What is the Olympic Super-G?
101695
It's an alpine race that fits between the downhill and the giant slalom. It has a steeper course than the GS, with wider spacings between the gates.\n\nIf I read the rules correctly, in GS, the gates have to be at least 10m apart. In Super-G they must be at least 25 meters apart.\n\nA GS the vertical drop is 250-450 meters, in Super-G 500-600 meters.\n\nIn GS, you take 15% of the vertical drop to compute the number of gates, i.e. 300 m drop, 45 gates. In Super-G its 10%.\n\nYou can read the rules here: http://www.fis-ski.com/data/document/ICR04.pdf

Athletic Cup.  It is a lot bigger than the World Cup, if you catch my drift.

james,\n\nA country wins ONE medal for each event.  If there are say, two members to a team, ex. two-person luge, each member will get a gold medal.  Statistically however, one medal per event.

Go to Google Video search and search for "enrico fabris."  You should get some results that show the medal ceremony, which by the way was one of the best moments in these Olympics!

Sid Vicious of the Sex Pistols claimed to have invented the Pogo in 1976. In A Hard Days Night, you can see Ringo dancing the Pogo in 1964.  Of course, some Pentecostals and African tribes have been pogoing for years before that. I can't  find a reference to an Olympian inventing it. Peter Mueller won the gold in the 1,000 meters, so he must be the one your looking for.

Davos is a pretty good resort, linked reasonably well with Klosters.  It's got a far range of skiing/boarding available so would suit pretty much any ability.  There can be some really good powder too!  A couple of things I'd say though - 1) The linking between runs is not fantastic - you may find yourself taking your foot out of the binding and pushing far more than you'd like. 2) It's very expensive for eating/drinking out/
