Now on bbc news, with a year until the Winter Olympics in south korea, nick hope and david mcdaid report on all the build up from team gbs leading medal prospects, to the key events to watch out for. Historically at the Winter Olympics british athletes have often found themselves left out in the cold. The dominating figure at these games. He is only 21. Podium glory was mostly the preserve of other nations. The United States have beaten the soviet union he crosses the line and a new Olympic Record holder. But over time, Great Britain has gradually warmed to winter sport. It is olympic gold for Great Britain. Robin cousins, a great round of applause. Surely it will be gold for Great Britain. And there was success last time in sochi as team gb equalled equalled their best ever games with four medals. He is an olympic champion. Jenny jones, Great Britain bronze medallist. Great britain are in the Olympic Final. The youngest ever to win a medal in olympic curling. Next year in south korea, the british are aiming for even more. Who will be winning the medals for team gb when the Olympic Games take place next year . We will tell you how some of the familiar faces have been faring as well as some new names to look our for as well. We will start with lizzie yarnold, who followed on from amy williams in 2010 with an olympic title. She has gone on to win world, european and world cup titles. She has also taken a year off. Lizzie yarnold is the olympic champion the mad thing about skeleton is youre legging it as fast as you can and jumping on the sled and hoping it goes right. Sometimes it is scary. Youre careering into corners at 90 mph, so it is almost gone before you can think about it. I remember in sochi just before the race was about to start. I was petrified because as soon as i started the run there was nothing more i can do. Ijust wanted to squeeze every hundredth of a second out of the run to secure a gold medal. I got to the finish line, looked at the clock and saw the number one and it was this tingling all over that i had done it. It was amazing. How soon afterwards did you think about another success . As soon as someone mentioned no one had defended their title, i thought it would be amazing to do. She is the olympic champion. She is pulling away. That is how to win your first World Championships. I said i wanted to be World Champion and im so pleased that i have done it. Olympic skeleton champion Lizzy Yarnold is to take a year break from the sport. When i came back i had achieved everything i wanted to. I realised i was exhausted. What have you done this year . I planned my wedding and moved house. I took some lampshade making courses. I needed a break to remember who i was as a person, not just an athlete. Getting back into training is more fun than i remember. I have come back stronger. Lizzy yarnold is picking up where she left off. She took silver at lake placid. I would never have known if it was a good idea to take a year off if i had not come back so strongly. Now i cannot wait for the olympic season and my dream is to defend my title. At the age of 16, Katie Ormerod narrowly missed out on selection for snowboarding. But four years on, could she have her coming of age inside career. She is one of the best medal hopes in slopestyle and big air. My name is katie and i am a freestyle snowboarder. I will take you through A Day In The Life of how i live and what i do as a professional snow boarder. We have down days so i will show you going to the gym and what i do, go exploring. I hope you enjoy it. Hello this is katie summerhayes, still in bed i got involved and freestyle snowboarding when i was five years old. I love it, the fact you can travel the world with your best friends. This is outside our apartment. The view is pretty here. Where are we going . To the gym. I had a heavy day yesterday doing legwork so angry to do legwork so just going to do a light session today. Uk sport are putting a lot of funding into us which makes it easier to go and train and get access to the facilities we need. Going to go and get changed and go on a little hiking adventure. There is a lovely view here in austria. Two and a half years ago i snapped my acl, so i still have to have physio to keep on top of it because if i ride hard it hurt a little bit. It hurts a little bit. Going up the mountain now. We are at 3000 metres. We are going to do some tricks. It is a bit windy. It has always been my dream to get the olympic gold. My training has been going well and i have good results this season so i am excited and i hope you enjoy the day. So i am excited and i hope you enjoyed my day in the life. She has excelled in both disciplines, becoming the first ever big Air World CupWinner Injanuary and bronze followed by silver at the prestigious air and style event in austria. She is not the only gbs freestyle medal prospect. Here are some of the others to watch. Looking forward To Pyeongchang in 2018, there is plenty to get excited about. Both in skiing and snowboarding. In snowboarding it is mostly about mens slopestyle. Billy morgan and Jimmy Nichols are two big names. There is no reason why we cannot get more medals this year. We are doing really well. There is a long way to go and im just trying to get my tricks back and solid. Behind then you have Matt Mccormack and roland colthurst, both very impressive young talents. In the freestyle skiing there is pipe and slopestyle to look forward to. In pipe, the Junior Olympic Gold medallist will almost certainly go To Pyeongchang. It is her first olympics but anything can, and probably will happen. There is no pressure because im the youngest to get the olympics. Just to get there would be an achievement. Not many people do it, so it would be nice to get there. If i do well that is even better. In slopestyle you have two sisters, katie and molly, and this athlete whos came so close in sochi, can he make it onto the podium . We know freestyle has the fun factor, but can curling be considered cool . Every four years interest sweeps the nation and at sochi 2014 Hashtag Love Curling became a social media head, as britain won silver and bronze medals. In pyeongchang, a brother and sister could be taking to the ice. Built on an old car park near londons olympic stadium, this curling rink is evidence of a sport on the rise. Its increased profile is mainly thanks to Great Britains men and women at sochi 2014 where they won half of team gbs medals. Great britain are in the Olympic Final and are guaranteed a medal. The brushes go in the air and britain have won the bronze medal. The chance to go for more Olympic Glory Cannot come quickly enough. It is never off your mind. Ever since i threw my last stone in sochi i have been thinking about the next one and how i can do better. This year is important for us to put down a good marker going to korea. Since 2014, muirhead and her team have shown great consistency and won european bronze. At the same event, eves older brother enjoyed a Rare International outing as part of scotlands mens team. She has represented the country much more than me, but i hope that will not be the case for too much longer. With mixed doubles making its debut, what is the chance of the siblings bring together . It sounds fantastic to me. Ive tried playing with my dad once in mixed doubles. If we could get our heads down and make sure we get there then hopefully we can make that storyline happen. While the muirheads fly high, gbs silver medallist has represented silver medallist hasnt represented the country since sochi. We have done a lot of things right and got into most of the finals, just not finished it off. That is something we are trying to change and we are doing very well on tour and top ten in the world, but we want to get back to the championships and be there. We have a passion for it, we want to be better and on the podium. Making a strong case to wear gbs colours, is his former team mate. That is what it is all about and what im fighting for. I still love the sport. That is why i get up and go to the gym at six in the morning and take time away from my family, which is hard. It would be the ultimate for me. I dont think any team has stood out and to be selected and have that plane ticket to korea. Whoever has a good year this year has the best chance of going. Bobsleigh is one of the most popular sports at the Winter Olympics, but you have to go back to 1998 for britains last medal. The four man team did come close in sochi, missing bronze by only a fraction of a second. Now with new recruits are good results, the squad is filling optimistic about their pyeongchang potential. The initialfeeling is terror. You are running faster than an olympic sprinter. The whole way down you regret pushing so hard. You think, what have you done . The g force puts stress on your body i was getting nosebleeds two or three times a day. I thought it would be like disneyland. You think it is like a roller coaster, but it is not. Roller coasters you know what is coming. In this your head is down and youre just being thrown. It is a rough experience but it is exciting. It is a challenge and i love the speed. It was certainly fast in sochi. What do you remember . At the time i was over the moon. I was there to be competitive and i had finished fifth. Once the dust settled, we were very close to a medal. It was slightly disappointing. Full extension here. To make up those crucial fractions of a second, they are using former sprinters. Joel fearon was at the top of his game. He was the joint third quickest british 100 metre runner ever. I did not think i could do that with my body. I started crying. How has this happened to me . They complemented each other well, but there are some big differences. Im not that big in comparison to other bobsleighers. Sprinting, there is more finesse involved. Do you want medals in both sports this year . I have thought about it. One at a time but it would be nice. My main focus is being at the olympics as the best in the world. That is something they proved they were not far away from when they finished fourth in the two man event. Everyone is of such a standard it is just a case of finding a combination that works well together. When we get To Pyeongchang, we will be ready to take on the world for a medal. 14 years on. I am showing my age. The Bobsleigh Team are my new family. I believe that we can achieve the same as i achieved in 2004. Whatever team you end up on, you are trying to win a medal. From a sport that receives millions of pounds in funding, to one that receives nothing from uk sport. Alpine skiing has been a poor relation in recent years, which we can trace back to alan baxters stripped medal in 2002. But gbs dave riding is trying to put that back. It is you against a mountain. The slalom, you are going flat out. Your legs are throbbing. You have to keep moving and going. It is not a nice feeling. But it is nice when you have done well. That is something dave riding has done this season. 12 months ago, a top 20 finish would have been considered a good result but he is now challenging for the medals. He got a silver medal last month, matching the best ever result from a british alpine skier. He proves much of his improvement down to an intense Training Regime on and off the slopes. Ifeel the gym side makes a big difference. If im not strong then i can feel but i am slower and im not getting the same rebound from the skis. It is a big part of being an alpine skier. But his path has been challenging, with the Gb Alpine Programme receiving no uk sport funding. That is something he believes would have been different if alan baxter had not been stripped of his bronze medalfor accidentally taking a banned substance. I watched it and i thought it was surreal. It was taken away from him in the way it was. It was a vics inhaler, it was so unlucky. Sponsors would have been lined up and uk sport would have still been with him. It is a travesty. Has it has been tough for your sport . Are things turning a corner now . Things are turning a corner now. We have some young people skiing now and hopefully we can bring more people into the sport and secure some National Lottery funding. How much of a difference will that make . It would benefit the programme massively and it would support the young guys coming through but the pathway is well and the sport will go from strength to strength in the future. What is the target for pyeongchang . I think if i keep going and working hard i can do something special. Britain doesnt have a history of winter olympic medal success, anything like in the summer. But Figure Skating has been the most profitable sport for team gb. Figure skating is always a hit at the Winter Olympics, it is a show of strength, grace and artistry. For britain no one has come close to Torvill And Dean and Robin Cousins in the 19805. You know you have seen the best in the world. Robin cousins of Great Britain. British skaters winning gold In Pyeongchang would be a difficult task. The mens event will likely be fought out between the japanese superstar and the 2016 World Champion from spain, javier hernandez. Philip harris is hoping to be in the mix for Great Britain, although he has to come in the top 20 at the World Championships in march and last time he came 22nd. He needs a really good performance this time around. Britains best prospects are in ice dance. Penny coombes and Nick Buckland came seventh in the World Championships, but they are very unlucky. Nick underwent life saving Heart Surgery and they missed most of 2015 because they were both seriously ill. Last summer, penny shattered her kneecap and she is had to go through months of rehabilitation. She stepped back onto the ice in november but now it is a race against time for them to win the place at the Winter Olympics. While success was the theme for many british athletes in sochi, that was not case for Elise Christie who was disqualified from all three events are left against devastated. From all three events and left the games devastated. Since then, medals rather than tears have flowed. She has been set out as a Genuine Pyeongchang gold medal prospect. They have all gone down. I cant believe it, christie has been penalised again and she is not going to advance into the medal contest. It was a horrible time in my life, but it has now passed. Im a different person now. It has been an Amazing Development and everyone has helped me get there and i feel more ready than i ever have for an Olympic Games. I have achieved more than what i thought i was going to, for sure. It hasnt even sunk in, i think it will take until i finished the season. Is it your best season . I was totally different last year. Im much better and much calmer now. Im in the best place just now. Why do you think that is . Physically i have always been up there. I have worked on that for years but mentally maybe not as strong. I believe in myself now and i believe im capable of winning an olympic gold. Whether that is going to happen is not my control, it is down to the gods, but im doing everything i can. What does pyeongchang mean to you . That is the focus and it has been my head nonstop. I am so excited for it. I cannot wait to get out there. A year feels like so long now. In one year we will find out which of those athletes have what it takes to reach the podium. Hopefully this will be team gbs best Winter Olympics. Keep checking our website for the latest on the british athletes. There will be some fantastic stories as they continue on the path To Pyeongchang. Good afternoon.
