Gangwon Winter Youth Olympics: International Bobsleigh and Skeleton Federation (IBSF) president Ivo Ferriani praised the Gangwon Winter Youth Olympics for utilising the legacy of the PyeongChang 2018.

This legacy is not just about venues but also people, he told Xinhua on Monday.

Gangwon 2024, which took place from January 19 to February 1, has inherited all existing venues from the PyeongChang Winter Olympics. Ferriani said that although long-term analysis will take five to six years, everything is working well for now.
