#but nordic combined is one of the core winter sports
Next Friday, the IOC board will decide whether combined for women will be on the Olympic program in 2026. American Bill Demong, who has both World Cup and Olympic gold and is a board member of the US Ski Association, fears that the sport will instead be completely removed from the Olympics . - What I hear clearly through back channels is that the solution to create gender balance is that they remove combined for men from the Olympic program in 2026, Demong says to the news agency AP.
Okay so their solution to equality is basically ending the sport for both genders?! How on earth does that make sense …
