What kind of question is that? The winter Olympics isn't for countries located in the tropical/equatorial zones. You need snow to train for such Olympics.

Meyle,
I recall I was the only black guy in the rink skating for those many years and this was in a predominately Haitian/Somali/Lebanese neighborhood. Its funny cause in the evenings, the rink besides the basketball court was packed with Somalis and madows with no white person in sight. I would barely go though. Skating makes you tired for a while but I only focused on basketball after I quit skating.
Hodan,
Watching it is boring. I refused to even watch it when my city team was in the NHL finals years ago. But playing it is a different story. Its the most fun sport to play. But it can be pricey to play which is why not a lot play it. So expensive in fact that soccer is the most popular here with the most registered players lol and no one even watches soccer here. People just need an inexpensive activity for their kids to do
But I assure you isn't shit. Try it. I'm sure you'll like it.
I am,
