    Legit shot obviously, but whether those are good betting odds is a different story.

    I bit on the +160 for her to take gs gold. It has now been bet down to +130
    Shiffrin is only 5/1 to win the dh but is 15/1 to win superg. Does she race more downhills then supergs cuz that seems contrary to what one would think?
    I bit on vonn dh gold at +120 but won't be bummed at all to lose if shiff takes it

    She has won more DHs and has placed higher in them on average than super G.

    Why? I don't know. But I would guess it's because she has killer fitness and really good pump/glide technique which makes glider-focused downhills good for her. And I believe the Olympic downhill favors gliders.

    Anyone know when this wind is scheduled to die down? I wanna watch some damn ski racing!

    She's got a shot at every race she starts.... A few of the ladies are skiing very well right now though.

    Fukt: a very small amount of snow.

    Looks like Thursday at the earliest. Another system blowing through on Wednesday with 40-50 mph winds. This blows.

    Pretty cool to have Bode broadcasting. Insightful to the nth degree. Looking forward to his commenting.
    Like how he's still a team mate / coach to Mikaela... talking about warming up in the GS for her specialty the next day. So positive.
    Shiffrin is such a bad ass athlete with a good heart.
    Good luck, girl!

    So I'm confused. Racing postponed until tomorrow? When can we watch it live?

    MS second last to run. Quite the suspense thriller on tap.

    Showed her on the chair with the bar down again. I wonder if she keeps it up when mom isn't with her? NTTAWWT.

    And it is a reset course for run 2.
