Live Thread of events going on now and what everyone is watching.

First jump of two of the Men's Normal Hill Ski Jumping. (TSN)

FIFTY guys qualified for the final.. the 4 Canadians didn't make it.

Ski jumping is hilarious. All these close to anorexic dudes flying 100 meters in wind catching suits and landing all within around 5 meters of each other.

I guess this is why we only get to "enjoy" it every four years.

It would be way cooler if they had clear a gap and then ride it out in the mogul run.

[GirlySports]

It's sort of like gymnastics with judges looking at the routine and landing.

I like ski jumping It takes a lot of skill to do what they do

[FiftyBelow]

I'm really enjoying the comments from Kucera and Vanderbeek. They really give great perspective and insight into how dangerous downshill skiing is. For athletes, they're actually really well spoken.

That was a cool first round.. the swiss guy in first has two point lead... is that alot?
Everyone else is bunched up.

We should have a daily thread talking about the events of that day.

Which site has the best schedule for the events?

Ugh. so confused. not sure to watch CTV or TSN.

[Yamer]

Looks like the Swiss just won a Gold in Men's Ski Jumping.

[wpgflamesfan]

If you've got bell turn to channel 993 as it gives you feeds from ctv, tsn, snet, rds, v-mtl & aptn so you can see/hear whats on each channel.

http://www.ctvolympics.ca/tv-online-listings/index.html

This is the listing I am using. Shows TSN, SNET and CTV programming.

Apparently the speed skating is starting in about twenty minutes.

[GirlySports]

I think you always watch TSN or sportsnet.. whatever they're showing they will show in its entirety. They showed the entire ski jumping? 81 jumps

CTV will jump around everywhere and have news.

The Polish Batman is an awesome nickname! He got silver

That last jump was huge! Love seeing the last guy win it with the biggest jump. Great performance, what the games are all about.

For me the games are all about what happened immediately after the jump. Did you see all the other countries congratulating the swiss on an amazing jump?
