I'm not sure it's actually added yet, but I know there's  a lot of people working right now to get it in for 2010. Halfpipe snowboarding was only added 18 months before the Winter games so it could still happen.

I really hope they add it cause skiing half pipe is much more interesting to watch than snowboarding.  I hope that they dont go overboard though and make them like the x-games.

Marathons/walking/road racing doesn't really count, they're not the kind of sports you watch, they're the kind of sports you "check in" on.

In my opinion, Dressage. It's just a horse trotting around for a while. Boring as buggery. More so in fact.

What's with this talk of all Olympic Sports are boring.

Granted, the majority of them are extremely dull, but the table tennis is . The pace those games move at and the insane spin (nobody mention meat) they can impart on the ball. That shit is exciting to watch. Assuming the director isn't a spacktard...

I think that's probably the main, uhh, issue (for lack of a better term) with the Olympics. Many of the sports aren't entertaining to watch unless you've done them yourself and know what's going on and know how amazing these athletes are.

e.g., I really want to watch Taekwondo because I did it for a long time and I think the sparring will be awesome. But to someone who's never done it, it'll look like a bunch of feet shuffling with an occasional kick (like how watching fencing was for me).
Same for swimming. I used to be on a swim team when I was younger, so when I watch those people in Beijing swim, I think it's amazing how fast they are and what perfect technique they have.
