Just a heads up for anyone going to Cypress events:

I went to Ladies moguls and the logistics were awful.

Buses:
- The time on your bus ticket does nothing.
- Second, they take away your ticket, so you can take whatever bus you want back, which means everyone will be going to Lonsdale.
- Third, the buses are horribly organized. We were told that they were going to be separated lines, then all at the same place, then separated again.
- They should have dynamically allocated buses based on reservation volume. Lonsdale is the busiest and most efficient but sold out first. Should make the buses go where they are wanted, and since parking passes are separate they could still ensure that they won't run out of parking.

Food:
- I got food before the event, didn't take too long. At least twenty minutes in the line were just because they lost power.
- Between qualification and finals the line was insane. Even if you got in line early you may not have been out by the time it restarted. Lots of shortages, way too few cashiers. Line up obstructed access to pretty much everything else.
- No separate drink sales or vending machines, so you have to line up just to stay hydrated.
- You may or may not have to throw out your food, depending on which security line you're in. Bring food and drink, if you want to watch the event. It's worth a shot. Someone passed out, probably hadn't eaten or drank in hours and I hope she sues VANOC because by not letting people bring their own and not making food and drink reasonably available they are being very negligent.

Warming tent:
- Way, way too small. At least make a defined entrance and exit instead of two generic orifices (that's for fotze).

Hopefully they can fix this before my Men's Halfpipe (and then Men's Aerials), assuming my GA ticket doesn't get cancelled. Other events have been reasonably well executed, but Cypress was not well organized at all.
