Bankes and Nightingale win gold for GB in the mixed team snowboard cross
An Olympic gold medal on snow has long seemed like the impossible for Team GB's winter athletes. One hundred and two years, to be exact.
But for those in the know, it has been just a matter of time.
In winning the mixed team snowboard cross title in Livigno on Sunday, Charlotte Bankes and Huw Nightingale have written themselves into the history books, forever to be known as the first - yet it has been a very real prospect for a while.
In 2018, GB Snowsport set the lofty ambition of Great Britain becoming a top five snow sport nation by 2030.
