Figure skating, ice dancing, pairs, speed skating, downhill skiing, skeleton, and am getting more into curling although I’m still learning the rules.
Has anyone here seen “I, Tonya?” I really liked it.

I am a skier, so the alpine and freestyle skiing events are my favorite. However I also love the bobsled, luge, hockey and so many others.
I enjoy the winter Olympics so much more than the summer ones.

I love the Winter Olympics. Cross country skiing and biathlon may be the only two I don't really want to watch. I  curling, hockey and figure skating the most. |

I love most of the winter sports. Downhill skiing, figure skating, curling, ski jumping. I sit and shake my head in disbelief at the crazy danger of the luge and the skeleton. In fact, curling is probably the only sport that doesn’t seem to involve the athletes having a death wish!  |

I love the winter Olympics! Love it all! Most of the Curling team is from northern MN, and practice over here a lot. So will keep an eye on them. I esp love all the figure skating.

We will watch curling. If the timing of the hockey games work, we will watch that. There's at least one Michigan native on the roster.
My mom will watch ice skating. I might check it out.

I love figure skating. I was never able to skate and I wish I could have, because it's such a beautiful sport and skaters make it look so easy.
I'm also a bobsled fan. Fun to watch the luge.

I LOVE having it on during the day no matter what's on. I love everything about the Olympics from start to finish. Including pre trial stuff. We've been watching that.
My favorites are the Luge, Snowboarding, Iceskating. Same for Dh but minus the ice skating (he loathes lol!) . We watching curling but no matter how many times they explain i'm still confused! lol!

We will have cbc on from day one to day 16! Curling in a nutshell: Whoever is closest to the inner circle gets the points. One team tries to block the other from getting closest. Basically it..😄 |

By far, my favorite is watching the snowboarders. I’m a skier but snowboarding in the Olympics looks like so much fun!

My favorite event is a toss up between snowboarding and ice hockey. Snowboarding because it's something I can do. Not well, but I know how do it.  And hockey, because, well I just like hockey. I like the other outdoor ski/snow events, too. And, I'm intrigued by curling. My least favorite - all skating events, sans hockey. |

Figure skating - particularly pairs as I find it the most inventive.

I love skiing. As I taught for 15 yrs and my dad ran a ski school for 40 yrs. I also like the freestyle. One of my dads students wrote the original book on freestyle in the 1970’s
