The overhead shot is definitely the one you want to be judging from, but a pov cam from the skip would be seriously cool. And yeah, congrats to USA women's team for beating Canada. First time Canada has ever lost in the qualifying rounds. Has to happen eventually. Canada has dominated this sport so much that it stings to get losses, but such is the nature of the Olympics.

That is a wicked cool sport. A couple of our local rinks run leagues of this, and it's seriously fun to watch. I tried playing it once, it kicked my ass. It requires so much upper body strength it's crazy. I have mad respect for the folks who play this.

Not sure where the skipper stands, but I'm also not sure you understand what I want to see.
Not all the time. Maybe just the first half of each end, then they can switch back to the overhead view.

Canada knows what you want to see. They produce a calendar of the curling players every year. I like it.

Yeah, weird. I can't find one for this year either. They've done one every year forever. That one with the dudes on the front does have some splendid photos of women curlers. Can't help you, wish I could.

Not sure if you’ve already discovered it but some of the slow-mo replay shots of women’s skeleton is pretty damn fantasticNot sure where the skipper stands, but I'm also not sure you understand what I want to see.

Friend of mine was in a wheelchair and played wheelchair basketball. Beyond rough. Not uncommon for someone to break a finger or they have to call timeout to get everyone back in the chairs again after a fight/collison broke out.
