#RoadtoSochi - last leg

Yep, this is pic is disturbing.
Neureuther in Germany uniform.

Missed last weekend, mostly because I knew weather conditions would have been tough and thought few would have race 100%, but actually it resulted in a nice weekend (or rather Sunday).

Now on to Sochi and the Olympics games.
Little could be said about the hills, though as usual for this kind of events are going to be easy (to boring) slopes.
Test races were held there in 2012 but I wouldn't relate too much on those results.
Anyway here are few videos.

Hans Knauss on Men's Downhill slope



And Mr.GS Ted Ligety trying Giant-Slalom's slope. This one is a bit more relevant as it happened only last year and Ligety exclusively trained on that slope. All this to add to the fact that this hill perfectly suits to Ted's style.



Schedule of the Games:












This week I'll try to make some graphs about main athletes results and forms, I had thought for long. Should give better idea of current shape of some of them.
