Hail Maelle
I just watched Canadian Jon Montgomery win gold in the Men’s Skeleton Competition, pretty awesome! For so much emphasis placed on Canada never having one a gold medal on home soil, it really seems like a non issue. 4 golds later, with plenty of time time to add to that total, it seems like a strange thing that it had never been done before.
If all my Olympic talk, I can’t believe that I never mentioned Maelle Ricker’s performance. Her face should be familiar to those who have lived in Whistler. She writes an article in Whistler’s Pique Newsmagazine, and has been competing in the sport of boardercross for what seems like forever. I loved her quote on the weather at Cypress, and how it made her feel comfortable. If that doesn’t sound like a Whistler local talking, I don’t know what does. Low visibility, varying snow conditions, that’s what the west coast is all about! Oh, and where was the competition on that final run!
