Legend of Bode grows

"Racing in the downhill portion of the combined competition (one run of downhill and two runs of slalom scored by cumulative time) at the Alpine World Ski Championships, Miller lost a ski on a low jump 15
seconds into the course and then skied for roughly 90 seconds over more than a mile of steep, twisting snow on one long, thick downhill ski. Peers in the finish corral marveled at his skill and reveled in the theater. 'He was superb, even on one ski,'' said Austrian downhiller Michael Walchhofer."

Damn. That's amazing. The DH races are skied on super-hard, slick, icy runs at sick speeds. Skiing virtually the whole thing on one ski - fast! - is an amazing feat of athleticism. A friend of mine once tried to race the women's DH at Lake Louise. The pro women do it in less than 90 seconds. Granted, it wasn't a closed course, but they got down in something like 3:30. Now try that with one ski !?!
