Downhill And Slalom Events Are Becoming Boring While The Excitement Is Big Air And Halfpipe Events

[mudwhistle]

Watching a boring Downhill event just doesn't have the thrill it used to. I prefer watching Big Air and Halfpipe events by far.

Course watching the Women's US Hockey team beat the crap out of everyone was pretty exciting too.

Downhill used to be the big event at the Winter Olympics.....but it's not what it used to be.

Just my opinion.

Make mine timed races, over events with subjective style points and politics.

Pretty much.
The Italians are the host country.....and host countries always seem to have a huge advantage.

The Downhill is the only event I enjoy watching. Eighty five miles an hour on skis... yikes.

Curling is every day. Endless curling. 24 hours a day. Then we do not see any of it again for 4 years.
