Ariddia's presence at the First Winter Olympics was overseen by the Ariddian Olympic Committee (C.O.A). The delegation's official sports' code is ARI.

Ariddia sent thirteen athletes for individual events, two teams of two athletes for bobsleigh, and two ice hockey teams, which put the PDSRA's full delegation at 60 athletes. Jean-Michel Chang was the team's flag-bearer at the Opening Ceremony.

Delegation & results

Given Ariddia's climate (temperate to tropical) and geography (flat and forested), Ariddians have few facilities to train for outdoor winter events, and are thus all but absent from skiing events.

The nation relied heavily on its hopes in short track and speedskating, and all four Ariddian gold medals came in the latter, three of them setting Olympic records. Only one medal was won outside those two fields, with François Riverdale's unexpected bronze in biathlon.
