Baller disland Posted December 13, 2011 Baller Share Posted December 13, 2011 We think we have it bad with the IWWF, These FIS guys are completely out of touch and a trying their best to ruin alpine skiing. http://skiracing.com/?q=node/11096 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dusty Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 That's what I hear (repeatedly) from parents of junior racers. Appears selections arenot simply performance based- politics are often (usually) involved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller MattP Posted December 13, 2011 Baller Share Posted December 13, 2011 @disland at least they have a functional website. You do not think that there are not any politic involved with junior and junior ski teams? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller disland Posted December 13, 2011 Author Baller Share Posted December 13, 2011 my comments are around the FIS mandating a 20 year back track in skis for GS competition (see link). It would be like IWWF requiring all water skis to be made only of fiberglass Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller MattP Posted December 13, 2011 Baller Share Posted December 13, 2011 Thats crazy but if people are so mad about it. 1. do something about it. 2. start another federation. Did the Pro's not have a say in this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller Marco Posted December 13, 2011 Baller Share Posted December 13, 2011 Bode says he doesn't like it and is considering retiring instead of taking a 20 year step backwards... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller ral Posted December 13, 2011 Baller Share Posted December 13, 2011 FIS has already given some hints on banning skiers that criticize this or other rulings using social as well... All skiers believe this is crazy. Take a look at http://www.tedligety.com/, 11 | 22 | 2011 posting. 20 years ago, I skied with FIS approved GS skis. Today I would not even think about it.
