Men's super G
the G spot
>>153386744Fat ladies tomorrow
POV: you have a death wish
>>153386696don't know why I need to say this but do NOT try to compete with a torn labia
How does super-g differ from normal downhill?
>italians don't salt their courses
What's so super about this sport?
>>153386810It's shorter and the course has more turns
>>153386826Ah okayy
>>153386696these gents are real g's
>>153386810It is wide turns. It's about how well you can maintain speed as poor form will decrease speed very quickly but proper form with wide turns and you can fly.
>>153386810tighter turns, less speed but still fast af in terms of speed to turns in downhill skiing it goes:downhill > super g > giant slalom > slalom
LET'S GO
I predict another bronze italiabros
oh please oh please God if you're listening, please make the drone operator crash it into the chairlift
>course is set by one of the competing nationsThat's so dumb, why not have an international committee, or a country that doesn't have any entrants
>>153386839>>153386841Okay coolAnd giant slalom differs from slalom how?
>>153386865Why? Are you expecting the organisers to be cackling and rubbing their hands because they built a shortcut for their entrants?
>>153386865The austrians set such a difficult route for the women's slalom that half the contestants wiped.
>>153386854bronzitaly strikes again
my strategy would be to fall over at the first curve, and therefore roll downhill in a big cartoon snowball
Probability French guy stays on the podium? 5%?
that's it, I'm going to their nearest site and filing a complaint
>>153386865the ice? rigged.
>>153386876Slalom is very quick tight turns. It is incredibly technical whereas super g and alpine are more about flow and form.
>>153386879that was more about the lighting conditions and women being women
>>153386876Slalom has the tighter turns and the gates are like this
>alpine ski>austria and switzerland winmaybe we need to change the name of the sport
>>153386876like I said, speed and turns slalom the gates are closer together and you're turning more, slower does not mean easier though as slalom is hard af
>>153386878It's an accepted part of the sport that they'll set a course that gives an advantage to their best entrant, something that plays to their strengths
>>153386923we are literally using the usual bormio course. every single contestant is used to it
>>153386923That sounds like a load of rubbish you just made up completely inside your own skull.
>>153386865I look forward to the somalian designed track, complete with child soldiers and burnt out vehicles>>153386892Truth social post inbound
>>153386944>it's unspoken therefore it is not real
É FINITA
italians just cain it down whatever sport they're in don't they? no time for technique gotta go fast
>>153386932Nah, the italian team got to practice this exact course a week ago with the others only saw it today
>>153386988they literally ski on it multiple times a year every year
>>153386982>you said thisHa ha, you absolute fool.
this seems like a good way to kill yourself
>0.03s away from a medal
>OdermattThere's still the giant slalom
either paris pulls off a god run or we are done with skis
>>153387012Helicopter evacs are on standby.
Wait how come they're leaving the little shed before the countdown stops beeping (or is this a time delay thing)
>>153386986we venerate Bode Miller here
>>153387034the time starts counting when they startthe beeping just tells you when you can start
>we brought unc Innerhofer instead of Schieder
>>153387050schieder is weakmind
>>153387044There should be a launch pad that launches the athlete out the gate like a springboard
>>153387041I didn't watch the biathlon but I imagine you don't really stop to shoot, just unload all rounds as you pass by and then do however many penalty loops your coach shouts at you (but really fast)
Do they get extra points for hitting as many flags as possible
USA USA USA USA USA USA USA USA USA USA USA USA USA USA
>Number 13>Doesn't finishUnlucky eh
LMAO WTF
mamma mia
Ski down.
PARIS NO
>>153387024i jinxed it
kek what did he say?
any other skiers that can beat this swiss mogger?
the equipment looked faulty
>>153387076Something in his native German the commentator said.
Paris has fallen
>>153387057the best innerhofer can do is top 10, he's never been close to podium in years
>>153387089nigga has 110 kilos with the gearwonder what his DIN setting is
>>153387090thanks sherlock
Anyone got a webm of him undoing the ski, looking around and then starting to walk up the slope to get his other ski?
He's so fat the ski gave up
BAN THE FUCKING YANK FOR THEIR WAR OF AGGRESSION AGAINST THE MOST EXCELLENT BOLIVARIAN REPUBLIC OF VENEZUELA AND LET MY COUNTRYMAN GET THE MEDAL THAT RIGHTFULLY BELONGS TO HIM
Paris was kinda pissed
what's the /sp/ name for this dangerous sport?
What does Kriechmayr translate as?
dont the early niggas have a huge advantage? now the snow is all fucked
fuck I miss skiing
When is our boy gonna have his turn? :D
slope is too degraded at this point.austrians would have won if it werent for the slope.
>>153387146Fugg :D
>>153387141yeah, that's why the actual contenders for the medals are the first 20 to go
>>153387118They're skiing down blues lmao
>>153387095About 12
Pretty clear the course has slowed down at the top. It's over.
>>153386932casuals are so used to the olympics being in exotic places where they don't regularly tour that it breaks their brains when it's held in a known quantity like like Bormio where they regularly host the world cup lol
>>153386696Did some swiss guy win?
Commentators just said the race is over because the snow is fuckedIsn't that a pretty bad way to design a sport?
>>153387217Yes, many sports are all luck
>>153387211Allmen again maybe, 3 G´s
>>153387228Its not really luck though is it its more by design
>>153387228the best qualifiers get the best spots, it's not random
just switched over from halfpipe QRD so far?
>>153387243franjowinslol
Death on the halfpipe>>153387243>>153387214
>>153387243USA medal incoming

>>153387275different speeds and curvesslower than downhill, faster than slalom
>>153387261rip
>>153387181lmao no>>153387217italians are TERRIBLE when it comes to wars & slopeswe should have known from the start, should have held the race in tirol
>>153387323caporetto olympics
>>153387237It's fixed
they should cut the finals to top 15 wtf 42??????
>>153387261I don't watch those halfpipe and freestyle things. They give me anxiety. Looks too dangerous.
>>153387336last 26 are made to race as a form of humiliation ritual
>>153387347they are just happy to be there :)
