Ski cross is awesome, first time i have really watched it and i need to read up on the rules.

Whats the score with contact? Can you just wipe out your opponent?

Great night of ski coverage tonight. The womens downhill will take some beating. Its just such a shame there is not regular coverage (outside of the olympics) of the world cup events on the BBC. Ski Sunday should be extended to a 1 hour show throughout the whole season. :cry:

Skier cross is very exciting stuff. Love it.
I just love the gravitational pull

You can ski into the back of someone.
You can ski into the side of someone, from either side, take him out if you feel so inclined.
You can deliberately slow down, so the guy behind you crashes, trying to avoid you.

I found myself shouting, screaming, whooping, cheering and hiding my hands behind my face watching this tonight, it was brilliant.
I love the boarder cross, but this is something I can feel more connected with being a skier, and these guys are insane.
I was in ADH when Graham Bell did that race, I may have mentioned it before. I watched some of the races and it was superb.

Real racing - rather than the time trial that the regular Alpine events are.

I don't mean to knock the bravery of the downhillers but the skier cross racers are right up with the skeleton and ski jumpers for bravery & insanity!
