    The countdown has just ramped up to the Milan-Cortina Winter Olympics with the ticking over of the new year


    The Games are officially opened on February 6th, with snowboarder Zoi Sadowski-Synnott looking to add to her collection of three medals across the last two Olympics.

    The 24-year-old says now being somewhat a senior member in the squad, she's excited to see how the big Kiwi contingent get on...



    Sadowski-Synnott tunes up with a couple of events in Aspen later this month.
