And from the Shredders update:
How to watch Ski Racing and be a fan of the World Cup!
- If you have made it this far into this email then you are ready to be a World Cup ski racing fan! Sit with your young ski racer and watch the action!
- https://www.cbc.ca/player/sports/skiing
- CBC is great for watching live or recent events
- I like watching the 2nd run of events and that way you get to see the the top 30 finishers from first run come down with the fastest coming last and you get to see the drama and who is the fastest in the world that day!
- You dont have to watch the whole event, skip ahead and just watch the top 10.
- This is the last one that I watched and really enjoyed. The top 3 is very interesting and I shared this one at dryland training yesterday and we discussed sportsmanship and the agony of defeat. https://www.cbc.ca/player/play/2281725507990
