Kingston’s Ed Drake continued to impress at the Olympic Winter Games with a 32nd-place finish in the super-G on Friday.

Drake’s time of 1:33.20 was 2.86 seconds off the time set by gold medallist, Aksel Lund Svindal of Norway.

The 24-year-old said: "It was good fun today. It was really cool and I really enjoyed it.

"I skied some sections really well, but there were too many mistakes – that’s ski racing though.

“I didn’t ski as well as I hoped to or wanted to, but I had some good turns in there. It’s just a case of stringing them all together.

 "It's no secret that these Games are not really where I'm looking to peak - it's definitely a springboard to the next Olympic Winter Games so I don't go there totally in awe of the occasion. 

 "This is where I want to be the whole time - in the thick of it.

"I want to be in amongst the big boys, It's great to be around these guys, see how they act on the hills and learn from them.

"I’m enjoying taking in the experience, there’s nothing quite like the Olympic Winter Games.”

Drake finished 38th on his Olympic debut in the men’s downhill last Monday.
