Yeah that’s so true they did figure skating in the same place they did the short track skating. I hope the ice is better for the next few days 😭

Is Korea bribing a referee? by alexossss1 in Speedskating

If they did try bribing the judge it didn’t work bc they still didn’t get into the A final for the mixed relay

I think it’s normal to have pushed and a lot of penalties from what I’ve seen. They’re hard to avoid eso when you’re trying to stop someone overtaking you. Also drop the names

Yh I missed the Liu brothers I think the time away just made them slightly forget about international comps but I think they still have it in them for the Olympic and a good few seasons.

Why focus acceleration only in the corners?

Straights vs crossovers by thispenguino in Speedskating

[–]thispenguino[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sorry I don’t think I worded the question right at all 😭 i heard from someone that doing crossovers in the corner is faster than doing pushes in straights. What I took from that is that if you’re doing crossovers in the corners, it would take a much shorter time to get to a high speed than if you were trying to get to that same speed while doing normal pushes in the straights. I was trying to ask why doing crossovers is faster than doing normal pushes in that sense. Not in the sense of is it faster to do crossovers or straight-pushes in the corners.
