 Poster: A snowHead
|
Now that I'm back home, with Eurosport in front of me, I'm obviously watching the skiing (enjoyed the biathlon this morning).
Just watched a great crash/recovery from Dixon on the top seciton of the course. Very entertaining, a shame he couldn't stay on-course though... still, a fun spin.

Same place, same problem... Bode shows why he's probably a great. What a recovery. 
Here's the thing: I looked up, saw the incident and thought, "Wow." Then saw it was Miller on the clock, so kind of lost the feeling of awe...

The gates:length of course ratio. A little tighter with more gates than DH.
Fantastic run from Svindal.

Osbourne-Paradis with a great crash - happened to be listening to some music that fitted in perfectly with the replay.  I feel okay enjoying it, as he seemed to be fine after they'd untangled him.

I missed the end of the Super-G, did the Herminator finish second? If so, another terrific result for him.

Not those of us who don't have satellite TV  Sodding C4 seems to have abandoned winter sports, and the BBC is unlikely to go back to old-style Ski Sunday.

rob@rar, You are in lcck ski sunday will consist of two shoes every sunday from jan 18th I think first one at 6ish is all ski racing and a second one later with Bell and that irratating Co*k on the snowboard faffing about. (I have nothing against snowboarders I just hate that irritating Co*k)

And love to help out and answer questions and of course, read each other's snow reports.

Chasseur, indeed he did. What a fantastic effort from him. Unfortunately for Maier, Svindal is skiing like a demon in the speed events so far.
What a cracking weekend it was, plenty of skiing. Exciting alpine skiing and I do enjoy watching the biathlon.

Ordhan,
I don't call no ski racing on TV until 18th Jan "being in luck" (or even "being in lcck") - And I suspect that the quantity of coverage will be rather less than was previously available on C4.
Quite agree about that irritating C*CK though

yep - best race i've seen in a long time - a great combo of skill and fitness
GS was great too - I wonder if the other racers would be as quick as miller if they took as many risks?

rob@rar, You know what you have to do - get an old analogue sat receiver (v.cheap on ebay or local rags), dish and hey presto - Eurosport on the german astra sattelite.

FAQ
Just a comment that they should delineate the desired racing line, and that it is unadvisable to lead into a whacking great jump with a honking great straight section to build up speed
