is there anything that compares to DH skiing? sonofbitch those guys haul so much ass and the turn...damn. for some reason, i never appreciated it until yesterday when watching the combined even (DH + 2 Slalom).

Yes - Super-G and Giant Slalom are close. A bit less speed but usually the turns are crazy-fun to watch. And lots more turns to boot.

I think slalom is almost as exciting. The speed and precision of those guys is really something.

I don't hate the olympics, I'm just not really interested in watching them. I used to never miss then when I was younger, but now it's just sort of ho-hum.

i can't even comprehend how fast they are. and how they can possibly keep an edge. it boggles my mind. i think it is by far the most exciting thing to watch in the olympics.
