(1) Paralympic snowboarding: The competition is held on an artificial snow track with various obstacles for jumps and flips. Only one snowboard is used during the competition. Each athlete has three chances to compete, and the best two combined scores will be selected for admission. The athlete who takes the least time will be ranked higher. The competition venue is at Genting Snow Park Venue A.

(2) Paralympic cross-country skiing: athletes with physical disabilities and the blind/visually impaired. Depending on the functional impairment, athletes can ski in a standing position or in a sitting position, with a chair installed on a pair of skis, and the athlete skis while sitting on the chair. Visually impaired athletes compete with a sighted guide. Men and women compete in short, middle and long distances (2.5km to 20km) using traditional or freestyle techniques or in team relays. The competition venue is at the Biathlon Center.

(3) Paralympic Biathlon: The total competition distance is between 6 and 15 km, with each lap being 2.0 to 2.5 km, using freestyle skiing for 3 or 5 laps. During the race, athletes must hit a shooting target 10m away. Each miss will be penalized by increasing the total route time. The most important success factor is the ability to switch between physical endurance and shooting accuracy during competition. Visually impaired athletes are aided by sound signals, which depend on the strength of the signal, to indicate when the athlete should shoot. The competition venue is at the Biathlon Center.
