I feel like this is a passive aggressive sport where you have to restrain everything within you from pushing some racer that’s getting too close

Its a lot more about self restraint, breaking away from the pack too early can and will be the difference of the race.

Not a white sport, the largest demographic in the sport is Asian.

[@CrazeeFy]

Basically all racing events have a "no touching, or tackling" rule. I think it's bad not only because there's people who dislike the aesthetic of it but also because attacking someone actually makes you slower.

Endurance, Apex Momentum and "Fingers Down" Technique which provides stability, within their cornering and drafting which allows the skaters behind to slipstream the others and thats why they stay on each others asses while cornering and then finally winning with an overtake

I am not shocked or amazed that Hamelin took this race! He's amazing! It is evident that Hamelin (both of them, and Canadian team in general) work like crazy to perfect their technique and that they have amazing natural talent.They are determined, powerful, spirited, apparently disciplined, athletes. I wish Canada continued success! The Hamelins make this sport super-duper exciting!! (And, they certainly don't hurt the eyes! ^.^) I also can't wait for 2018!
