I just want to rush down a steep ramp, jump, hear whooshing sounds and land (with skis on my feet and in first person) for points.

Is Winter Games 2023 still the most recent/best game I can do that with? It seems like such an under developed genre considering everything else in the entire world has a simulator game now.

Steep has an Olympics dlc but I've not played it so can't say for sure if it's what you're after. The main game is amazing though.

I've played it! It's more arcade-y than the base game. The maps are small and focused, with more of a focus on the events and curated slopes than exploration. It's a little clunky IMO, but still very fun.

I have enjoyed the hell out of Riders Republic. One big issue is that it is cram packed with cosmetics, DLC and "live-service" features. If you're able to ignore that noise there is a lot of game to love underneath. Of course you can't really own it, since it's live-service, but I still feel I got well more than $40 of fun out of it

I've been getting back into baseball lately, and I think some sort of VR baseball game would be awesome.

I feel like baseball could translate decently well into VR, with pitching and hitting.
