Kyle just needs to be in the 120s again and he should be guaranteed a medal, possibly gold.

yeah, that's a huge lead. He just needs to ensure he can be in the 120s...even if he's at 120 exactly, I'm pretty sure he wins gold.

Too bad those other 2 Canadians sucked so bad on their jumps then.

These girls are no good, Korpi will be #1 until about 8:30.

Cause she wasn't supposed to be this low!

Pool maybe? And then once they've mastered the in-air, they move to the real thing? Just a guess...

Yep a pool....CTV showed Trish Stratus practicing it with one of the Canadian jumpers trying to show her what to do. She didn't look good.

129.27 for Warren on the 2nd jump! Wow. (I know the DD was higher but still).

Poor Shouldice. Had he not screwed up his first jump, he'd be in metal competition.

Aerials is a pretty impressive sport, but to me all these jumps look the same.

Most of them are the same lol. Full double full full. You think they could be a little more imaginative with the names...
