Congrats to Hannah and the entire USA woman's mogul team !! All 4 of the girls made it to the 'next to last' final of 12 skiers.

Jaielin [sp?] Kauf and Olivia made it to the super finals with Jaielen coming in 2nd place. Hannah just missed the super finals ending up in 7th place. Pretty amazing !!

Looks like Beijing is a little more challenging than SS. Shiffrin loses again.

"I ain't no phag"as Howerd Stern as used to say. Butt I am watching the ice dancing on NBC which is not very manly of this Hump. Those couples can skate. As a hockey player, I can definitely appreciate what they are able to do on ice. And man, those chicks have some hot bods.

Atomic, out.

Lots of people at Snowshed at 5AM to support Hannah. Saw the pics on FB. Awesome.
Unfortunately, Hannah did not make the last final. Luckily one of the team members got the silver.

Jaelin still has some connection to Killington. I watched her dad ski Outer Limits along with Steve Desovich and Chuck Martin probably around 1990. Inspired me to ski a few USSA mogul comps a year during high school

Didn't know that she had a connection to Killington. Thanks for letting me know. She had excellent runs. She's also skis very aggressively.

My main man, Beat Feuz, wins the exciting Mens Downhill.

Congrats to Sarah Hector in a crash filled woman's GS. Frederika Brinogne [sp] with two awesome runs just a bit back in second. Paula Moltzan USA in 12th !! Not so good for Nina O'Brien with a horrific high speed fall right at / through the finish line [double compound leg fracture].

Woman's SL tonight!

An extra helping at lunch may have put him in the gold position. Missed out by just 0.04 seconds. Good race to watch.

Something is wrong with her .. seems mentally detached.

.. and her coaches letting her sit uncovered in the snow for 15 minutes sure didnt help. She has 3 disciplines to go. Why risk getting a chill? Get a race parka on her !!

Colby still has his best event coming up 🏅

and .. Lindsey Jacobellis .. finally 😎
