Monzanator 3,594 Posted February 20, 2022 #1112 Share Posted February 20, 2022 Liensberger was faster than Duerr on the blue course. Almost impossible for Germany to win this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shiffrin isn't the 's best women's parallel skier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heywoodu 13,552 Posted February 20, 2022 #1115 Share Posted February 20, 2022 That was an excellent attempt by Schmid! But just shy. And Strolz does it, three golds in three events, and today gold after losing every single one of his races maestro 1 If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated!

Monzanator 3,594 Posted February 20, 2022 #1116 Share Posted February 20, 2022 Austria wins in lieu of the total time rule. You could literally DNF both runs on the red course and win all the ties based on two wins from the blue course. A complete joke. USA putting Shiffrin on the red course in QF, SF & small final was clearly a big mistake. maestro, hckošice and FireRun 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vinipereira 3,054 Posted February 20, 2022 #1117 Share Posted February 20, 2022 So a DNF doesn't factor in at all in this event when there's a tie? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I highly doubt that. she was the only one on the red course getting very close to win a race let me show you guys some statstics , if we don't count CHN vs SUI . we had only and only one win from the red course (beside DNF wins) and that solitary win belongs to Shiffrin against Slovakia. I somehow think she was the best skier today Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, it's fastest men's and women's. This event is more or less a two person show when courses are this uneven. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Attachment is the great fabricator of illusions; reality can be obtained only by someone who is detached. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
