The men's skeleton event at the 2010 Winter Olympics in Vancouver, Canada, took place at the Whistler Sliding Centre on 18–19 February.[1] Canada's Duff Gibson was the defending Olympic champion.[2] Gibson retired after the 2006 Olympics. Switzerland's Gregor Stähli, the defending Olympic bronze medalist was the defending world champion,[3] but did not compete due to a thigh injury sustained during the World Cup event in Lake Placid, New York, on 20 November 2009.[4] The test event held at the venue was won by Jon Montgomery of Canada.[5] The last World Cup event prior to the 2010 Games took place in Igls, Austria (southeast of Innsbruck), on 23 January 2010 and was won by Latvia's Martins Dukurs[6] who also won the overall World Cup title.[7]

Canada's Jon Montgomery took the gold medal, 0.07 seconds ahead of Latvia's Martins Dukurs who had been leading heading into the final run. Bronze was won by Aleksandr Tretyakov of Russia.

While the IOC does not consider skeleton times eligible for Olympic records, the FIBT does maintain records for both the start and a complete run at each track it competes.

These records were set during the test event for the 2010 Games on 5 February 2009.
