CBC - 8 commercials in the middle. Missed PK's run and whoever came after him.

What is PK wearing? Why is it different than what Andreas was wearing? Does Norway not have team kits?

why are these olympic people and NBC OBSESSED with skiers skiing backwards. at the beginning of these qualifications this shitty announcer was talking about how many people can ski 'switch, and thats when they go in reverse'

I found a low quality illegal stream. turn it on when the 8 commercials come on, then switch back for the high def. CBC is almost worse than NS for adds!

so far all ive figured out is
a. your run is judged till u fall, then the rest doesnt count.
b. triples wont guarantee a win
c. creatives lines are rewarded
d. sylish grabs are rewarded

the rest is a mystery still. more will develop as the comp goes on.

Oystein's run was goddamn awesome, I think he will be the next top competitor in slopestyle with a little more time.

Luckily he isn't sponsored by saga...because if he was and his team didn't have a kit, it would require a lot of duct tape to make the clothing "Olympic Kosher"
