It is understood that the Genting stadium group has set up a total of 6 tracks such as slope obstacle courses, U-shaped track skills, and aerial skills, and held two major events and 20 small events of snowboarding and freestyle skiing. The Winter Olympics programme runs from January 30 to February 19 for 21 days, with 506 athletes from 36 countries competing in the Genting Venues Group.
The Genting Stadium Group Ski Track Shaping Team is composed of more than 50 Chinese and foreign shaping experts, and the most representative work is the Great Wall landscape on the slope obstacle course. Wang Shitong, deputy manager of the mountain operation of the Genting Stadium, introduced that the entire slope barrier track has undergone more than 20 days of shaping. The starting area of the track has built the appearance of a beacon on the Great Wall, and there is a very classical ancient house downwards, Wang Shitong said: "Su Yiming jumped on the house during the competition, and then did a flip down, I think everyone is impressed." Wang Shitong introduced that these inspirations come from Shanhaiguan, which is not only beautiful, but also has the practical function of windproof.
In order to ensure that athletes can perform at their best on the track without distraction, while strictly implementing the general policy, the venue will try to provide athletes, media and stakeholders with more thoughtful and accurate services as much as possible. In the recent period of competition operation, the venue has continuously optimized the service plan, and carefully provided various guarantees such as catering, transportation, medical treatment, volunteers, and meteorology.
The weather forecast shows that there will be blizzard weather in Zhangjiakou in the past two days. "When it snows heavily, you must not wait, but go with the flow." Shu Wen, deputy director of logistics of genting stadium group, said that the venue is very experienced in this area and has a professional ice shoveling and snow removal team to ensure it. This year, on this basis, mechanical and manual ice and snow removal forces have been added to ensure that the event can be carried out smoothly.

Shu Wen said that in some steep slopes or areas prone to icing, the venue will sprinkle some environmentally tested and environmentally certified snow melting agents. This snow melting agent is different from the previous salt, so it will not affect the road or the track.
