Dear algorithm, show people our modern games reimagined as retro games:
Nintendo Game Boy fantasy game cover titled The Dark Queen of Mortholme, showing a hero-character with a glowing sword facing the dark queen as a shadowy creature. Dark fantasy artwork, moody colors, and classic handheld RPG style on a purple background. PlayStation game cover for Atomic Owl, featuring a cyberpunk owl-like warrior with a glowing sword and electric blue energy effects. Neon sci-fi visuals, futuristic city background, and bold retro console game aesthetics. Nintendo GameCube game cover titled Stories of Somnia, depicting a cozy fantasy adventure scene with a scarf-wearing character, flying dreamkin, and starry skies. Whimsical art style, soft colors, and story-driven turn-based RPG vibes. Dreamcast game cover for Skijoring, colorful retro-style artwork of two cartoon skijorers. Bright red background, bold blue and orange graphics, and early-2000s arcade sports game aesthetic.

Demo sports like dog sled, ski ballet and skijoring once appeared at the Winter Olympics — some became permanent, others did not. #WFDD #WinterOlympics #DemonstrationSports
Dog sled, ski ballet and other sports you could once see at the Winter Olympics
For many decades, Olympic Games included "demonstration sports." Some, like curling, became part of the permanent roster. But others, like skijoring, didn't stick around.

Skijoring should make a come back. Also a dogsled race would be most interesting.

I wonder what made the difference between curling and skijoring. Was it just popularity or something more?

Aha, in aforementioned research, I discovered skijoring. Like water skiing, but on a frozen lake behind a galloping horse. Utterly terrifying.

Sure, and for watching. But skijoring with dogs is a great way to exercise huskies! Usually on cross-country skis, and there’s a whole racing scene.

Finally was a calm enough morning to go skijoring before work. Still managed to see multiple ICE cars going to and from Theo Wirth and stupid DHS spy helicopter went right over my head. #AbolishICE #mpls #Minnesota

You will like our indie game if you played these games:

- Snowboard Kids
- Crazy Taxi
- SSX Tricky
Skijoring game artwork: bright, minimalist illustrated image showing a stylized skier being pulled by another character in a dynamic pose. The background uses bold blue and orange shapes, with motion lines suggesting speed. The word Skijoring appears in large, playful lettering across the center. Snowboard Kids (Nintendo 64) cover art: cartoon characters snowboarding down a mountain. The characters have exaggerated features, bright outfits, and playful expressions, with rocky cliffs and a snowy slope in the background. The title 'Snowboard Kids' appears big and prominently at the top. Crazy Taxi cover art: a chaotic city street scene with a yellow taxi driving wildly downhill. A driver leans out of the car, grinning, while pedestrians react dramatically. Groceries fly through the air, buildings tilt, and the Crazy Taxi logo appears in the top right. SSX Tricky (PlayStation 2) cover art: three stylized snowboarders standing confidently. They wear bold, futuristic winter clothing, sunglasses, and helmets. A large SSX Tricky logo dominates the background with icy and graphic design elements.

These two go to CampCT (my sister’s house) in 8 days! They are very ready to start their couch potato season, while I head to Alaska for ITI. 18 days until race start.

screen shot of "What is skijoring?" What is skijoring? The two main ways to skijor don’t have much in common. In Europe, a lone skier navigates a riderless horse around an oval track, racing shoulder-to-shoulder with other competitors. In the American West, a rider guides the horse through an obstacle course while the skier navigates gates, lands jumps, and sometimes catches rings, all while managing roughly 33 feet of rope at speeds that can reach 40 mph. What does it feel like to travel on horse-drawn skis? Zhimanskova says the sensation is similar to waterskiing: sitting back slightly against the pull of the rope, keeping the knees flexed, and relying on arm and leg strength to stay upright. “It might be a bit easier than water skiing, because with waterskiing, you have to go fast to stay afloat,” she says. “With a horse, you can go slower.” black and white photo of several horses trotting/running while pulling people behind them on skis, "Skijoring" modern photo of "Skijoring" with a horse running, pulling a man behind it on skis. this photo is more dramatic, mid-motion of the horse in the air, sweat around the harness and the man closing his eyes to avoid getting snow in his face that's been flung into the air from the horses' speed.

What is "skijoring"? It's a sport in which skiers are pulled along by horses, which started as a form of winter transportation in Scandinavia. Popular Science explains more.
