The snow sports have the most disciplines, like ski jumping, biathlon or alpine skiing. Ice sports are pretty self-explanatory too: ice skating and ice hockey are in this category. Sliding sports comprise luge, bob, skeleton races, which are held at one and the same venue, the Olympic Sliding Centre.
