First sports thread

Hi, i'm new to this site. i just posted some landscape pictures over on another part of the site, but my main passion is sports photography. So I thought i'd come here and post some of my latest skiing shots. I'd like to hear any comments or suggestions anyone has.
For all of these shots i used a Canon 1D MK2 with a 28-200 2.8 EF lense. most of the time on TV around 500
#1

#2

#3 My flash died on this shooting day so i thought i'd try some stuff directly into the sun.

#4

#5

#6 Night is tough

#7

#8

Sorry about the image size, i'm going to have to get that down.
Any comments?
