Team GB Daily: Day 11

I’m sorry but I can’t really enjoy an event that lets an 11 year old compete. That’s unethical.

Was wincing just looking at her fall.

 

Creditable performance from Lola as well.

Didn't think the fall itself looked TOO bad, so hopefully it's 'just' sore and she's good to go. Score will definitely hold, so if she's fit to skate, she's in.

It's not the fact that the fall itself was bad but more the fact that it was the shoulder that she's already got issues with that took the brunt of it! Accumulative damage and all that.

 

She's a tough cookie alright though.

McTwist's allways make me hungry

Aldridge marked as a DNS for the women’s kitesurfing? What’s all that about - she’s second in the standings overall!

[cjsavory 44]

About 8 of them were listed as DNS - no idea what's going on there, though she seems to have retained 2nd in the standings!

Disappointing day so far in the showjumping and diving.

John Gimson and Anna Burnet up into (joint) Bronze position in the Mixed Multihull, with just the medal race to come. Gold is out of reach, but the pair in silver are only six points (three places) ahead of Gimson/Burnet and the NZ pair.

Has anyone got any insider info on why Eurosport's coverage of the Women's Park Skateboarding final keeps being delayed? I'm on the edge of my seat!  

 

Update: it's on now, but I missed the first five mins.
