Speed skiing was a demonstration sport at the 1992 Winter Olympics. A men's individual and a women's individual event were held. On 22 February 1992, during a warm-up for the men's individual final, Swiss skier Nicolas Bochatay became airborne over a bump and was killed in a crash with a Snowcat ski grooming machine. Bochatay was not the only fatality as a course official was struck and killed by a skier during a training run. Speed skiing has never been a part of the Winter Olympics since.
