RobtheAggie 337 Posted April 14, 2021 #511 Share Posted April 14, 2021 I think it has to do with funding and guarenteed starts on the WC circuit. if you look at this past season, Paul Schommer, although I love his Youtube channel where he and Jake Brown have so really fun an interesting behind the scenes things, was #4 on the men's team. Maddie Phaneuf also had a strong IBU Cup season, but she was #5 on the women's team, same with Max Durtschi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Per the USBA in a facebook post - "A1, 2 and 3 teams are differentiated by slightly different funding and camp structures." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobtheAggie 337 Posted April 16, 2021 #514 Share Posted April 16, 2021 Good article about the improvements at Lake Placid. Also - this is an old French commercial with biathlon in it. It is every snarky comment about biathlon made by dumb journalists come true. I speak french, and still have no idea what the point of this commercial is.

It’s an advert for a trashy action & crime TV channel. “If we did sport, this is what it would be like.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
