Field notes
The homepage distinguishes four forms—pairs snowdancing, synchronized skiing, snowboard dancing, and ski ballet—and explains the pairs format through shared timing and flowing turns. Its timeline places ski ballet’s Olympic demonstration appearances in Calgary in 1988 and Albertville in 1992, while links point to video archives and related stories. The meta description calls the 2027 circuit proposed; the 2030 and 2034 dates are presented on the page as an Olympic dream.
