Jimbo,
Somewhere Lynn must have a great big grin on her face! Reminiscent of G calling her out to join her first RS trip via "come on Dude, join us" or "man up and join us"....or something like that!

But, the video is some fine skiing, regardless of sex of the skier!

One does have to wonder about the FIS Competition committee making this level of change without consulting the group involved in the change. Watching GS, for me, is the most interest from a technical ability standpoint. They just have to make great, round turns and it's fascinating to observe the skill. In the day, the best GS skiers were considered the best of the best for technique. Speed events seem to rule these days.

Downhill or SG is more thrilling, but, I can't relate to ever attempting those disciplines. My reflexes are way, way to slow for SL, and, for me it's the least interesting with the knocking down of gates. More of a boxing match  than skiing.
