I have followed it few years.
Amazing 1,5h effort race. With stunning technical skill involved.
Matthiew Van der Poel took men's series leader jersey after Nove Mesto short track race.
What you think of that short track add anyway?
Little dog fight for me. Attempt to make good discipline even better. Also rules. You are forced to take part of it..because other way you will start further back at main race. Even worse ..without short track points you wont be able to win World cup.
Fun year we have.
Absalone retired. Nino is good as always.
Young guys coming..van der Poel (xC ace, who are after xco Olympic medal), Gaze (arrogant, fast new generation star..who is still very fragile person), Mathias Flueckiger looking good, Cooper, Carod, Morotte..will be fun season.
Who are interested can follow sunday Nove Mesto live and replay at redbull TV.
One of the best atmosphere races.
Very interesting weekend at Nove Mesto.
Both finishes decided by sprint. This sport is changing.
Many young gun did not survived. Gaze and Van der Poel crashed himself out.
First year I'm watching the season, and I'm really enjoying it. Schurter seems the strongest, but not as explosive as Gaze and Van der Poel, but their lack of experience may be costing them a lot.
Short track races are more thrilling tho, and give a lot more space for moves in the standings. Loved Nove Mesto circuit, hope to see more brutal fights as the season pans out. (and I'd like to see VDP winning a World Cup, coming from cyclocross wich I love, I'll always be cheering for him)

Nove Mesto track and atmosphere is just stunning.
Cooper was really great. Nino warned at Stellenbosch, that both Kiwis will be great. He was right.
Nino himself are ace. Yes they can come close one after another and win him with sprint. But no one has he's ability..always be there and fight or the win. Every damn race.
Stability is gold.
Woman's races are also great.
Who starts to fast..who can come back later.
At the moment Neff and Langwald clearly to best ones. Belamoina comig back from injury.
Langwald is strongest..but he lack's technical skill. Would have won world cup year ago, but wet surface just destroying he's ability. Like we did see also at Germany.
Now Nino should be worried. How Gerhard Kerschbaumer cocked him was stunning.
He just climbed away from Nino. Also maybe helped that he was prepeared for altitude race.
Woman's races are fun. here is about 10-12 riders who can win. Old dox got it this time
