A Three Second Sport

One of the commentators in the freestyle aerials tonight described this as a "three-second sport" and I thought it was a particularly memorable term for an extremely difficult sport.
Congrats to Canada's aerialists who qualified tonight for three of the twelve spots in the finals.
And just to prove to Canadian fans that any country's athletes can choke, blow it, screw up, fail to execute, or whatever you want to call it, tonight the top freestyle aerialist in the world, Belarus's Anton Kushnir, tilted during his second jump and then blew the landing. So he finished 15th.
