Location: Christchurch | Re: Olympics - What Are You Watching? Archery, wondering how they get the camera shots head on to the bow. I'm sure its all in the zoom, but should they have tried such a shot in the 80's they would have gotten a bit owned by the arrow  .OT: funny how a normal topic on Olympics can so easily diverge into a perverted discussion on female Olympiads...

Women's road race was good... the 5 that broke away did exceptionally well, what they peloton was doing I really do not know, some awful awful organisation in there. Conditions were pretty crap too, bet they were all relieved that was over. | |

Location: Dunedin | Re: Olympics - What Are You Watching? We caught the synchronised diving last night and WOW! How the heck they manage to stay in perfect timing with one another is beyond me? Some of them even started and stopped walking up to the diving board in time and flexing their legs in time before they started lol - great minds huh
