HOLLY SMOKES! Did anyone else watch that race. That was one heck of a pass then he just went into warp speed. Wowsers.

Great race, cameras barely caught the spills behind him, as he moved ahead.

I don't think the race has been broadcast yet in NM. Olymics start up again in 15 minutes here.
Yup, they just said it is coming up.

Sorry about the spoiler, but it was just a qualifying heat. If I were in that sport I think I would just go home. That kid is crazy good.

If I just heard right, the medal competition is tonight as well. I am conflicted with admiration and the desire to shank him for being so damn perfect lol

Fantastic passing. His ability to read the pack and move into position is above none but I never expected that pass. He weighs only 145 lbs, I'm sure that helps in to corners and is what allowed him to make such an extreme maneuver. Can't wait for the medal event tonight!

Sorry, must have been watching a different event that he was in. I think I saw him in the 1500 metre, and in that one he was hot, but did finish in the medals.
Way to go for the Silver though!

It was tough watching her come in second all things considered, however, my disappointment for her was tempered by the fact that team USA skier took the gold. You have to admit, that young lady did that final run to perfection.
