Event Details
Slalom
The Slalom is one of the most technical disciplines and emphasizes agility, precision, and quickness. The Slalom course is set with a dense series of gates that are closely spaced. These gates require the skier to make rapid, tight turns as they descend the course.
Giant Slalom (GS)
The Giant Slalom (GS) is a discipline where racers navigate through a series of gates set farther apart than in the Slalom, but closer than in the Super-G events.Giant Slalom demands a blend of speed, technical skill, and precision from the skier.
Super Giant Slalom (Super G)
The Super Giant Slalom (Super G) is a high-speed alpine skiing race. Racers navigate a course with gates, turning more than in downhill but maintaining faster speeds than in giant slalom.
