Anyone watching? I'm really disappointed by the rail sections. No one is even attempting to hit a whole rail. Hopefully skiing will be better. Judging seems a little random too.

Lol at them talking about how bad speed checking is. Some rails require less speed derp.


Idk if its the snow, or the olympics, or not getting enough practice time but people are looking rough.

Reds and Marks runs were tight, def a heater of a heat compared to the first heat.

This is crazy. Course is definetly not in the snowboarders favor. Everyone is stumbling on rails and coming up short or crashing.

Besides mcmorris no one is landing triples
