For people who watch sports apparantly for most of your spare time, you guys have a very thin skin. Winter sports is always about weather conditions. How could olympics not? Women's Slopestlye - yeah that wasn't fair. Rest difficult but as fair as possible under the circumstances.

I'm disappointed Mayer didn't pull off a double cork there.

Not just that. Scheduling. Scheduling. Scheduling.

 

Also 80 secs downhill is definitely not fair in a combined race.

It's just not fun when a competition has absolutely single flow in it, like the men's ski jumping that took forever and never really got going, or now this farce of a combined with barely any serious downhill (only made serious because the wind is basically too dangerous for a competition), slopestyle was horrible indeed. 

 

Of course it's often about weather, but when that gets too much, that doesn't make it fun.

Totally agree about schedulng issue. But we need to deal with it. I watch the events one by another, not parallel, so there's no real difference to me

I really like this course, i think they should use it on thursday too or even better just use today's results as official downhill results, given that it would be too dangerous to send everyone down a second time.

Great, looks like course now became slower.

Imagine if Hirscher wouldn’t luck out with his bib for once.
