SVT's expert Björn Ferry wrote a column on Sunday with the call "Stop whining!"
as a simpler solution to the postponed ban on flour.
"
When it comes to the World Cup, my suggestion is that the IBU provides skis that are raffled off just before the start and returned after the finish.
These skis accompany the whole circus.
Deviating pairs (good or bad) are removed from the ski park, all so that there is as little difference as possible between different pairs.
The draw means that regardless of the small differences, it is perceived as more fair by the riders.
It will also be fairer between nations.
Right now the conditions are completely different as only a handful of countries can afford trucks, ramparts and lots of staff.
", He wrote, among other things.
Not current at autumn level
Olle Dahlin, chairman of the IBU, calls the idea healthy but does not see it as relevant at the very highest level where sport is a profession.
- The ski itself is very crucial.
Getting in external stuff that can determine the end result, I see a danger in. Björn himself uses the word lottery and we absolutely do not want any kind of lottery when it comes to the result, says Dahlin in Vinterstudion.
Dahlin, on the other hand, thinks that the proposal could be applied to, for example, the youth side.
- It is perhaps an interesting opportunity more from a recruitment and breadth point of view so that we do not have a cost problem to recruit for our sport, he says.
The flour measurement instrument is being developed
The flour ban, which was supposed to take effect this season, has been postponed for a year and Olle Dahlin views positively the development of the measuring instrument that will detect cheating.
- We are working intensively to develop the scanner to reduce the risk of there being cheating with the skis.
The idea is that the team will have the opportunity to get acquainted with the equipment after the season.
