competition skiing

Competition skiing is a sport where athletes race down snow-covered courses at high speeds, aiming for the fastest time. It includes various disciplines such as slalom, giant slalom, super-G, downhill, and combined events, each with different gate arrangements, speeds, and technical challenges. Skiers are judged by their precision, control, and speed, often navigating through gates that test their agility and technique. The sport requires a combination of strength, balance, and quick decision-making, with races held on prepared courses designed to challenge athletes’ skills and endurance.
