Skaslien saves the end, but with Nedregotten starting to play like an amateur there is only so much she can do.

Norwegians continuing with the disasterous play...

Imagine the surprise for all those users who have set the alarms to 3 AM for nothing.

Strong winds apparently. It's already postponed for at least one day. However, based on official forecast they already cancelled men's combined downhill training on Monday, so it may be postponed by more than one day http://www.fis-ski.com/alpine-skiing/news-multimedia/news/article=men-olympic-downhill-rescheduled.html

It's actually everyone that usually gets the 4th run at the Olympics. What a travesty! I hope the Slovak lugers are mistaken.

To be honest it's the European broadcasters that made a bigger mess...

It was a pretty fun day in general. Cross-country skiing: An interesting race for a change. This is becoming a tradition, WC is so boring with 15 Norwegians in Top 10 , but at the big events (Olympics in particular) it gets more interesting. Very happy for Krista's bronze medal. Biathlon: Didn't have an opportunity to watch too much of it, but it was somehow underwhelming. Dahlmeier deserved the gold I guess, but both Olsbu and Vitkova's medals were somewhat anticlimactic as they were both quite early in the starting order. Again an Olympic heartbreak for Kaisa. Speed skating: Dutch sweep, but very enjoyable race. The event of the day for me. Achtereekte was amazing. Short track: Sad for Hungary not getting a medal (again), and the final with 9 racers was too much. Luge: Difficult track provided both exciting and cruel competition. Great runs for Gleirscher, Mazdzer, Edney, K-Fisch and Aparjods. Heartbreaks for Ninis, West, Morris, and Kindl/D-Fisch to a lesser extent... Quite a few wild rides from less experienced sliders. Ski jumping: Weather conditions and jury pretty much sucked any value out of those Olympic medals. Ice hockey: Watched SWE vs JPN. It wasn't that bad actually. Curling: Norway struggling against eliminated teams (barely defeating FIN and losing to USA ). I hope they won't destroy all the great work from previous matches.

A thread for your own reviews of each Olympic day.

And yes, big unnecessary delays in snowboarding.

So far... Ski jumping competition (duh!) Awful (often not working) website Curlers being late to the venue with their transport

Not having this thread in Rio was quite annoying...

Well this is a very anticlimactic ending...

He had the 3rd worst wind in the second series...

Hopefully Hula won't flop.

How on earth did ski jumping function before they introduced wind/gate compensations?

Lowering the gate in 3... 2... 1...

Not as long as he is getting a blanket and a massage from Hofer.

On the plus side, now we have a story for our future grandchildren.

It can actually be fun if the commentator is fun like the one I'm listening to.

It's so awful that it's becoming rather epic.

This is rumoured to be the first ski jumping competition in history that will be held into the midnight.

Apparently it's -11 degrees.

This calls for a bonus live bet question: Normal Hill competition will be during two days. YES/NO
