i'm just saying that for a sport that no one gives a fuck about because it is boring and requires no more technique than long distance running, it sure does have a lot of retarded variations. There should be one short cross country event, one long one, and one biathlon. Nix the relays, the intermediate distances, and the silly "nordic combined" (do we get a "Canadian combined" hockey and curling event) and suddenly snoreway is just another nobody country like they are for the other 3 years and 50 weeks.

There actually should be seperate competitions for 4v4 and 3v3 hockey. And bandy.

Lmao, you're a certified tourist who's never watched a race in your life
You can ski for 30 years and you will never get anywhere close to the technique of the top guys athletes

30% of the planet are gay and/or pedos Sven, look at how fast the /fs/ threads hit the bump limit here compared with other sports.

>requires no more technique than long distance running
Lmao running requires no technique, just put on shoes and run nigga, sure your form will be shit at first but as you run more your body naturally makes you more efficient. Meanwhile give me a pair of skis and I would fall over just walking.

It's only "hard" because the race is hours long and technique starts to falter when you are tired. If the principal technical challenge of your sport is not getting bored, it's not technically difficult. Any other sport in the winter olympics besides sliding and ski jumping (another brainless stat-pad event for norway that no one else cares about) requires 10x the technique of cross country skiing.

>>153584935
yeah that's the point of the survey. mexico and brazil who have no skin in the game are going to give better answers than northern countries.
>>
>>153585267
This is a really stupid way to do a survey
I watch ski jumping, speed skating, alpine skiing, biathlon, cross country skiing, nordic combined and curling regularly
If I answered this survey it would give 100% of my vote to one of these sports even though I enjoy all of them

I imagine the majority of women would answer figure skating in this survey, completely skewing the results
Those are the casuals who don't actually follow winter sports outside of the Olympics

I couldn't give less of a fuck about what Saudis, Colombians, Mexicans and Peruvians have to say about these sports
They don't watch them

It's like letting Iraq, Togo and Uruguay vote to exclude hockey from the Olympics

no fucking way. responders are 100% confusing it with other sports.

>it's not technically difficult
You're clueless
Get back to me when you've taken a single Nordic skiing course in your life
Elite skiers strive their entire careers to polish and perfect their techniques, most of them never accomplish this
Look at someone like Jessie Diggins who won the World Cup last season
Her classical technique is not efficient at all and she's nowhere near the best in diagonal stride, double poling or kick double pole
She's been trying to fix this since she was a child and could never do it before her retirement

Impossible to answer really, we have no clue how long it would take him to get to a decent skill level in shooting
Stina and Anamarija are good examples of some amazing skiers that never mastered the shooting
He definitely wouldn't win a sprint with more than 3 misses, that's almost certain
Getting to 70% accuracy is hard enough on its own and it's not like the top skiers in biathlon are slow either
If his competition hit 80-90% of the targets he'd be fucked in most races

Einar Hedegart was/is a biathlete and he's been extremely competitive in freestyle, beaten Klæbo in most races
He's as fast as Klæbo at everything in a 10km-15km freestyle race other than the finish
Arguably a better climber than Klæbo too
He's done fairly poorly in biathlon so far, can't nail the shooting
