In skeleton big margins don’t mean as much as the other sliding sports.

Canada's men's team is at an all time low. Just wow.

Well, Silveira solidifies her status as firmly the best Brazilian Winter athlete of this quad.

Not a great fan of Hermann, but a jogger like Loelling losing is always good.

What a surprise ...

1) Are there any German sledding athletes you like?

2) How do you become a fan of a skeleton athlete? They basically have zero TV time ...

all the world cup/world champs races are live and ondemand in crystal clear HD on Youtube...so, they have full time exposure like all the other wintersports athletes (FIS and ISU events are on Eurosport Player, IBSF is on YT, FIL is on their own website)...

 

oh, wait...German TV networks are geoblocking all this stuff to protect their 5-min summaries...

Gassner, Eitberger, Friedrich and Lochner are fine I guess.

 

As for Hermann, she seems to have two moods. Hyper - when she wins. Gloomy - when she is 2nd or lower.
