i can see why people were complaining about the slopestyle course, these jumps are HUGE and the landings are so steep

Does anyone else feel like a slacker watching these Europeans speak good, if a bit accented, English? I realize English is an important language to know and we have the benefit of it being our native tongue, but still.

Yup. I've started to try and learn french because I see these europeans just talk english like it's a main language of theirs.

We had a German exchange student in one of my classes in high school. She was fluent in German, English, Spanish, and French. She said all Germans are fluent in at least 3-4 languages. Blew my mind, she spoke Spanish better than I do and I live in California lol.

i'm pretty sure english is actually the most spoken language overall in europe, most students learn it all throughout school
my mom's from finland and said english was taught alongside finnish all through school

They teach french here in Canada for most of your elementary/high school career. Thing is, once you hit high school you can stop taking it after grade 9 and I was one of those dummies that did. Trying to hop back on the bandwagon and learn it. Great for a resume in Canada.

I see you Silje

The blisters my cousins and I gave ourselves playing Athens 2004 for ps2 were unreal. We took that **** so seriously we eventually discovered putting a sock on your hand prevented blisters and allowed for world record performances.

Well French is an official second language here so technically it's more to us than Spanish is to you guys.

[QUOTE=PaddyBoi;1204219331]Will reputation for Sage Kotsenburg gold medal run video. Thanks brehs.[/QUOTE]Not likely. Youtube has been taking down the Olympic uploads fast as fukk. You didn't miss much anyway, Parrot should have won.

All about that one handed Japan. Did anyone just see the polish guy win the ski jumping? He KILLED it. Never thought I'd yell out "omg" at ski jumping.

[QUOTE=TajTebwee;1204258491]All about that one handed Japan. [/QUOTE]Japan grab was sick, and so were his hand drags on that last rail, but Parrot is a fukking wizard in the air and he should've won landing the triple as clean as he did.
I think he would've won if he laid this run down clean:
