ski sunday

I preferred last year's too though the gf prefers this year's format. Which is strange as we have Eurosport and can watch the whole thing instead of the highlights.

And why show slalom - it's dull compared to downhill.

As long as Graham Bell is gracing my screen I'll be happy :wink:

i love slalom beats me how they know which poles to go around, downhill very good too, and free style is completely nutty

As long as it doesn't have 'smellavision' as he had the same top on for three weeks. I'm stinking after an afternoon on the slopes.

Obviously it's left of red, right of blue (or the other way round) but can anyone explain why they have double gates sometimes, and why there are sometimes other poles on the course that they don't ski round - doesn't that make it confusing for them?

Perhaps it makes more sense to see it in person.

Didn't you watch the Men's slalom on saturday? It was very exciting especially with the some of top runners all ballsing things up. And I'm not a big fan of slalom.
