Going Downhill

Shiffrin adds to her literal herd of reindeer and Herscher misses the mark while certain skiers flow through the course. The World Cup this week took us to Levi, Finland for the 1st SL of the season. Wendy and Shelley analyze the race but also chat about the latest gossip on the circuit. 

There were no pillow fights throughout the recording of this episode. 

Wendy and Shelley discuss people coming out of retirement, switching nations, and set choices! Oh and they also talk about the races...who had a sweep??????

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.
