    Ted Ligety already won a bronze at the FIS Alpine World Cup Tour hosted by Vail Beaver Creek 2015 and in a few minutes he'll line up to defend his Sochi gold medal in Men's Giant Slalom. Good luck, Ted!

      @@LuffyL-ch1ku I know it's an old comment but...what do you mean? You couldn't walk for 2 weeks due to falling and injuring yourself? Or fatiguing? I used to do fair amount of alpine ski racing from 2009 to 2011 and went over that speed many times, breaking didn't feel that bad even on longer, sturdier, heavier and more difficult to turn Super-G skis.

    • @thefreedommovement
      @thefreedommovement 2 роки тому

      The only way to win is to keep your knees strait on the turns. If one ski edge catches a divit or some soft snow, that’s when you get those nasty crashes. So it’s a lot of luck in the run conditions too. That’s why I always tried to go first… before the run got torn up.

      @@barakbacharach9491 While it might be part of the reason, I think they were trying to show the occurance of zoning out due to extreme fatigue, since the blood from your head is going to your bigger, hardest working muscle parts (mostly legs), which happens on longer downhills, especially in Wengen- you can hear Bode Miller talk about it in the material about Lauberhorn- 'Lauberhorn: The Essence of Downhill Ski Racing | ISOS012'.

I've never seen that but of course I am not Super Ted and he's likely in a dimension I haven't met if that is what he's seeing at 80mph plus. I would not doubt it b/c he and others on FIS DH/Super G level are not human. Loved this vid. Right on!

      He's professional. He should fight for every second and millisecond during the race. Different models of skis are good for certain types of tracks.
      Also waxing (You saw the men doing this in the video with special iron) the skis is extremely important because each wax should be applied for certain condition of snow and weather, so he might have different types of wax on different skis to test and choose the best for the next competition.

    • @OrangeNerd1
