I found a really great site at NBC where you can watch videos on the science behind the athletic events in the Olympics. I just watched one on how skis are made and reinforced and what polymers are and how the ski manufacturers use different compounds on the skis to reduce surface tension. Sounds like science to me! Each video is just a few minutes long. **Click on the box in the bottom right hand corner when you get to the site.

Hope you enjoy!
