The best one was that bloke who did a 360 and still only just missed out on 2nd.

Every winter olympics I end up watching loads of curling and every summer olympics, I end up watching loads of bowls. It's quite soothing to watch late at night!

Bit annoyed with the timings of this year's olympics, I've missed just about everything I'm interested in apart from one round of the men's half-pipe. Would love to have seen Shaun White's run and especially his Double McTwist 1260.

He Christened it "The Tomahawk". Typical American cheesy name. Looked bloody impressive though. I was going to post a Youtube link, but there aren't any.

EDIT

iPlayer: 1 hour 13 minutes in. It's the last one before he crosses the green line.

I wish they'd take this curling cr4p off and show the ski jumping. Not only is it less entertaining, but those women are making stupid mistakes. A shot was just removed as it didn't even cross the minimum distance line. :roll:

I actually found it on the BBC website in the end, absolutely amazing run!
