This is rough to call the same conditions. It was a weird strong wind that'd go from nothing to like 50 mph gusts - and they're like 35' in the air when it gusts. Worse, the timing was such that it'd fuck over the first half and then die down for the second half of 'em.

I kinda feel bad for 'em. But, it was pretty fucking amusing to see 'em get blown like 15' into the pipe and drop 35' on their heads.

Anyhow, it wasn't consistent so not the same conditions. Fate said the first half got straight fucked while the second half had pretty much no wind at all.

Yeah erratic wind gusts would make it different for everyone.

Worse, the wind pretty much only fucked over half of 'em - and it did it three times in a row. Mother Nature just said "I'm gonna fuck you guys over - and let the rest compete without any wind at all."

THREE TIMES IN A ROW!

It was like a shooting competition where the first half of the people had someone jump out behind them yelling SURPRISE every time they went to shoot.

But, the wind predictions for the next few days are just as bad. So, they sent 'em.

Now, the snow they land on is concrete level hard. It's not soft and fluffy - it's compressed ice crystals. You now how hard that is. You live in snow territory. One dude went up like 35' in the air, was blown in 15' and blown sideways so that he landed straight on his head. That's fucking deadly.

I don't mind deadly competition, but you know... They should DECIDE to enter deadly competition.

In theory, they could have refused to compete today, but that's not really a realistic option for 'em. So, some dude almost died. Seriously, he didn't move for a bit and then his ski started twitching about a minute after help arrived. I was kinda amused.

I take it they dont practice in windy conditions and they don't have any wind tricks at the ready in case a gust comes up while they are in the air
