to Leandro Ribela's 'Ski na Rua' project, which has grown from a handful of kids from São Paulo's favelas to a huge project. Anyway, for a continent like South America I honestly think having three nations represented is really not bad or disappointing.

New representation in terms of athletes has been happening for a few years and continues to happen, new representation in terms of even more countries is harder. I can't really remember hearing about other nations than BRA, ARG and CHI in the IBU Development camps in places like Termas de Chillan and Bariloche, maybe one Ecuadorian but I'm not sure.

You haven't noticed that IBU Cups in the past 2 years are filled with Brazilians? Three women and two or three men competing in them, with a couple of guys in the Junior Cup as well (and there's a bunch of teenage guys and girls starting to get more and more active on the snow - XC skiing - who might very well be given a chance in IBU competition in the next few years). There's a few young Argentinian girls too and behind Claudia Salcedo and Juan Agurto I believe even Chile has some young athletes (who are still rather far away from Brazil's level, but alright).

They are 15 and 16 years old, so that's good. Also, they are living (and I think raised in) Norway and Austria respectively, which means they can train with a lot stronger people than they otherwise could

Netherlands is alive and at the IBU Junior Cup with two guys

What a match, Cross beats De Zwaan 3-1, but De Zwaan had a huge 106,09 average. That's the 2nd highest losing average in WCH history, after Van Barneveld's 109,34 when he lost that epic semi against Van Gerwen in 2017.

But Dekker won

Lisa Ashton is DESTROYING Jan Dekker Leg 1: 110-finish after starting with 140 Leg 2: Finished in 15 darts Leg 3: 121-finish in bullseye First set: 3-0 Ashton, 107 average

Cody Harris managed to come up with a trick and beat Martin Schindler.
