Going Downhill

Wendy and Shelley discuss suit safety in FIS and the final speed events in Austria. Soft conditions made for some more historic runs, and the ladies have some suggestions for finals in the future. 

Wendy and Shelley discuss spring conditions in Austria for tech week. Who had a fairy tale finish?  Wendy finally admits to abandoning Shelley with a famous Austrian in the bloopers. 

Wendy and Shelley look at all the standings, the course and results in Sweden...maybe there's a few opinions being thrown out there. The men weren't racing but there is confirmation that a certain someone will be back next winter! 

Whose dad got kicked off the hill? Should the race have gone off in Norway with that viz? How much ice is too much ice in Aspen?

Wendy and Shelley discuss the rather flat course in Tahoe, USA. The women are cancelled due to snow and Shelley explains the rules of racing and what a Ref does on a jury because some coaches are unaware of the job as she found out. 

Gut surpasses the Shiff and the boys are back in Norway where historically Canada has a good time! 

Wendy and Shelley go over the women's races and overall shot at the globes...the men..is a certain Norwegian a whiner??? 

A short week of racing leaves Wendy and Shelley free to discuss more injuries and what they think FIS should do with venues. 

After a down pour of rain and results for the men, Wendy and Shelley discuss the injuries in Cortina. Why and how are they happening at such a rate? So many athletes are getting injured...is this unexpected? 

Wendy and Shelley agree about younger athletes on the tour. Should a 16 year old race World Cup? Then we get into the Strief where the results were a little all over the map but not compared to the DNFs in the slalom.
