Here are a couple of pictures that Austin took at the BKL Festival today. Over 500 kids competed in the great event. Many thanks to Breadloaf and the great organizing commitee (including alum Barney Hodges and his wife Chris). The whole weekend seemed ...
Wow, it's been a couple days since I've managed a post...Birkie Fever will do that to you! In between finishing work and driving up to get the bibs (thanks to the Birkie Office for putting that at Hayward this year), it's a miracle I managed to get u...
I was nervous coming into Birkie week. I think everyone was wondering what the weather was going to do, with having a big warm up the week prior. To add to this, I snapped one of my good race skis a week before the Birkie! But after a last minute trip ...

Wow, what a crazy race! If the mass start events trend toward this kind of stuff, with lots of attacking, I think that’ll only be a good thing for the sport. As it was, the all that action may have turned the results a bit inside out from what people were expecting. I’ll have a [...] Related posts:
After racing the Birkie in Wisconsin yesterday, I hitched a ride to Minneapolis and flew to Europe. It was a pretty crazy move, one that I am temporarily regretting because my legs really seized up in the car and then on the plane, and I am currently unsure whether I will ever be able to [...]
It was a tight finish for the guys freestyle, CXC Bryan Cook was the 1st American, 5th overall. CXC also had the other top U. S. finishes with Brian Gregg 2nd American, 8th overall and Matt Liebsch just a hair off . Result times shown are confusing due to ‘starting gun time’ for the first 6 finishers and ‘chip time’ for all others. complete results Video of [...]
So today was my first World Championships event, and I can say that I am very happy with my result. The conditions were very tough and I think I had a jump that I can be very proud of. I know I am capable of better jumps and I will continue to improve on that. Going into the cross [...]
Once again we have some potentially misleading FIS points, as Bjørgen, Kowalczyk and Johaug skied away from the field a bit. I’ll have a closer look at the results that adjust for this on Monday. It was mostly the usual suspects at the top, but what a race for Maria Rydqvist, though!

With World Championships finally underway in Oslo, things are getting busy again. Here’s what’s been cooking this past week: We had the final World Cup races before WSCs in Drammen; so we had race snapshots for the distance and sprint races, and then the requisite recaps as well. I pulled together a few quick graphs [...] Related posts:
I considered Thursday's freestyle sprints to be hors d'œuvres for the rest of the World Championships, so I was happy the semis and the finals were all excellent competitions - even if the North Americans did not quite ski up to expectations. Marit Bj...
