The Beijing 2022 Winter Olympic Games Thread 🔥🥇🥈🥉

[frink85]

depends on who it is and the event.. a lot easier to do in track since you can clearly see people better throughout and down the final 100

but swimming you can see people just not as easily.. you can look but it’ll throw body positioning off.. so either you just check whatever side you’re breathing on in freestyle or just push off on your side on turns and try to check as much as you can during your underwater phase

but usually you’re just kinda building throughout without pushing it pushing it.. with relays you’re making sure all starts are super safe, so you’ll see slower reaction times in the prelims from the top teams.. but for thone relays, theyre saving their top guys and the ones in the morning are trying earn 1 or 2 of the spots in the final team

Gotcha, thanks. Now that you mention it I always thought it was funny you could sub in and out from your relay teams. Like let the second string qualify for the final then here comes Michael Phelps to get the glory but I guess it’s better to not tire out the big stars

The 3 Ball boys should've been in this for US 3x3 team with Big Var as the coach, would've been so much hype for the new sport

You can tell that this Weyant girl cleans up nice.

Great effort for the youngster. Can't be mad at a silver.

edit:



Who are the current top 3 players in the Big3? Cube would have a ****load of free press if he somehow got his league involved in 2024.

way different pace and rules

Tirico was talking so damn fast, did I hear that right? They moved up surfing because better waves from the incoming Typhoon? That's a nice element.
