2026 Winter Olympics

[Big_rock_show]

I'm a figure skating junkie for sure.

But I also love (both skiing/snowboarding) half pipe and aerials

BTW, @Big_rock_show , I appreciate how you made the effort to like everyone's posts so far. I wish more people did that. It's nice to be seen, even on the internet.

Awww, that’s so nice of you! I started the post because I genuinely wanted to hear everyone’s answers

All of figure skating- the team event especially is exciting, want to see if USA can repeat as gold medalists. Who will represent AIN?

Curling is always fun to watch.

Freestyle Skiing.

Speed skating and luge.

Ice Hockey will be exciting especially the women's rivalry between Canada and the US.

I love the winter Olympics. I'll watch just about anything that's fast or involves flight.

The women’s hockey is high on my priority list because I follow college hockey so closely and there will be like 5 or 6 Badgers on the team!!

I’m going to try to watch some sports. Figure skating and ice dancing although I’m not obsessed like i was 20 years ago.

I’d like to check out women’s hockey, speed sports like luge and skeleton, aerial and stunt stuff on skis.

I'm not SUPER into any of the winter sports specifically, but I'll watch whatever is on (and particularly like short track, aerials, and the ones where they snowboard down 4 at a time). My uncle is going to a few things (opening ceremonies, some women's hockey, and ski cross I think) so I'll probably watch out for those, and then I'm curious about the new sport (ski mountaineering) predominantly b/c it sounds so unpleasant I'm compelled to watch!

I’ve never heard of ski mountaineering. I hope I catch that one.

Can't wait for the Ice Dancing - really hoping Lilah Fear/Lewis Gibson (GB) can deliver and get a medal.
I'm also partial to a bit of Curling and those ski/ski-board races

For Russia it’s Petr Gumennik and Adelia Petrosyan. For Belarus it’s Viktoria Safonova. Only singles skaters were allowed to qualify.

Who do you take on the Men's figure skating as the third memeber. Maxim Naumov came 3rd. Jason brown bombed his fs. Went from 3rd to 12th on free skate with an 8th place finishing. It would suck for Maxim to be bumped by Jason again especially since Jason finished 8th. I know USAg will probably still take brown.

 

[irichluck21]

It should be Malinin, Torgashev, and Naumov

As much as I love Jason Brown, it sounds like he didn't bring it when needed. Maybe alternate based on season results vs the other men, but sounds like others have a better claim to the spots.
