Not much for lenses, looks like he is only shooting close-in events and not any skiing.

Agreed, I expected to see a long lens in his list.

Let's not forget the CPS has a very strong presance in Sochi. To the pro members there are probably hundreds of big lenses available to check out. Though in most cases the loaners are not guarenteed, it's possible that some of the bigger pros have them always available for use.
I'm just guessing on that, but for sure, on a first come first served basis, one can be checked out. ;-)

I agree also, I expected to see longer non zoom telephoto lens. Given the predominant Canon branding if he feels the need to go long, I am sure he could reserve some from CPS.
Still not a shabby set of camera bodies.
