This is so unfair! Why are they doing this? Anyway, good luck, Sasha!

The Swedish Olympic Committee requires Sasha to earn a minimum of 260 points... I'm in shock... :tumblr_inline_ncmif7esGm1rpglid: :tumblr_inline_ncmif7esGm1rpglid: :tumblr_inline_ncmif7esGm1rpglid: His ISU PB is 228.97 set at CS Warsaw Cup 2016 and his unofficial PB is 246.56 at Winter Universiade 2017.

Wow, how... shortsighted of them. :slinkaway:

I wonder if the Swedish Olympic Committee knows how many skaters have scored 260 or over in competitions that count towards ISU PBs... 

 

ISU Personal Best Scores as of 26.09.2017

  3. Boyang JIN                303.58    
  4. Javier FERNANDEZ  301.19    
  5. Patrick CHAN            295.16    
  6. Nathan CHEN            290.72    
  7. Jason BROWN          269.57

How would it be possible for Sasha to reach 260... :tumblr_inline_mqt4gi2T9v1qz4rgp:

It's not. It's an excuse not to support him and spend money to take him to the Olympics if he gets a spot at Nebelhorn.

...It's very very slimy and backhanded...honestly brutal, and Sasha knows that's the intention. If he fails, they can just paint it as "he didn't have that much of a shot anyways since he could not even rank in the top 20." Honestly Sweden, I love you on many things but on this, I is dissappoint...

That's ridiculous. I'm so angry with them. :free-fighting-smileys-156: Surely, it's better to be represented at the OG than not? And yeah sure, there are probably TONS of skiers they want to support instead, but how will the sport grow in this cold, dark country with loads of rinks (but maybe not that many year-round ones?) if they don't support what they have?
