Pretty decent first day for us. 2 boats straight trough and the lightweight both seem pretty likely to be able to join after the repechages.

Tomorrow Lærke and Christina should be able to fight for direct qualification while it will also be interesting to see how Fie will do (she has had some back problems meaning lower expectations) and also the W2x

Sinković brothers dominated in their heat of men's pairs. This is only their first year in this boat, previously they competed in double sculls (where they are Olympic champions in fact).

 

Btw, :VIN Saint Vincent and the Grenadines already look like a very good candidate for Tripartite invitation at the next Olympics.  Would be refreshing to see them outside of athletics/swimming for the first time ever. :)

I wonder if that is their athlete who got a tripartite invitation to the Youth Olympics next year?

    • I'm all in favor of this and it was about time. Wrestling has become table tennis 2.0 and in some cases even worse. In European Championships from 20 wrestlers in a weight you were seeing 7-8 foreigners. Yes, it's mostly Russians, but there are also Ukrainians, Georgians, Cubans being naturalized.    I've said it numerous times, that i don't approve the tactic our federation started of naturalizing people left and right. Which actually wasn't paying off that much, until the Olympics. If it leads to worse results, than it's just a wakeup call for the destruction of our wrestling system (which has been evident for 15 years).

    • New season streams are posted for the weekend if you need to get your schedule organised.     Remember, it's a double bill from Pyeongchang  on Saturday and Sunday this weekend, then a single race from  next weekend. No bobsleigh yet, so I guess they will get double races with no skeleton later in the season.      There were two Asian Cup races on the Pyeongchang track last weekend, and another scheduled for tomorrow, so no excuses for poor performance, everybody should be used to it by now.     IBSF Bobsleigh & Skeleton - YouTube
    • races also on Saturday and Sunday.  These are sometimes FTA, other times you will need your VPN.   Skidskytte: Idre | SVT Play
    • So here we are....pre-season races ready to go.  Always important for the big teams to get some last minute promotions for the first trio of pre-Christmas World Cup races, or even for club skiers to get some kind of promotion into a professional training group.      races on Saturday and Sunday morning.  Usually these are globally free to air live, although you sometimes have to wander round a bit to find the right link.   Sport - NRK TV
    • Anyway, for those who were following this discussion a few weeks ago,  has an excellent chance of first-ever World Cup podiums, possibly even wins, this weekend.  Roche Silveira won and was second in two full-scale rehearsal races last weekend, and has two chances in Pyeonchang on Saturday and Sunday. Then Pinheiro Braathen has another chance in the Levi slalom on Sunday.
