Jur 508 Posted July 18, 2018 #92 Share Posted July 18, 2018 They really did Telemark dirty. Come on, it was something new! I'm really sad it didn't make the cut... Olympian1010 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, and not after only a handful of years. 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!

I'm not 100% behind IOC changes either (those mixed events are mostly unnecessary and will only be good for the top nations anyway), but at least they're trying to add new things (and nothing extremely radical like what happens on YOG). For some opinions here, it looks like 3 or 4 more women's events will completely ruin the Winter Olympics NearPup 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dcro 10,179 Posted July 18, 2018 #99 Share Posted July 18, 2018 So apparently alpine combined is not out? So much for @heywoodu's statement about Gisin being Olympic champion for all times. I'm quite happy that they didn't go for that parallel/city/boring event and whatnot. Quasit and NearPup 2 #banbestmen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
