Notes

PyeongChang 2018 – skeleton suit and helmet belonging to Elizabeth YARNOLD (GBR). This type of suit, which is frictionresistant thanks to its honeycomb structure, creates a turbulence effect that reduces wind resistance against the body. Despite criticism, the IBSF concluded that it did not break the rules. Athlete donation
