dodging gunfire probably made their routines pop.
i wish. you can try to believe that but when stuff no longer works it’s hard to believe it is only weakness leaving the body.
yeah put your hand over your active gas burner and see how long it takes for the weakness to leave our body. guess the guys screaming from bone breaks and gushot wounds are really weak wimpy pussies.
Well, considering the high speed sports are predicated on aerodynamics with the winners and losers separated by tenths and hundredths of a second, and this was the first time they have worn the Under Armor suits, it could very well be a design flaw.........
I've been a lifetime follower of the alpine events, specifically, the downhill and GS......These guys are skiing a 2 mile course lasting about 2 minutes and yet the finishing times are within hundredths of a second.
What the uninformed watchers of these events aren't privy to is the equipment these skiers use and the technicians that are assigned to the skiers who's sole responsibility is to prepare their skis according to the snow and course conditions. This is indeed a science........
Races at this level are won or lost based on equipment prep............
