Out if nowhere, America's Karly Shorr has been rad to watch! Slipped out on the final #slopestyle jump but she has another go!

And the 19-year-old Californian falls on her third jump, earning a score of 39.

FALSE ALARM - 1st place qualifier Anna Gasser acciently dropped in and had to hike back up! #slopestyle

by Skyler Wilder via twitter 2/9/2014 9:42:01 AM
OK, this time for real. Anna Gasser to take her #slopestyle run! Will we see that cab double cork 900 I heard about?? #Sochi2014

Dang! Anna Gasser through a monster rodeo on the first jump but then had a little sketch after landing the second jump #slopestyle

by Skyler Wilder via twitter 2/9/2014 9:44:25 AM
Back to the top of the #slopestyle order, X Games champ @SiljeNorendal about to go for her final run - she needs a perfect one!

by Skyler Wilder via twitter 2/9/2014 9:45:24 AM
Doesn't quite land her second jump and earns just a 49. That completes the first run.

Many women riders dragging hands, scrubbing on #slopestyle landings, bodes well for perfectionist @Jme_Anderson , in 2nd after 1st of 2 runs

by Jason Blevins via twitter 2/9/2014 9:45:56 AM
Before @SiljeNorendal takes her 2nd run, know all these women are making history in the first #slopestyle event #EverybodyWins

A Bode Miller race cannot end simply. He says he did not make a mistake, others including his coach say otherwise.

by NYT Olympics via twitter 2/9/2014 9:47:06 AM
More Miller: "I would have loved to win. It's a premier event. But I don't think I would have changed much today."

by NYT Olympics via twitter 2/9/2014 9:47:11 AM
More from Bode Miller: "This will be a tough one to swallow. I have a lot of races left. The middle part of the course slowed down."

by NYT Olympics via twitter 2/9/2014 9:47:18 AM
Bode Miller: "The lower visibility hurt me more than most guys. I ski on the edge and had to change things from the training runs."

Odd remarks from a guy who clearly looked disappointed at the end of his run, but then... that's Bode.
