Men's Freestyle Aerials!!

Feb 25, 2010 23:44

Got back from the finals for the men's Freestyle Aerials competition a couple hours ago. It was pretty cool! We ended up in 5th place after being in first at the end of the first jump. But the winners really had some AMAZING jumps in the second set ( Read more... )

OMG, that's so cool Amie. Freestyle is one of my favourites! :D Awesome pics. :D How many hours did you have to stand there?

Also, those red olympic mittens? Soooo warm. My hands were the only thing that weren't freezing by the time it was over.

They're so cute, I want them. :P I saw them on TV, they said the official Olympic mittens are already sold out?!

Thanks :). Hmm, well once I was in the venue after the long line to get in, I was standing about 3 hours, then we were almost an hour getting out and onto the bus. I left my apartment at 1:45pm and didn't get home until 10pm.

When I was out yesterday, I only saw a single pair of child mittens. Not an adult mitt in sight. So I would say yes, they are sold out. At least in the Greater Vancouver Area. I could check with my sister in Ontario and see if maybe there's still some there, and if there is I could send you a pair. But I can't guarantee they aren't sold out country-wide.

That would be sweet, of course I'll pay you. Thanks for your efforts! ♥

I was out yesterday and didn't see any. I had my sister check and none in Ontario either. I'll keep an eye out though. They may restock for the Paralympic games, but it does seem highly unlikely.

Cooooooool! How lucky you got to go!

Yeah! I was so happy they didn't cancel that ticket too :).
