Yeah, I like watching downhill skiing too. Bout the only thing I like to watch during the winter olympics.

All balls and technique...no endzone dancing, fake injuries or other bullshit. You, the mountain and the clock.

I was snowboarding just around the corner from there and didn't even know it was going on...

Conditions aren't great, but it sure is fun to watch.

Are you talking about downhill ski racing? Check out freestyle that shit is way better. Big mountain is incredible.

Just watched the ladies downhill from Canada. Tina maze is looking good,real good.

Something so sexy about beautiful women hucking themselves off a mountain.

Freestyle blows,just like moto Freestyle.

Von won that 2nd downhill in Canada with all USA on the podium,1st time ever.

Von is 3 away from being top female ever.

Last nite watched men luge and a kid that failed to qualify last week slid last and beat the track record and took 1st by 8 tenths.
1st American to win in 14 yrs I think they said.

That's funny...as a moto guy I've always loved watching ski racing and bobsledding.

I've wanted to bobsled since I was 9 and watched all the 88 olympics from Calgary. Anyway, 2 years ago I went up to the Whistler Sliding Center where they have an experience program for sliding sports and rode down the olympic course. The program sends you down with a professional driver. One of the guys helping when I was there was the real Canadian guy who coached the Jamaicans in 88 and John Candy played in Cool Runnings.
It was a blast but over too fast.

I'd like to just sit on a corn scoop and slide down once.

If you look closely there might be a wardrobe malfunction in there somewhere.
