2026 Winter Olympic Games

I really like how happy they have most of them have been so far to just be there

Idk if it’s just not something I noticed with the men or the pairs this early on - most of them just seemed happy to have done their best skate and be in competition for the medals which feels quite different to just being happy to be there

The clip of the coaches featuring the constant view at figure skating, three mysterious people in yellow vests behind them

It works when you watch it directly on instagram



I think they are indeed medical stuff as when in short track few days ago one guy got his outfit cut by the blade other people dressed like them were helping him

Obsessed with the way one of them is just trying to get a better look and the coaches keep walking in front of him

I thought she put in a great performance, I can see why she's one to watch, seems like she can pull off some bigger jumps too but played it safe.

I thought she looked good! I read a week or two ago on Reddit that she has an injury (don't know if that's true) so hope that's not the reason for playing it safe.

Postponed events due to the weather is not sitting well with my feelings of how vacant my days will become once the games are over.
I'm clearly more obsessed than I thought i was

Me too. I’ve actually enjoyed this years winter olympics more so then I have previous olympics. The snowboarding and figure skating in particular. Milan has been a great host!

Aww I'm really happy the young Chinese girl has qualified for Thursday.

I'm with the BBC for big air because the commentary is just elite. Alot of crashing, this snow is epic.

D+ on my phone for the curling.

We're running out of events

Are they commentating the paralympics? (I don’t actually know)

 

[veronica71]

I’m not sure

Omg I’m loving the joy in this big air final. Love when they can’t believe how well they did

me too! that lovely group hug was so cute

i just met mac forehand for the first time and i’m already very attached to him. what a great final!

 

[Lola123]

This is so wholesome! I love how happy these winter Olympians are for each other, they keep going on about the community and I really believe it!

 

[Lola123]

It’s gonna be an uphill battle for GB men’s curling to be in the semi’s! I’m not feeling positive tonight

It was amazing, I watched it with my local commentary and it was so crazy that I will watch the top 3's final runs again from replay with english one. I know nothing about big air but by the end I was INVESTED.

I dislike Alysa’s hair so much

Can’t say it anywhere else because the moment US atheletes appear on screen it’s just pure glazing

 

[bitterntwisted]

I dislike Alysa’s hair so much

It's supposed to represent the rings of a tree, the passage of time, growth. When I first saw it, it reminded me of a raccoon's tail.

 

[OOps2022]

Valid female reaction for every occassion when a man is asking a women with achievements a question that has a critical or "not enough" undertone

especially her laugh at the beginning

There so much we don't get to see which is essential to make viewing the games happen.
I know it's his job so it's expected but this is cool, I think I'd like one of the shelter contraptions

I missed the coverage yesterday, not that BBC seem to show anything besides curling anyway! But is Taylor Lawrence out injured in the bobsleigh or will he be back for 4 man today? It looked like he had been swapped out very last minute for Leon in yesterday's 2 man final
