Skeleton at the Winter Olympics

Skeleton at the Winter Olympics

Skeleton was part of the Winter Olympic Games program when the games were held in St. Moritz in 1928 and again in 1948, but was then removed from the program. The sport discipline was reintroduced at the 2002 Winter Olympics, with both men's and women's events.
