Extractions: and the Winter Games Go directly to the Mission Spirit of 2010 Olympic Forum Portal The 2010 Olympic winter sports competitions are to be held in Supernatural B.C.. For recreation and sports there is no better place than British Columbia. With our towering mountains carved by glacier fed rivers we have it all for world class winter sports. Olympic sports winter competitions include: Biathlon, Bobsleigh, Curling, Ice Hockey, Luge, Skating, Skeleton, Skiing, Snowboarding. The word biathlon stems from the Greek word for two contests. In this case cross-country skiing and rifle marksmanship which makes it one of the most practical winter sports. Rock paintings found in Norway depict bow hunters on wood skis and date back to about 3000 B.C. It was formally introduced as an Olympic sports winter event in 1960 though it had made many demonstration appearances since the first Winter Sports Olympics in France. See the history of the Olympics There are three events in Olympic Bobsledding: two-man, four-man and two-woman. Sleds that look similar to the modern day bobsled have been raced for more than 200 years. Some historians say the sport started in Switzerland in the late 1800s when someone put runners on a tobbagan to get more spead. Early racerswould bob back and forth in an effort to get more speed. It failed to increase the speed but the name stuck. Probably the most famous bobsled team of all was the 1988 Jamaican bobsled team. On January 5, 1898 the organized competition was held with five-passenger sleds. Two of the passengers had to be women. The winter sport became an Olympic sport when it was included in the first Winter Olympics at Chamonix, France, in 1924.

Racine went on to finish fifth with new partner Gea Johnson, while the "other" U.S. team of Jill Bakken and Vonetta Flowers stunned everyone by sweeping to the gold. The public turmoil and the Bakken-Flowers win overshadowed a long-term trend in the sport: The German teams have caught up with and perhaps surpassed the Americans. German drivers took three of the top four spots in this year's World Cup final standings, while the U.S. team struggled with injuries and other absences.

Submit A Special Request Olympic Sports History BOBSLEDDING The bobsled was developed in Switzerland late in the 19th century when someone put runners on a toboggan to get greater speed down the famous Cresta Run at St. Moritz. The sport of racing bobsleds down the mountain quickly became popular among British and American visitors. The new sled got its name because early racers thought they could get even more speed by bobbing their bodies backward and forward. They soon realized it didn't work, but the name stuck. The first organized competition in the new sport was held on the Cresta Run on January 5, 1898, with five-passenger sleds. (Two of the passengers had to be women.) For better steering, they were equipped with four runners, positioned on axles much like the four wheels of a car. With the new design, speeds on the mountainside became dangerously fast, so an artificial bobsled run with a gentler slope was built at St. Moritz in 1902. Bobsledding spread rapidly to other Alpine countries. By 1914, when the first European championships took place at St. Moritz, there were more than a hundred bobsled runs in Europe.
