Rope Climbing (1896, 1904, 1906, 1924 and 1932)
爬绳 (1894 1904 1924 1932)
In this event the competitors climbed a suspended vertical rope, using only their hands.
比赛中，选手要徒手攀爬一根垂直悬挂的绳索。
Dueling Pistols (1906 and 1912)
手枪对决
You know those cop shows where the cops try to shoot moving people-shaped targets to practice their criminal hunting skills? This game is just like that. Despite the Wild West connotations, the participants didn’t actually shoot each other; they fired on mannequins dressed in frock coats with bull’s-eyes on their chests.
你看过警匪片中警察为练习抓罪犯技巧而试图射击移动人形目标吗?这个项目就有点类似。虽然有西部的感觉，但是选手实际上没有互相射击。他们开火的对象其实是穿礼服大衣、胸口处带靶心的模型。
La Canne (1924)
击棍
This French martial art is similar to fencing, but uses a cane or canne (a kind of walking-stick) for fighting.
这种法国武术有点类似击剑，但是使用的是棍子(一种手杖)。
Roller Hockey (1992)
旱冰曲棍球
The same as ice hockey, only played on a dry surface with inline or traditional roller skates. As a demonstration sport at the Olympics, the quad-skate format was used. Argentina took the gold against Spain.
跟冰球一样，只不过是在干燥的表面穿着直排或传统溜冰鞋进行。作为奥运会上的一个表演项目，一般采用双排轮滑形式。阿根廷在和西班牙的对决中，获得了金牌。
Club Swinging (1932)
甩棒
Like rhythmic gymnastics with bowling pins, or juggling without letting go, club swinging featured competitors whirling clubs around their bodies in various patterns.
就像是拿保龄球瓶有节奏的跳操或是玩杂耍而不丢棒子，甩棒选手们将杆子绕身体旋绕，并不停变换花式。
Swimming Obstacle Race (1900)
游泳障碍赛
A combination of a swimming event and an obstacle course, the competitors had to climb over a pole, scramble over a row of boats, and then swim under another row of boats. All of this was done in the Seine River, so they also had to contend with the current. This event was only ever held in 1900, in Paris.
这项比赛结合了游泳以及障碍泳道，选手们需要爬杆，越过一排小船，然后再游过另一排小船。所有的这些都在塞纳河中完成。所以他们必须还要和水流作斗争。这项比赛仅在1900巴黎奥运上出现过一次。
