Everything is rutted out, but I don't think he caught the rut too badly. Maybe he's got marker bindings.

Can't help but ponder whether Russ/Gus will pull both triple corks and rodeos. Both have them and jumps are big enough.

Sochi is basically just like skiing in Mammoth or Tahoe... right off the water and it's warm to begin with.

The russian is a mogul skier. I wonder if he's doing slope style by free will, or if the team is pushing for it?

it's what.. 100 miles from the Pacific the way the crow flies?

Compare that to Colorado, which is like 1000...

The snow is 1/10 ratio in the sierras for a reason.
