Europe Cup / 16 January 2026
Winterberg
The European season continues.
Nigeria’s Yinka Oyebanjo-Odofin finished 33rd in the men’s skeleton Europe Cup race at Winterberg on 16 January 2026.
What the result sheet records
The IBSF lists a 5.41-second start and a 59.55-second heat, with a final placement of 33rd. The official result is linked below so the performance can be read in the context of the full field.
A different track, a separate result
Winterberg came after two Europe Cup starts in Innsbruck. Times from different tracks are not directly interchangeable: this is a record of the German race, not a comparison with the Austrian times.
One stop in a six-track debut
Winterberg was one of six venues on Yinka’s 2025/26 international race record. The next listed start was St. Moritz–Celerina on 21 January. For a self-funded Nigerian skeleton athlete, the season involved moving between race venues as well as competing on the ice.
