Downhill Lyrics
". . . has been absolutely sensational in training and a big win in Vega and Lauberhorn, the Europeans really didn't like him, particularly the Austrians, they criticized him, they called him names. He stood up under it all, he's just an amazing youngster."
"That's right, they may not like it very much, but the facts of life are here he is standing at the starting gate of the Olympic downhill as the favorite, and he's only been on the world cup circuit one full year, with one victory. And the reason, just as you said, he's been that great at training."
"Also interеsting, Bob, is at the top of another Olympic downhill, late class of 1980, Bill Johnson as thе forerunner."
"The thing that's good about this downhill form is that it's relatively flat, it favors a glider like Johnson. You can see him here at this very important turn up at the top where he tucks his hip in. He glides very well, he's gotta be careful on the top not to lose any time in the turns . . ."
