What is the 'BEST' Winter Olympic event?

[ZenGum]

Snowboard half-pipe.
It is beautiful and spectacular even when they don't crash.
Sod the judges, I don't care who wins.

Ski-jumping, only because of Eddie the Eagle.

The half pipe is entertaining, but the whim of the judges carries too much weight. I think it's no better than figure skating. I don't know the names of all these events but the snowboard race with 4 people on the track at a time is a hoot to watch.

I was watching the qualifying short track speed skating relay last night, and it looked like a mosh pit with all these people crowding on the ice tagging each other.
