Classic Winter Sports (the OGs)

 

Classic Winter Sports (the OGs)

These are tradition. If winter had a rulebook, these are on page one.

• Ice Hockey – Fast, physical, zero mercy. The headline act.

• Figure Skating – Grace, power, drama. Art on ice.

• Speed Skating – Blink and you’ll miss it. Pure speed.

• Short Track Speed Skating – Chaos, strategy, wipeouts.

• Curling – Chess on ice. Quiet but deadly.

• Bobsleigh – Speed + gravity + courage.

• Skeleton – Face-first insanity. Respect to anyone brave enough.

• Luge – Same fear, different position.

Snow Sports (Mountains Don’t Play)

This is where winter shows muscle.

• Alpine Skiing (Downhill, Slalom, Giant Slalom) – Precision at warp speed.

• Cross-Country Skiing – Endurance wins here.

• Ski Jumping – Gravity optional.

• Nordic Combined – Ski jumping + cross-country. No excuses.

• Snowboarding – Halfpipe, Slopestyle, Big Air. Style counts.

• Freestyle Skiing – Tricks, flips, flexing rights.

• Ski Mountaineering – Climbing mountains on skis. New-school, all grit.

Team & Mixed Events (Vibes + Strategy)

Because winter is better together.

• Ice Hockey (Men & Women)

• Mixed Team Ski Events

• Mixed Relay Biathlon

• Mixed Curling Doubles
