Tomorrow the debut of this new discipline

What should we expect?
Anyone has followed the circuit and watched some events?

I watched the Bormio test events last year and actually remember nothing, so I guess it was bit underwhelming, but I didn't even know who to keep an eye out for. It's an exciting sport at least conceptually, surely it'll be way more fun at the Olympics.

It's bad
It's like climbing at the olympics but they only brought the speed version and not the interesting stuff

I didn't even know we had someone participating.
Two of the 3 don't even have wikipedia pages, so I'm guessing they aren't very good.

It's probably a conservative course because this is an exhibition event and they don't want anything to go wrong. More mountaineering activities is cool to see though. We desperately need a climb up a mountain and then glissade down event, even a relatively short course would be intense with enough elevation change

half of the sport consists of taking off your skis and putting them back on again?
