Reverse close out down rail.

The rails probably don't have lips yet, as mentioned above. They still have a few days before they can even practice on it. If what gus is saying is true about jump sizes then shit is about to get so real.

Looks much much better than expected. Gonna be crazy.

I think Archer has ruined the Russian image for me. I just think of broken glass everywhere, and kids drinking vodka.

Are the jumps bigger because they have the secondary optional jumps for the women?

To me it doesn't even look like there's a lip onto the 2 features on the left of the photo that Gus posted.

The first rail feature set is EXACTLY the same as what they had at PC for the Grand Prix. Interesting.
