>Norway won what could be the last medal in Nordic combined.>In 2022, the IOC said that Nordic combined, which made its Olympic debut in the first-ever Winter Games in 1924, needed to grow its audience and the range of countries on the podium in order to be included in the 2030 Olympics.Greedy norwegians killed the sport
>>153562073wtf i thought it was a relatively new meme sport
>>153562139You fell for the "noko" meme ?Here we have a gold medalist from 1992 they can't stop talking about, like if it was a main event.
>>153562327no i think its a total joke a sport
>>153562073>Greedy norwegians killed the sportThe real reason is that FIS doesn't have Nordic combined competitions for women. The IOC said all sports have to have events for women or else the sport will be kicked out of the Olympics, simple as.
>>153562481Bro there is a women WC, in fact the only place where it doesn't exist is the olympic games lol, it's entirely IOC's fault for not including them
Fucking feminst society
>>153562568It's the same thing they did to 50m pistol (the oldest of all shooting events) in the Summer Olympics. The ISSF holds women's competitions internationally, and even suggested making the Olympic event mixed so as to not increase the number of total athletes. The IOC kept it as men only anyway and then used that as justification to remove it.
The IOC can be swayed if they are "lobbied" (bribed) enough by the sport federations
