Nordic Combined FIS World Cup 2019 - 2020
heywoodu replied to Totallympics's topic in Nordic Combined
We could get an interesting race in Val di Fiemme today. Top-8 is within a minute (NOR/AUT) and Geiger/Riessle are 10-15 seconds behind them. http://medias3.fis-ski.com/pdf/2020/NK/4139/2020NK4139SLCC.pdf -
I get it less for the sliding events by the way. You don't need to show every corner, a handful of cameras is enough and they don't need to be expensive at all - that is, if St Moritz doesn't already have their own camera system they could piggyback on.
-
Then they should stop promoting it like the whole thing is such a big deal. My main issue is with IOC and everyone around it making this seem like a huge deal and bringing it like we can all enjoy all of the sports for two weeks, when in reality we can only see a handful of things and not more than results and some photos for the rest.
-
And not showing a huge part of medal events overall. And fuck equality, let's focus on a handful of sports and show a shitload of it, and totally ignore tons of classic winter sports' medal events.

I just wanted to say 'bib'.
-
France's Catilin McFarlane going to silver with bib 36.
-
Judging by her results, she seems to be better in slalom, so let's wait for that one
-
Aaaaaaaaand it's gone, Amelie Klopfenstein restores some normality
-
Noa Szollos sets the fastest time, defeating among others all the Austrians and Swedes
-
Yeah it's surprisingly not bad. Although I still prefer FIS - bit more functionality and it's the one I'm used to anyway, the official one offers nothing extra to give up the thing I'm used to
-
Wow, Pohjolainen must have made a huge mistake
-
Three North Americans started, none finished.
-
Ok, the super-G is not even close to one minute.
-
The app has no live results and still nothing about the athletes
-
Fairly sure official live timing is the bad thing with this results system, it generally sucks monkeyballs, so here is FIS' live timing for the super-G. http://live.fis-ski.com/lv-al5047.htm#/short
-
It's Youth Olympics/Olympic Channel, all I expect is commentators who do nothing more than mention exactly the things they can read from their pre-prepared papers about the athletes and say super generic stuff about the competition, because they don't know the sport
-
Arber is in no way big enough for a World Cup. Zwiesel is around the corner indeed, all centered around Bodenmais (where the crystal globes are made, fun fact).
-
Two days of action, including a Saturday, and all we see is curling and figure skating. This is ridiculous.
-
Small note: I'd use the 24-hour time system, like it's used on the official results system. Also, I'm missing some names
-
What's up with the alpine skiing having a super-G today and a slalom tomorrow and apart from them just counting as separate medal events, which they also do, they also both count towards a combined ranking?
-
I believe you immediately, but it's just really not in the kind of stuff I watch or read about, so it's quite easy to miss when one barely watches the regular news and so on
-
Yeah, they definitely didn't do that. I've been hearing some monotonous humming for some time now, with what I guess is a performance by the local school kids to try and get a good grade or something?
-
Great, the ceremony didn't include the best part of the ceremony
-
Right, I can't keep up with all that drama. I'll just keep liking songs I like
-
I feel like I'm going to need to hit Google to get to the point
