    - the best. the volleyball one is also awesome -- nm - Beaker 🍺 Jul 24, 08:57
    - HUGE Studio C fan! But the real problem is people running into each other. Looking at the ball on the ground rather than at the opponent. -- nm - Landbeck Jul 24, 08:57
- The one where you're skiing with a gun. Biathlon? -- nm - Strongbad Jul 24, 08:49 1
  - Oh. So if we're doing both Winter and Summer. Any of the non cross country skiing events ☠️ -- (edited) - JD Jul 24, 08:56
- Surfing. Any of the combat sports (Taekwondo, Judo, Boxing) -- nm - Mop🧹 Jul 24, 08:48

  - I would consider this but I don't think I can even lift the pole so can't even make the run so can't miss the plant - JD Jul 24, 08:49
- i'd say boxing OR surfing -- nm* - Beaker 🍺 Jul 24, 08:36 1
  - Hmmm..there's gloves and headgear for boxing. Oh! and weight classes so I'd like to think that'd be a more long term CTE type thing for me -- (edited) - JD Jul 24, 08:45
