Classification

- SB-LL1
- Athletes competing in the class SB-LL1 have significant impairment to one leg, such as amputation above the knee, or "a significant combined impairment in two legs", affecting their balance, their board-control and their ability to navigate uneven terrain.[3] Athletes with annotations will use prostheses during racing.[3] Female athletes in the category SB-LL1 at the 2026 Winter Paralympics will compete in the SB-LL2 category.
- SB-LL2
- Athletes competing in the class SB-LL2 have impairment to one or both legs "with less activity limitation", such as below-knee amputation.[3]
- SB-UL
- Athletes competing in the class SB-UL have upper limb impairments, affecting balance.[3]
Medal summary
[edit]Medal table
[edit]The ranking in the table is based on information provided by the International Paralympic Committee (IPC) and will be consistent with IPC convention in its published medal tables. By default, the table will be ordered by the number of gold medals the athletes from a nation have won (in this context, a "nation" is an entity represented by a National Paralympic Committee). The number of silver medals is taken into consideration next and then the number of bronze medals. If nations are still tied, equal ranking is given and they are listed alphabetically by IPC country code.
