A note on the events:
Super-G
Speed event
A blend of speed and technique, the Super-G is lies between downhill and giant slalom. This discipline requires an excellent feeling for the snow at high speeds in order to negotiate the sharper turns with finesse.

Downhill
Speed event
The queen of Alpine Skiing events, this combines high speeds with mastery of turns on a medium-to- steep course which makes use of the natural contours of the terrain.
