Ha! Sums it up perfectly! I’ve just conducted a poll to see if my readers prefer the winter or summer Olympics. My partner and I rode on the Olympic Bobsleigh track in Tignes a couple of years ago – exhilarating and very scary! I only know one person mad enough to go down on the skeleton bob (the one where you lie face down on a ‘tea tray’). The G-force was so strong he could hardly lift his head and scuffed the skin off the end of his nose!

Ah, the modern sports.
There’s also that weird “Snow Parkour”. Basically a cross between “Teens On Skateboards” and “Trampolining Without A Trampoline”.
Good one.

Wow! I can’t even imagine what that kind of experience must be like! I like my winter activities slow; kudos to you for doing the fast ones.
