What are you most looking forward to at the 2026 Winter Olympics?

I can’t wait for hockey, alpine skiing, and snowboarding!

I'm rooting for ancient crone Lindsey Vonn to show that old people still got it. Also, a previous "olympic boyfriend" is on her coaching staff, so I'm hoping he gets some air time (Aksel Lund Svindal).

I'm also interested if Malinin can deliver in figure skating.

Also, curling.

The Opening Ceremonies.

This will be the first Winter Olympics without Team Shuster participating since 2002. It's kind of like the 2024 Olymipcs without Chusovitina, but Chusovitina is older than Josh Shuster and competed in more Olympics.

Skating, short track, snowboarding

 

[MaryClare]

Figure skating, hockey, ski jump, freestyle snowboard, skeleton.

Mr Mary Clare and I are going to see one of the hockey matches and I’m hoping to manage to see something else too. I’m very excited, I haven’t been to a Winter Olympics since Sochi

I love getting addicted to curling every four years. I always watch figure skating and dip into the various acro sports. The cross races are fun….I think I’ll watch most winter Olympic sports with the exception of ice hockey and the biathlon.

I don’t take time off for winter games but I will have it on whenever I can.

Definitely hockey. Hopefully some of my Red Wings get named to teams.

I love the Winter Olympics - obsessed with ski jumping and snowboard slopestyle, but I'll happily sit in front of moguls, big air, halfpipe, speed skating....
Winter sports are insane, but they're so fun to watch.

(I'm largely indifferent to figure skating/ice dance, which the algorithm has trouble believing - seems to think if I like gymnastics I should be into artistic skating too.)

 

[RedBirdie]

Hockey. I'll be rooting for Sweden or Finland to win gold.

I love watching long track speed skating, especially the longer distances. Plus curling, cross country skiing, luge, bobsled.

I'm excited for figure skating, hockey, and snowboarding.

Figure skating. I don’t really care for Alyssa Liu’s skating all that much, but her comeback story is really awesome and I would love to see her do well.

Not excited at all about the return of Eteri and her athletes to the Olympic stage.
