Love all snowboarding competitions (so excited that slopestyle is an event this year!), hockey, figure skating, bobsled, and curling! Curling is so detailed which I think makes it fun to watch. I also like downhill skiing, the ski jump, and speed skating....so many events that are seriously all so amazing to watch, with amazing competitors.

My 9yo saw ski jumping for the first time this weekend. She was enthralled, and any time I wasn't watching with her, she would holler out the distance of each jumper.

I'm right here.

It's all good stuff! The height & speed these jumpers, snowboarders and down-hillers achieve is absolutely mind boggling. What amazes me most though is how they stop on a dime at the end. It's like driving in the snow...for those who have never driven in the snow & ice, here is a tip....DRIVING in it is easy....STOPPING can be the challenging part! It looks like these skiers are stopping from a 90mph tuck in under 50 feet! Good God I think they're going to hit that wall every time!
