dcro 10,172 Posted February 11, 2018 #142 Share Posted February 11, 2018 But anyway, these moguls are pretty weird. And somewhat cringeworthy. #banbestmen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

orangeman 1,296 Posted February 11, 2018 #146 Share Posted February 11, 2018 Out at the bar with an American friend watching and he randomly picks the "French one" and the "Cool looking green one" while I, in my infinite knowledge of the sport go with my Canadian girls. He ends up with gold and bronze, me silver. Congrats to all involved, it was a high performance final!

Everyone else stuck with the basic helicopter. Besides the turns are by far most important and the botched landing meant her challenge was over. The poor turns also affected Cox. Because she didn’t want a medal, she wanted gold. I think it’s better to go for it and lose than it is to play it safe and lose. orangeman 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought a bit "safely" as you, his answer has shown me sth...i think we`re wrong... I fell in love with sports.....since i first seen it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought a bit "safely" as you, his answer has shown me sth...i think we`re wrong... But the moguls aren't won on the jumps! They're won on the turns. Laffont gave away 1,2 pts to Dufour-Lapointe on the jumps but made it up on the turns. The difference between the two was the time (0.2 pts). Laffont had the most turns points in the final six and fourth-highest among all three rounds. Btw, Galysheva had the most air points due to her signature front flip. If the moguls would be won on the jumps, she'd be a runaway gold medallist (and we'd see more women doing the front flip in general). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
