Yeah I really don't get the strategy here

Like half of them seem capable of putting together a clean run if they simplify their routine

Do that and you could be in position for a medal
Accomplish it on run 1 and you can really go for it on run 2

announcer finally pointed out that practically all of them are speed checking which is just suicide for them at this point

Also, don't try to do anything extravagant on the 1st jump, or you won't have the speed for the 2nd jump

They've all seemed to have plenty for the 3rd jump

I feel that way as well. I mean stuff like snow storms, heavy winds, etc. the condition of the course after that settles is the nature of the sport.

The chick with the kineseo tape on her inner thigh that read "U S A" seemed...nice.

The officials should immediately be sent out to complete the course. See how they like slamming into hard ice from 30ft in the air. fricken idiots. Fun bonus is they ruin an Olympic event.
