is bloody FANTASTIC

not only has the commentator used the line "sucked in like something caught in the death stars tractor beam", but women are STACKING it left, right and centre

and, onve these qualifiers are out of the way, there is the GENIUS of sticking FOUR competitors on the track in one go - they are struggling to get down individually, so that has the potential to be CARNAGE

bbc one via the red button :thumbsup:

'Tis proper QUALITY this :thumbsup:

Watched all the mens last night and been looking forward to this one all day at work today. Late start due to fog was nice too as I was able to wind down with a nice spot of curling and several large earl greys before this.

Eliminators start in 2 minutes - odd that all the women seemed to fall over, much more than the men. Really good sport, reckon they should get people on those tiny skis doing it too - would be pretty fun.

Lindsey Jacobellis looked superb on her second run. Looks good for a medal - gold perhaps ?...... showboating aside of course :lolol:

How does everyone rate Zoe Gillings' chances for a medal ?

Come on Zoe !

Jacobellis nudged out and through the gate. Have to feel sorry for her really.

that sounds utterly MENTAL

another pearler of a comment from the commentator when that british bird pulled up straight away in the last race, stating "i cant say for sure, but its definitely an injury"
