Chaotic relays

The most amazing thing with short track speed skating is the relays. It seems so chaotic, which these photos may give an impression of, but still the skaters seem to have some kind of control and most of the exchanges seem to go without problems. How they manage I will never know ...

We got to see the womens relay semifinals on our second evening in Torino. The finals were skated tonight, and - of course - the Koreans won again. They have won 4 golds in these Games, all of them in short track speed skating.
