===Day 8===
On 17 February, [[Tanja Frieden]] of [[Switzerland at the 2006 Winter Olympics|Switzerland]] took the gold in women's snowboard cross after [[Lindsey Jacobellis]] of the United States fell on the second-to-last jump while performing an unnecessary method grab. Jacobellis settled for silver (she would have won gold if she had not performed the grab), while [[Canada at the 2006 Winter Olympics|Canada]]'s [[Dominique Maltais]] took bronze after recovering from a crash. [[Duff Gibson]] of [[Canada at the 2006 Winter Olympics|Canada]] took gold in the [[Skeleton at the 2006 Winter Olympics|skeleton]] just ahead of fellow Canadian [[Jeff Pain]], becoming the oldest individual gold medalist in Winter Olympics history.
