Our own Crash Pad junkie Billy Demong wins Olympic Silver
Today was our first day in Whistler to watch our own Crash Pad model/junkie Billy Demong compete in the Winter Olympics in Nordic Combined. Today was the Team Relay. After some great jumps, USA was in 2nd place only 2 seconds behind Finland. The skiing portion was 4 legs of 5K each. Brett Camerota started the day in great form for the 1st leg and ended the first leg tied for the leg. Todd Lodwick led the US across the line for the 2nd leg. Johnny Spillane lost a bit of ground in the 3rd leg, but the gap was no problem for Billy as he quickly bridged the gap. Austria and the US were 1/2 coming into the stadium with Austria pulling away in the last 300 meters to repeat as Olympic Champions.
