She is a hotty. Got to see both the Super G and the Downhill. She is an impressive skier on courses that were giving other skiers fits (esp. the Super G)!

Too bad she's married =(

I just hope that this DOESN'T lead to the over marketing of Lindsey and hence the ridiculous media expectations on her heading into the Olympics next year that Bode had on him leading upto Torino 4 years ago.

Somehow though, I don't think that Lindsey will be getting any Champagne endorsement deal though ;) :rolleyes: :lol:

THAT is how to carve your turns. Smooth and steady. Outstanding!

Looks like the American boys blew it...

Man, the things that happen when you're away!

Bode had slalom issues yesterday in the Super Combined, but just look at the save he made in the DH portion yesterday(just past the 1:20 mark of the vid)!! WOW!! Classic Bode - and even with making that turn from his hip, he finished 2nd (0.04 out)in the DH portion to Axel Sindval(?sp) of Norway who put down a BIG TIME run



Liggety was DQ'd after a solid DH because one of his binding's heal pieces was less than 1 mm too tall :mad:

Bode actually got screwed by mother nature in the regular DH as a fog bank rolled into right around his starting time and you could see it affected how he attacked that part of the course, and if I recall correctly, the race officials decided 1 or 2 racers after Bode to hold the race for a few minutes for the fog to clear.
