The U.S. got gold and bronze in the Women's Moguls. Congrats!!!

Did anybody see that camera angle from the start gate, looking down to the finish line?
Jeez, almost got a nosebleed looking at it 😆 😆
Darn near vertical.

That'd be like skiing down the side of a 100-storey building--with protruding window ledges--and two jumps in the middle.

Barb,
thanks on behalf of us down here. Those young woman made us proud.
When I was much younger (and loved farther north) I loved skiing very fast down mogul-covered slopes. But never like that! The muscle strength to pull that off is astounding.

Tomorrow's men's downhill will be right up your alley then.
😉

BTW, that 2010 link on page 1 gives up-to-date results.

Congrats USA ... on gold AND silver in Women's Downhill today.

Seeing Ms. Vonn cross the finish line with all her weight on her left leg, favoring her injured right leg, was awe-inspiring.

...maybe that was responsible for her spill on Thursday. 😥

Congrats to the US for unseating the Russia gold medallist in men's skating.
...wonder if there's a French judge this year 😆

That's how it looked to me: she had her weight on her left leg and the right was along for the ride.
She had lidocaine injected in it (legal). Maybe she ever so slightly lost track of where it was as she conentrated on skiing one-legged.
I missed the skating as I was trying to get my kid to do his homework. 🙁
