Jan Linha 459 Posted January 18, 2022 #77 Share Posted January 18, 2022 After the refusals, is being offered 6th spot for Male skiers. Not sure whether they will accept it. There are several options for Czech to choose. 1) Ondřej Černý - excellent sprinter with great qualification results but always fails in quarterfinals (but not that good stamina and probably not very suitable for team sprint) 2) Tomáš Kalivoda - Can race decent in sprints (already earned points this season) and also in distance races 3) Jonáš Bešťák - average distance racer 4) Tomáš Lukeš - average distance racer. As for me, I would choose either Černý or Kalivoda ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or you are just assuming What I know that they are waiting with the confirmation within some sports as they are expecting reallocation ....... In male CC there are 2 refusals - and ... which should give quota to and ..... I think they were expecting this is gonna come and they will most likely select another racer ..... There are 2 more sports .... as for ski jumping female, is 1st below the line, expecting to select either Stepanka Ptackova or Anezka Indrackova if the reallocation comes .... and in parallel snowboarding - Zuzana Maderova is 3 below the reallocation line ...... The team has been hoping for these 3 reallocation as in other FIS discipline we are far to low to recieve any reallocation ..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
