Today's cookie is dedicated to Half-Pipe Skiing which is making it's official Winter Olympic debut in Sochi! Competitors perform tricks while riding snow skis on a half-pipe. A sport considered more dangerous than traditional ski events, helmets are a requirement during competitions and some practice facilities have airbags on the side of the pipe during practice runs. Look for the half-pipe men's competition on February 18th and the women's on February 20th taking place at the Rosa Khutor Extreme Park near Krasnaya Polyana, Russia!
