Men’s and women’s snowboarding made their Olympic debuts at the Nagano Games in 1998 with giant slalom and halfpipe competitions. The discipline proved an instant success and returned to Salt Lake City four years later with parallel giant slalom and halfpipe competitions. In Turin, snowboard cross also made its debut. In this event four riders race across a course studded with jumps, bumps and huge turns.
While snowboarding offers almost unlimited options for riders to express themselves, there are three main styles of snowboarding, each associated with a certain type of equipment, terrain, and competition: freestyle, freeriding, and alpine (or freecarving).
