It was very evident in the top section at worlds. Today was the same: under the kosh and he cracked, like an old lady's hip ThePubSA 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was very evident in the top section at worlds. Today was the same: under the kosh and he cracked, like an old lady's hip  not doubting his fitness at all...and we have seen he has the bmt from 2010....the big difference i guess is that gee was probably focusing a bit more on the business end of things while steve was just wanting to go fast down the hill but lets face it..gee lost it last weekend by coming in 12th ThePubSA 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThePubSA Posted September 22, 2013 Share gee was probably focusing a bit more on the business end of things while steve was just wanting to go fast down the hill  Think you pretty much summed up those 2 characters. Steve still just having fun and taking the pressure as it comes,while gee is too serious and forgot that its about fun not just accomplishments. Could see this in pmb already when steve *&%$*$^% up on first turn and was like with a 1/2 smile ... "well thats worlds"Way more just down for whatever,and just soaking up the ride of the pro lifestyle. To me it reflected in the performance..kinda like gwin was riding the wave when there was nothing to lose ... before the pressure.Then there's GM who under extreme hometown pressure just smiles and wins Stretch 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
