Hurrah. Aimee Fuller in 9th too. She's been riding really well and is currently sitting in 10th place in the TTR World Rankings, that's some 14 places above Jamie Nicholls (although Jamie is not a girl... obviously).

and once again the BBC are not covering this. I get so angry at how well our athletes do and just get ignored. We bring home loads of wins all winter long and nothing. Infact the BBC have not updated their winter sports page since the olympics finished. i've written a strong e-mail (again, I seem to do this every winter).

I'll look forward to watching the runs and checking out the talent on ESPN HD when I get home.

If you watch ESPN turn it off just before the end. If not you'll hear the stupid yank ruin the whole thing by pronouncing Tignes so badly its unture.

It's well awesome for Jenny and I think when chance arises later, lets try and through her in the mix for sports personallity of the yeaar.
HANDD my mate works for the Beeb and the guys are off on holiday and the rest are getting organised for the Paralympics which start tonight, as you may see if you read that page as well, so cut them a break. Jenny Jones news on everywhere else and I have been told will be put up later on. They have updated the winter sports section as well if you look
Aimee Fuller is rocking at the moment, well done girl

If by V+ you mean Virgin, Dunx, just be glad it works.

I thought she blew out her knee just before the last gold and needed a couple of months off.
(maybe that's just what she told the day job)
Best one-legged boarder ever.

Her run was amazing... and she was head and shoulders above the rest. She was the only chick hitting the big booter on the 3rd jump and she looked so good spinning both ways. Plus she had the best tunes during her runs, ACDC and Led...
That said, and don't lynch me for this, the men's ski slopestyle final was the biggest thing at the x-games... those boys go BIG...

So what about last year? What was the excusse then?
Also I can't find the updated page, when I click through to winter sports on the BBC I just get the olympics page that hasn't even been updated for the paras

The crazy thing was it wasn't her top run... in practise she was landing some sick stuff... what money on a threepeat at the Aspen X-Games next year...?

No, no, no... stop using that crap American chat. Next you'll be saying the Winter Bash is taking place in "Teenyes"

Well if that's how the French pronounce it...
Sorry on the threepeat stuff... too much NFL, and it was easier than saying for a third time.
