Let's see if one of them gets in I’d honestly love to see all three. I’ve found them all highly entertaining to watch. Ice Climbing is what I really want though. First off, it would be the only winter sport not to use skates or skis. It’s unique from ever other sports on the program (meaning we’re adding a 8th sport, and not just another discipline). Plus, there are actually a lot of competitive countries (including @OlympicIRL). The events are super fun to watch, much like sport climbing, as they are just the winter equivalent. An event in Denver last year had a crowd of 25,000 and the atmosphere was awesome. The event will already feature as a demo sport at the 2020 YOG (hopefully full inclusion in 2024), so at least it’s on the IOC’s radar. So to me, 2026 seems like the right time to add it. This year’s season will feature 5 World Cup Events, a European tour (4 events), an Asian Tour (3 events, one of which will be in @MHSN, and another in ), a Youth World Championship, YOG demonstration, and three continental championships. phelps, OlympicIRL and heywoodu 3 “Sport has the power to change the world.

I think I’d have to go with the right. “Sport has the power to change the world. It has the power to inspire.
