Women's Slope Discussion

[ashamedkrew]

At least half these girls are spot fillers, probably only half a dozen that have any kind of chance

 

[pow_pow~]

im calling it now, anna segal will take gold.

 

[dross250]

Stoked to see Anna Segal killing it! She's a wiley vet. Good stuff

 

[saskskier]

You can definitely tell who the more athletic women are. Some really fight through a bad landing while others just collapse like rag dolls.

 

[chicken]

anna segal's run was pretty nice.

who are all these random people messing up though?

 

[t_rob]

Calling it now, Devin will huck a dub 12 on her second run.

 

[t_rob]

FUCK.

 

[cheaaaaaa]

oh really, its her first olympics too??? I'm not sure the nbc guy is aware this is new to the olympics.

fuck i hope turskis knee is okay

[pow_pow~]

and fall.

but fuck that was a huge fail off that box.

 

[pow_pow~]

fall*

 

[cheaaaaaa]

anyone watching nbc. is that mike douglas we hear in the background announcing for the crowd?? its a recognizable voice but idt its luke

 

[icon1234]

uncle e i think... idk

 

[eheath]

Uncle e

 

[t_rob]

Sounds like uncle E doing course announcing. Luke is announcing for the primetime feed.

 

[Peter.]

ouch hopefully turski is ok, rough fall from a pretty solid height

 

[DERS.]

never thought id say id rather be listening to uncle e. but wow. at least its comically bad

 

[t_rob]

She was on the ground way too long for something not to be wrong. Just saying.

 

[Peter.]

yeah that's what i was thinking too. also these girls need to start hitting the big side of the jumps. they are all overshooting that first jump so badly

 

[cheaaaaaa]

put on your pole straps ladies!!!!

 

[Peter.]

dude this course is so sloppy right now. so shitty with these temps, they cant get speed for the second jump at all

 

[pow_pow~]

she was on the ground way too long without any assistance.

and why are athletes climbing back up to retrieve dropped equipment??

 

[Irotate360]

So looks like this Qualifying round will be televised on NBC tomorrow at 3:30 with Finals tomorrow in primetime in the states

Does anyone know if the finals in a couple hours will be televised or at least streamed like this?

Same question goes for Snowboard pipe tomorrow morning. It'll no doubt be ruined before it airs in primetime and i'd like to watch live

 

[chicken]

nice. hiking for a pole and sliding down on belly. this is slopestyles olympic debut. now no one will think skiing is cool and I am ok with that!

 

[B.Fantana]

you would think there would be people around to help them get there gear

 

[Mama.]

Kaya lol. Where's redbull to make a documentary on her progression?

 

[cheaaaaaa]

all events are

 

[pow_pow~]

"barell roll"

ive muted it.

 

[sugo]

best comment in a loooooong time hahahaha

 

[Peter.]

fuck yeah keri

 

[ski_powpow]

YES

 

[eheath]

Yeah the guy clearly is doing his best it's better than the Snowboard slopestyle announcer

 

[cheaaaaaa]

keri better make it with that!!

stoked on her cork 3.

but how about that misty to dub front. $$$

 

[Vincenzo]

Camilla Berra dub front, nice.

 

[chicken]

maybe it's because they are still technically competing? probably would have someone on it if she skied to the bottom.

 

[Peter.]

this is just qualis man, she didn't get a full run down the first time

relax

 

[pow_pow~]

hahah why does this girl set for her spins before the jump?

 

[Peter.]

she definitely had some sort of background in aerials or moguls, she sets her spins just like they do

 

[pow_pow~]

yeah definitely

 

[Peter.]

also i love this announcer. at least he's trying.

'coming in reverse...ski grab...'

'coming up, iron cross! stuck the landing'

 

[Vincenzo]

She is 30+ bro, old swag!

 

[joelski]

CBC announcers called it tail grab not blunt

 

[ski_powpow]

How the hell did devin logan score an 80, shit was shit

 

[bob_dole]

because that switch 5 was so goddamned sick. she held grabs on all those tricks so well. psyched for you devin!

 

[Peter.]

she tossed a little shifty in at the end of the third jump too. pretty styly

 

[dross250]

Damn Tsubota bringing some creativity and flavour to the table! Stoked all the girls are throwing down so hard. Celebrate Sarah!!

 

[chicken]

bs switchup is a "flatspin" on the rail according to CBC

 

[cheaaaaaa]

this Canadian chick must have been a bump skier that didn't make it. that back mute tells all

 

[NPF]

Go yuki! Home girl putting it down. also lisa is the fucking sickest. actually tricking all the features.

 

[ski_powpow]

How the fuck did Yuki not beat devin. Actually had a rail game. Did solid cork 9 on last jump.
