https://www.j2ski.com/ski-chat-forum/posts/list/15.page Latest messages posted in the topic "Sochi Skier/boardercross" This course is insane. Just watching the boarder solo runs competing for starting positions. Already two crashes and they haven't started the event proper yet. <br /> This looks unnecessarily dangerous to me. https://www.j2ski.com/ski-chat-forum/posts/preList/15078/142297.page https://www.j2ski.com/ski-chat-forum/posts/preList/15078/142297.page Sun, 16 Feb 2014 08:09:19 GMT It does look fairly "exciting" but fingers crossed for no more crashes (well, injuries at least). https://www.j2ski.com/ski-chat-forum/posts/preList/15078/142301.page https://www.j2ski.com/ski-chat-forum/posts/preList/15078/142301.page Sun, 16 Feb 2014 08:45:55 GMT What happens if no one finishes one of the heats? https://www.j2ski.com/ski-chat-forum/posts/preList/15078/142302.page https://www.j2ski.com/ski-chat-forum/posts/preList/15078/142302.page Sun, 16 Feb 2014 09:06:00 GMT <blockquote> <div> <cite>andyhull wrote:</cite>What happens if no one finishes one of the heats?</div> </blockquote> <br /> That's easy. The IOC will then offer the Gold to any skiers named Emily who should have been at the Games... but the BOA will turn the medal down on the grounds that it's not credible... :evil: <br /> <br /> But back to reality... Zoe Gilling's in the third quarter final and needs to finish in the top 3 to progress to the semis. Given the "rate of attrition" we've seen in previous games, she's gotta be in with a shout... GO ZOE! https://www.j2ski.com/ski-chat-forum/posts/preList/15078/142303.page https://www.j2ski.com/ski-chat-forum/posts/preList/15078/142303.page Sun, 16 Feb 2014 09:15:48 GMT Ah damn that was close... Most exciting heat so far though. Zoe must be gutted but a good run. https://www.j2ski.com/ski-chat-forum/posts/preList/15078/142305.page https://www.j2ski.com/ski-chat-forum/posts/preList/15078/142305.page Sun, 16 Feb 2014 09:52:44 GMT She's happy. https://www.j2ski.com/ski-chat-forum/posts/preList/15078/142306.page https://www.j2ski.com/ski-chat-forum/posts/preList/15078/142306.page Sun, 16 Feb 2014 10:04:07 GMT :lol: <br /> <br /> Happy to still be alive... <br /> <br /> Exciting racing though; enjoyed that. Looking forward to the Men's event tomorrow. https://www.j2ski.com/ski-chat-forum/posts/preList/15078/142308.page https://www.j2ski.com/ski-chat-forum/posts/preList/15078/142308.page Sun, 16 Feb 2014 10:38:06 GMT He men's event is likely to be closer, with more potential for crashes. https://www.j2ski.com/ski-chat-forum/posts/preList/15078/142309.page https://www.j2ski.com/ski-chat-forum/posts/preList/15078/142309.page Sun, 16 Feb 2014 11:05:34 GMT Better find something else to do today, they're fogged in and it doesn't look like anything will be happening on the mountain. <br /> The men's snowboard seedings runs have already been cancelled (seeded by world ranking instead). https://www.j2ski.com/ski-chat-forum/posts/preList/15078/142325.page https://www.j2ski.com/ski-chat-forum/posts/preList/15078/142325.page Mon, 17 Feb 2014 08:13:47 GMT Much better conditions today's for the men's skier cross. Some huge jumps in the seedings runs. They're making it look tricky running one by one. Going 6 abreast is going to be interesting! https://www.j2ski.com/ski-chat-forum/posts/preList/15078/142422.page https://www.j2ski.com/ski-chat-forum/posts/preList/15078/142422.page Thu, 20 Feb 2014 08:08:25 GMT <blockquote> <div> <cite>andyhull wrote:</cite>Going 6 abreast is going to be interesting!</div> </blockquote> <br /> Isn't it just? Some impressive runs in the seeding. <br /> <br /> <a href="http://www.j2ski.com/ski-chat-forum/posts/list/0/15102.page" target="_new" rel="nofollow">Today's schedule just posted here</a> https://www.j2ski.com/ski-chat-forum/posts/preList/15078/142432.page https://www.j2ski.com/ski-chat-forum/posts/preList/15078/142432.page Thu, 20 Feb 2014 09:20:20 GMT
