> helice - n. - A dynamic shotgun discipline designed to mimic the erratic
flight of live birds. Instead of traditional clay targets, this sport uses
small plastic propellers which spin unpredictably when launched, creating
challenging and realistic shooting scenarios.
2 points for whirly-skeet because I imagine the targets make an
entertaining whirring-whistling sound as they flutter around.
> helice - n. - In cross-country skiing, a ski pole tip that is attached at
an angle of greater than 60° (permitted in Olympic but not FIS competition).
1 point because they still allow combat in Olympic CCS but take steps like
this to make it slightly safer.
