The snowboard cross relay was fun but the cap on the head start you can earn for the second leg is about the worst rule I have heard of. Canadian wins wis heat by well over 10 seconds and the second leg doesn’t even get a 4 second head start. It’s really mainly a womens competition with their ability to draft and catch up. A small lead at the start is meaningless.
I think a cap makes sense when there's a crash, but not in a clean race.
