Any Day, Any Race

Amazing. Here's a piece on China's attempt to become a winter sports power in just 7 years. The politics of salmon.
Don’t forget the old salmongate blame.
 
Oh deer (sorry content not funny but wasn't sure where to put this...)

 
It wasn’t a race but the team aerials we won gold was close.
If the judges gave points to the Chinese skier who did a front flip perfectly on landing instead of counting it as a deduction and added degree of difficulty bonus points they would've won.
In basketball ya don’t have to call yer unintended bank shot that scores..
If he called the front flip before he took off count I say count it.
Even if he didn’t it still had some kind of style points.
 
Conditions looked to be good packed powder with sunshine.

I've seen other video of this carnage, which sounds to be a regular at each installment of the Vasaloppet. Hill looks much steeper than in other videos. If organizers had not set track here, this might have been avoidable.
