The whole competition was awesome, including the qualifying.
Dem boys have serious cajonas.

The cojones grow with the knowledge he tore his face apart not too long ago.

The men's half pipe was a great competition, a Japanese guy bested Shaun's first excellent run. Then Shaun fell on his second run, So it came down to his last run to get the gold. And he went off big time, best height out of the pipe by far, and put together those amazing maneuvers under the greatest of pressure.
Truly a Gold Medal performance! Cheers Richard Last edited by tevake; 02-16-2018 at 05:20 PM.. |

Yea, not a big fan of judges either.
But this year the athletes wore ankle collars with telemetry. Recorded spins, height, etc. And with instant replay the judges had better perspectives to see the nuances of each run.
