So many tempting choices. 

 

But I can foresee skateboarding as being particularly annoying, so I’ve got to go with that.

Other for me: shooting. I see absolutely no merit in shooting guns as an Olympic discipline, I don't even consider it a sport really. I was surprised it wasn't on the list.

as many already know  imho many of the listed activities are not even to be considered "sports" and should all be thrown off the Games...

 

Artistic Swimming, Rhythmic Gymnastics, Trampoline, Park Skateboarding are just a few of them...

 

and I'd happily get rid of quite a few other sports from the current schedule...

 

but the poll is about 1 and only 1 sport to be removed...so, I picked the best "example" of non-sport activity (and the most boring to me)...Artistic Swimming, of course...

whatever drawn from the pot Basketball, Baseball, Softball ...or M Football, there too many team sports stealing plenty of quotas from other sports

Another interesting poll could be - which of these events would you like to see in the olympics again?

Canoe slalom - M C2

Canoe sprint - M K4 1000m

Cycling track - M 1km time trial / W 500m time trial

Cycling road - M Team time trial

Athletics - W 3000m

Shooting - M running target

Shooting - M / W double trap

Any other

None of them?

Shooting is definitely a wonderful sport. A sport of precision and accuracy like archery. I'm surprised you even thought of removing a sport like shooting.
