On this subject, I'm sensing there are any number of non-winter sports that could be played on snow or ice.

Could that be reversed? Snowboarding down a sand dune, for example? Curling on grass...

Heather, I'd pay good money to go to the top of the big air ramp. It is a massive structure, peering down on Pyeongchang like the lair of a Bond villain. However, I'm not sure I'd fancy snowboarding down it. It's a recipe for falling over. Which is what happened to Aimee Fuller...

Heather Rickman: How about British Bulldog on ice. I would pay good money to watch that!

During my chat with Nick Buckland and Penny Coomes on Saturday, I brought up the fact that Coomes seems a bit obsessed with their cat, Milo.

She lights up as she tells me the story of their feline companion.

"We live in Novine, Michigan and – bless it – there’s nothing to do there," said the 28-year-old from Maidstone.

"One of the things we would do on a Friday night is go and have a meal and then there’s a pet store where you can go and play with them, like therapy.

"I really wanted a dog but we couldn’t have one because of the nature of our sport.

"One afternoon we just went in to the cat adoption centre. We got the sick cat but he’s got such a good personality. It’s someone to go home to , who’s happy to see you. We miss him a lot."

And, in this triumvirate of British action, the short program in the ice dance is under way. There's quite a story attached to Nick Buckland and Penny Coomes, the latter having battled back from shattering her kneecap into eight pieces. They've been working with Chris Dean, who knows a thing or two about winning medals.

Four skiers have gone and Molly Summerhayes' first run has her in fourth place.

A place in the final looks unlikely.

Rowan Cheshire is out of the gate in a little while.

Speed down, too. I'm not sure that will be challenging the top of the leaderboard.

Here she goes. Red jacket, blue trousers. Grabs, not much height...

While that's going on, the women's halfpipe qualifiers have also got under way. It's an identical format - two runs, best score counts, 12 go through.

Molly Summerhayes is next to peform tricks down the tube of snow...

It’s mid-morning here in Pyeongchang but it’s already rocking with plenty of head-banging tunes to get the crowd in the mood for the new Winter Olympic event.

It’s warm and there’s no wind - the complete opposite to slopestyle last week!

I think I’ve overdone it on the layers today!

Some big tricks will be going down but you’ve got to land them!

Aimee just sat back on the landing. But that was the first double of the day - she was so, so close.

Doubles have become almost standard in women's snowboarding now. Aimee landed this track in Sochi four years ago.

Only 25.00 for Aimee Fuller, which will be nowhere near a place in the final.

It will all be down to that second run.

Has she nailed that? Two backflips, but a brief sit in the snow on landing.

Wait for the score...

Fuller is miles in the ski. Off she goes...

Good lord, they aren't kidding about that ramp. You could get a plane off the ground from that.

Here comes Aimee Fuller...

Most of the women who competed in slopestyle will return for the big air - and the weather is more favourable this time, thankfully.

They had to battle blustery conditions with a nunber of riders claiming the event should not have gone ahead on day three.

Anna Gasser, who was outspoken about slopestyle, will be the woman to beat in big air, having bossed the X Games and World Cup this season.

Aimee Fuller will be competing for Great Britain and will be looking to better her 17th place finish in slopestyle.

There are 26 athletes, with the top 12 going through to Friday's final. There are two qualification runs, with the best run counting.

Big air is one of the most dynamic disciplines in snowboarding. This is just one jump and asks the rider for their best trick.

The women have been raving about this jump in training, they say it is incredible.

I think today could be a brilliant spectacle.

Let's tackle the big air first, shall we?

It's pretty simple. Competitors perform tricks off a huge slope and are judged. The ramp in Pyeongchang is 49m, the biggest in the world.

Each rider has two jumps, with their best score counting. The top 12 make it through top the final.

Aimee Fuller of Great Britain will be the second to go.
