declines men's cross, but accepts parallel GS and slopestyle/big air.

So Switzerland is in. If they will reject the quota Argentina will complete! @konig

How many quotas does Germany have?

Apparently so far 11 athletes have been nominated (Ramona Hofmeister, Selina Jörg, Carolin Langenhorst, Patrick Bussler, Stefan Baumeister (PGS), Paul Berg, Martin Nörl, Konstantin Schad, Jana Fischer (Cross), Silvia Mittermüller, Johannes Höpfl (Freestyle)), but two more athletes (Anke Wöhrer and Alexander Bergmann (PGS)) haven't been nominated so far, because they didn't reach the national qualification criteria.

Thanks, so possibly Germany will reject one quota in womens PGS and one quota in mens PGS.

Strange to see the US don't care about events like Snowboard Parallel Slalom or Ski Cross.

I think the way FIS quotas work is part of the problem. Why invest in developing athletes in parallel if all that means is that it would need to reduce the number of athletes in events where the US is already strong?
