Haven't heard much from Bode Miller these days, kind of surprised he's still racing.

I wonder if he's the only real Winter Olympian to get his name of a video game.

I wish they would zoom out on those perpendicular shots so you can accurately see the steepness of the course. It's hard to get a perspective on it.

I am watching women's slope style semis on TSN right now. Canadian girl slipped right before her jump and was flying threw the air basically out of control but managed to survive.

Hudec is ahead of Nyman now.

That course. I feel like I'm holding my breath their whole trip down, hoping they don't crash.

That is one helluva workout.

But it is also the skiing style I like(d) best when I was young.

Point and go.

Switching between women's slopestyle and men's downhill.

Yay cause skiers are overlapping a bit so they show the start and then jump to the middle

It sounds like they don't have coverage for one of the top portions of the course, so I guess they've added a video delay in somewhere to add that skip?
