    Fairly insane evening last night in North America's Cheboksary, with Thompson-Herah getting very close to nucleair FloJo's WR being the most, let's say, interesting moment Nice to see Kambundji beat everyone in the 200

    And wow, that 400m semi of Roshawn Clarke must have been the fail of the year. Just, wow. Learned a very hard lesson right there.

    Out of curiousity, are the commentators by any chance selected for a specific inability to pronounce names? Easily half the names are pronounced wildly differently by them than one would reasonably expect

    Jama Karaacin, 'who has a history of athletics'. Also known as Jama Aden, who has a history of doping, syringes, EPO, etc. Gotta love it, just change your name and vamos.

    My lord what is happening

    It's Valverde, way too early to call it a career especially since he already said he'll go for 2022 as well
  9. heywoodu
    Damn, nasty nasty fall from Valverde in one of the descents. Seems to be very lucky he stopped sliding in time, otherwise he could have taken a deep tumble downwards, while now he was at least able to climb up (with the help of Rojas) after catching his breath a bit. That right shoulder is gonna be the main issue, seems like a collarbone injury.

    Welcome @Medard81! And welcome @Noorderling29!

    A bit surprising?! Wow, that is something I had never in my life expected, I'd have been more than a bit surprised already if there even was a Dutch participant The final will be tomorrow I assume? Any idea around which time? I want to watch that!

    He could try and go the Virginia Fuchs/Laurence Vincent-Lapointe way, considering the contaminated batch and/or cancer medicine in the pasta sauce defenses probably won't hold with a variety of different substances

    That will depend on the athletes. The current Olympic RS:X champion took a quick trip to iQFOiL in between Rio and Tokyo and immediately won European gold before going straight back to RS:X and the road to Tokyo

    And this was a really cool one! I honestly did not expect him to win when the main pack was only half a minute behind at the bottom

    The 'hero' for Thomaz de Moraes if I'm not mistaken We're cheering for Thomaz here, since he's representing the Brazilian winter sports world in these Summer Paralympics, and might have a (especially for Brazil) rare chance to win a medal at the Summer and Winter Olympics consecutively!

    Apparently they've done six races already. Luuc van Opzeeland leading the men's competition, Helene Noesmoen in the lead in the women's field. https://filedn.com/lp10qwAOmmwFb3gmBWF0wyf/iQFoil/2021-WC-Men.htm https://filedn.com/lp10qwAOmmwFb3gmBWF0wyf/iQFoil/2021-WC-Women.htm

    I don't think so. All these links do nothing, basically: https://onb.iqfoilclass.org/worlds2021/index.php/en/# The intention for today is to sail four races back to back, so let's see.
  18. heywoodu
    Just whoever is in the WhatsApp groups but that doesn't seem like a reliable way to make an entry list With the results here you can at least get some names: https://iqfoilclass.org/worlds2021/2021/08/18/day-2-a-little-tease-from-the-maloja-wind/ It was also just announced that racing will start as scheduled today
  19. heywoodu
    So far, wind is preventing any form of racing in the first two days, other than a 'fun speed competition' which was of course nothing official.
  20. heywoodu
    @MHSN Any word anywhere on Ali Ghasem Babaei? Looked like he made some sort of missed step in the 100m heats, but continued, and then got injured worse. Looked....odd, but also very painful

    It was about 'this will not be good for Paris 2024 because a historic sport will not be on the program', which led to how it most likely won't matter at all for Paris 2024 as a whole.
  22. heywoodu
    Literal elimination race in the men's U23?
  23. heywoodu
    Somehow I am assuming live streams are as per usual geoblocked here because somethingsomething has the rights and won't show it? Edit: Hold on, the morning session is actually available on YT
  24. heywoodu
    And always things of which you just know that somewhere in the past few years he said something that suggests the complete opposite But good for him, after almost falling into nothingness, his Fox buddies managed to get the yelling grandpa some attention again
  25. heywoodu
    Absolutely, but I think it's fair to say weightlifting is, globally speaking, just not a huge sport in terms of viewing numbers. There's a strong and dedicated following, but I truly wonder which percentage of all the Olympic viewers watched even one second of weightlifting in the past few Olympics.
