How much can these guys actually steer the sled once they get going? Are they pressing inward with their feet to make it move around the track?

So this is interesting. The guy on one figure skating pair is dating/married to the girl on the other team. That has to be awkard. Oh and he's 25 with a 16 year old partner. Olympics just got juicy!

You control the runners with your legs, and can also control a little steering input by shifting your weight.

thanks for the explanation vinylbandit

Since you know what's going on maybe you can shed some light on this for me...

Do they see what's coming and react to it or are they going totally off feel from running the course previously and guiding the sled based on that experience?

^^^^ They memorize the course. They're reacting to conditions, etc., but they know what turns are coming and what they have to do in each of them for the proper line.

As a matter of fact, there was an article a while back about how the athletes are fucking like rabbits in olympic village, and gold medal winners command the best pussy. Thus, the ideal is to win a gold early and have a lot of fun for the rest of the time.

It's been reported that the first vending machine that is emptied at the Olympic Village is the one that has condoms.

I remember hearing about this during the summer Olympics. When that dude won gold for Canada and given the preponderance of insanely gorgeous Canadian chicas I knew he just won life.

Zambonis are notoriously fickle machines.

Looking into this deeper, though, they're not using Zambonis for the Olympics.

They're using Olympias (like they use at the RBC Center), and electric ones at that.
