I watched this for the first time ever last night and it seemed pretty cool.
There were four dude racing down a a track on snowboards, it was brutal.

Two guys got totally wiped out halfway through it!

That's because we don't quite have the same winters as you here. A little flurry of snow here and there, and that's as good as it gets (or bad, depending on how you look at it) and our snow isn't the same as yours, we get slushy stuff.

Therefore, your million competitors have a huge advantage over us.

Of course you are going to be better, you have weather to practice with. It's like saying you lot are better at rounders because you are the only Nation of the planet remotely interested in it.
