Is Danny Davis ready to dethrone Shaun White on Sochi's halfpipe? dpo.st/1de8nja by @jasontblevins

How to know you're in a crowd of Canadian men? Even at the #Sochi2014 Olympics they are talking NHL hockey.

Team USA will have all three of its skiers in the finals of the inaugural Olympic women's slopestyle event at the Sochi Games. Devin Logan (pictured), Julia Krass and Keri Herman all advanced out of the qualifying round early Tuesday and will compete for a spot on the medal podium beginning at 4 a.m. ET.

We'll also be following the U.S. men's curling match against China, the women's cross country skiing and men's snowboard halfpipe qualifying rounds beginning at 5 a.m. ET.

At 27, Shaun White is the man in pipe. And snowboarders would love to stick it to the man. My column: denverpost.com/kiszla/ci_2510… via @denverpost

Americans Shaun White, Taylor Gold and Danny Davis need to finish at least in the top 9 of their group to advance to the semifinals.

by Ross Maghielse via Digital First Media 2/11/2014 12:15:27 PM
Also, some women's cross country sprint quarterfinals results are starting to trickle in. No Americans have qualified for the semis just yet, but we'll keep you posted.

Photo finish between Swede & Norwegian in a X-country skiing women's quarterfinal race, both advance.

by Kurt Kragthorpe via twitter 2/11/2014 12:17:22 PM
Alright, Taylor Gold of USA is up and about to start his run.

by Ross Maghielse via Digital First Media 2/11/2014 12:18:19 PM
Nice run by Gold. He had a couple close calls, but landed everything and got a solid score of 81.50.

by Ross Maghielse via Digital First Media 2/11/2014 12:19:32 PM
Stacked heat in #snowboard #halfpipe w/ ShaunWhite, DannyDavis, Ipod and rookie @Taylor_Gold stomps his A-run, White follows with 95.75

by Jason Blevins via twitter 2/11/2014 12:21:25 PM
Shaun White does Shaun White-type things and has a great opening run. Looked effortless and comes with huge score of 95.75. Dude is a stud.

by Ross Maghielse via Digital First Media 2/11/2014 12:21:52 PM
Some heavy-hitters don't seem troubled by #sochi2014 halfpipe, @shaun_white just cleaned a technical run for 95.75p then Ipod washes out

by Jason Blevins via twitter 2/11/2014 12:23:41 PM
Briefly going back to men's curling, Team USA was defeated by China 9-4. The two U.S. curling teams are a combined 0-4 at these Olympics.

Shaun White puts down monster run of 95.75 in qualifications. The dude is moving on.

I am bib number one today. That means I will be the first girl EVER to ski jump in an Olympic event. ALL SMILES :)

Canadians go 1-3 in women's freeski slopestyle at the park, and dedicate medals to pioneer Sarah Burke.

U.S. medal hope Kikkan Randall shockingly fails to advance from X-country sprint quarters. Was dominating heat but fell to 4th, barely out.

by Kurt Kragthorpe via twitter 2/11/2014 12:36:19 PM
Danny Davis has still yet to go in his snowboard halfpipe run. He'll be the second to last of group 2 before it resets for riders' second runs. Shaun White is already booked into the finals and Taylor Gold is in good position to join Greg Brentz in the semifinals.
