Latvian skier Vīgants faced disappointment following his performance in the sprint event, as he finished over 18 seconds behind the best time and failed to progress to the quarter-finals. He described the course as difficult, featuring two technical climbs, which may have hindered his performance, despite noting that the skis and track quality were adequate. Vīgants reflected on the unexpected margin of his defeat, hinting at the challenges of competitive sprinting.

Other team members, including Saulītis and Kaparkalējs, also shared their thoughts on their performances. Saulītis expressed dissatisfaction with his debut, finishing 84th out of 89 competitors, and suggested that he may have made a poor choice in ski selection, despite feeling physically prepared. Kaparkalējs mentioned the dynamic nature of the course and opted for a safer ski choice, reporting an adequate performance overall.

Vīgants, the leader of the men's team, emphasized the preference for freestyle skiing among Latvians, contrasting it with classic skiing, which he noted has caused difficulties for some athletes, including fellow competitors. His remarks reflect a broader sentiment within the team as they look forward to future events where they hope to showcase their strengths in freestyle skiing rather than classic.
