冬残奥会部分比赛项目

1. Wheelchair Curling 轮椅冰壶

Wheelchair curling is an adaptation of curling for athletes with a disability affecting their lower limbs or gait. It is played with the same rocks and on the same ice as regular curling, though the rocks are thrown from a stationary wheelchair and there is no sweeping. Rocks may be thrown by hand while leaning over the side of the wheelchair, or pushed by a delivery stick.

轮椅冰壶是为下肢有残疾或者走路不便的运动员设计的比赛。轮椅冰壶运动员必须坐在轮椅上进行比赛，比赛采用和健全人同样的规则，差别仅在于轮椅冰壶比赛没有刷冰，且投壶者必需在固定的轮椅上掷壶。除了可以用手掷壶外，还可以用投掷杆掷壶。

2. Para cross-country skiing 残奥滑雪

Para cross-country skiing first appeared at the 1976 Winter Paralympic Games in Sweden. The competition is open to athletes with a physical impairment and vision impairment. As a recreational activity, it is widely practiced among winter sport lovers; however, some still use it as a means of transportation.

残奥滑雪首次出现在1976年的冬季瑞典残奥会上。身体和视觉方面有残疾的运动员可以参加这项比赛。作为一项休闲活动，残奥越野滑雪受到了很多冬季运动爱好者的欢迎，另外有一些人则把这项运动作为了自己的一种交通方式。

3. Para Snowboard 残奥单板滑雪

The para snowboard competition includes male and female athletes with a physical impairment such as spinal injury, cerebral palsy and amputation.

残奥单板滑雪比赛分男女项目，参赛选手均为残疾运动员。经过多年推广，残奥单板滑雪比赛首次作为高山滑雪项目的子项目出现在2014年的索契冬奥会上。

4. Para ice hockey 残奥冰球

Since its debut at Lillehammer 1994 Winter Games, the Paralympic version of ice hockey has quickly become one of the largest attractions for spectators. It is fast-paced, highly physical and played by male and female athletes with a physical impairment in the lower part of the body.
