elias123 0 #26 February 19, 2006 i think ski-jumping (don't know if it's the right term) is the most awesome olympic wintersport. i wouldn't be surprised if these athletes have good tracking skillz "In a mad world, only the mad are sane" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

misaltas 0 #30 February 19, 2006 QuoteIt's like luge, but backwards Lugers pushing themselves back up the course would be more impressive. Coolest Sport? Ice Hockey. That and Womens Biathlon.

tbrown 26 #32 February 19, 2006 Quotemy vote - Skeleton.... looks like tracking (steers the same?) - with your nose a couple of centometers from the ice and at 100+ k.p.h That or else like good old American sledding in an ice chute. I also really like those snowboard races with 4 people at a time. I just LOVE the Winter Olympics ! They can keep the summer stuff, if it has snow or ice in it, it's just more exciting & beautiful.

lawrocket 3 #35 February 19, 2006 Okay, Curling is number 1. And to hell with those of you who think I'm kidding. Awesome sport, and the greatest hottis of the Olympics are in women's curling (I'm hoping I dont' call my wife "Cassie.") And I'll tip my hat to boardcross. It looks awesome. After that, ice hockey, skeleton, luge, bobsled, ski jumping and short-track speed skating. My wife is hotter than your wife. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dqpacker 7 #36 February 19, 2006 Yeah that sucked. If your going to showoff do it off the last jump so if you fall you still have a chance at crossing the finish first. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rehmwa 2 #37 February 19, 2006 Read the whole post so far. Agreed - ice skating and ice dancing completely suck ... Driving is a one dimensional activity - a monkey can do it - being proud of your driving abilities is like being proud of being able to put on pants Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

turtlespeed 221 #39 February 19, 2006 Has anyone yet deployed a base rig off a ski jump? that would be awesome - ski jumping accuracy.I'm not usually into the whole 3-way thing, but you got me a little excited with that. - Skymama BTR #1 / OTB^5 Official #2 / Hellfish #408 / VSCR #108/Tortuga/Orfun Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
