When Jean Baptist Grange was asked by Swedish TV how he would celebrate this he said that he cannot say that in television:)

Quasi dimenticato che :)
E 'meno di 3 mesi fino al momento.
Alcuni anni fa hanno avuto una fase in cui avrebbero dovuto moto in salita un pist slalom!
Purtroppo, ha nevicato molto quel giorno così hanno cambiato la pista

Questa settimana iniziano a Falun i campionati mondiali di sci nordico. Purtroppo non abbiamo piu' i campioni di una volta, oggi norvegesi, russi e svedesi ci bastonano. Solo nello sprint abbiamo un giovane campione, Federico Pellegrino, che ha vinto tre gare in Coppa del Mondo.

Non così bene per gli sciatori.

Mi ricordo come un bambino che avevamo sci di legno "cerato" con catrame.
Analogamente, nel servizio militare. Erano chiamati il Flash Bianca :)

I miei sci Karrhu sono scalinati nel fondo in modo da permettermi di andare in salita fino a una certa pendenza. Poi devo mettere le pelli, che non sono piu' di foca (seal) ma sintetiche. In discesa le tolgo e scendo a spazzaneve (snow plough). Questo finche' ho pottuto andare a sciare. I miei sci da discesa sono Kneissl lunghi 2.10 metri e li ho comperati a Cervinia nel 1971 da un amico guida e maestro di sci. Oggi tutti ridono quando li vedono, ma sono ottimi sci.

Karhu cieli dalla Finlandia. Hanno anche vendere vecchi cieli Karhu sulle aste :)

"Karhu" means bear in Finnish. The Finn Juha nickname "Karhu" Mieto also used those skies.
Juha "Karhu" Mieto won five medals at the Winter Olympics, and became the World's Cross Country Ski Champion 1974.
Mieto, 2 meters tall and weighing 100 kg, are a bear of a man and everyone in the cross country ski world wanted to be like him.
He is still chopping wood 4 hours a week, his hobby. "I have wood so I can handle me four years without cutting it."
"Perkele!"

My Karhu skis have more modern bindings, but they have no safety feature, like downhill skis have. So the first time I put them on I hurt myself, luckily only slightly, no fracture. Then I understood I needed more caution on them.

There are safe ways to ski with cross country skies downhill.
Telemark skiing is skiing with "free heel". Telemark skiers uses bindings where the boot is only attached to the ski at the toes, just like cross country skies.
http://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Telemark_(sci)
Note. When you turn you push the lower ski in front of the upper ski.
The opposite of 'modern' slalom.

btw, my mother bought slalom skies in Austria in the mid sixties where both toes and heals where fixed to the ski. No safety features at all.

I was taught Telemark but never really mastered it. I just saw a Norwegian girl win the first sprint. The second is a Swede, the third another Norwegian.
Men: 1 Norway, 2 Canada, 3 Norway.
Federico Pellegrino is fifth in classic skiing. He prefers free skiing.

Marit Björgen Norway are probably the best female skier ever.
She is aiming to take 6 gold medals in this Championship.
So that Stina Nilsson Sweden come second is a feat. She 13 years younger than Marit.
Petter Northug Norway also took mens gold in the sprint.

Do I need to say that cross country skiing is a national sport in Norway?

Norway has also good alpine skiers like Svindal and Jansrud. Sweden had the great Stenmark and now has good female skiers. But the Wurld Cup this year is restricted to Tina Maze and Anna Fenninger, probably the best skier.

La combinata nordica è uno sport invernale in cui gli atleti competono sia nello sci di fondo e salto con gli sci. Evento sportivo molto strano.

I norvegesi ora iniziano lamentarsi seguendo i risultati del concorso di oggi.
"Gli organizzatori dovrebbero essere in grado di preparare pista meglio di questo. E 'dopo tutto un campionato del mondo. È un fiasco", ha detto Klemetsen dalla Norvegia a NRK.

Io dico che è 3 gradi Celsius e la stessa per tutti e la Norvegia è ancora vincente.

Ieri sera ho visto una tedesca vincere il salto dal trampolino davanti a una giapponese e una austriaca. Ma mi chiedo se la pista di discesa del trampolino, rifatto nuovo per questi campionati, fosse di neve o di plastica. A me pareva di plastica.
