basically they hit the poles that the flags are attached to. this is because they want to get the best line possible to gain speed and achieve a better time. By hitting the gates it means they can get a tight line
Austria
Go downhill pretty quickly
Here's the 5 female downhill skiers having most world cup wins: Annemarie Moser-Pröll (AUT) 62 Vreni Schneider (SUI) 55 Renate Götschl (AUT) 46 Anja Pärson (SWE) 41 Katja Seizinger (GER) 36
Bode Miller is one of the best downhill skiers ever to ski the FIS World Cup. He won 2 silver medals in the 2005 Olympics. But she won't be returning this year. 2nd answer: Bodie is a "he". He is one of the few skiers to have wins in all of the alpine events-slalom, giant slalom, super gs, and downhill.
The downhill skiers' approximate average speed for the 35,000 m course can be calculated by converting the time to seconds (130 seconds) and dividing distance by time. Average speed ≈ 35,000 m / 130 s ≈ 269.23 m/s.
It is approx 1615.4 ms^-1.
Old lawyers never die, they just LOSE THEIR APPEAL. Old skiers never die, they just GO DOWNHILL.
26.9 m/s
Downhill skiers can reach speeds of up to 80-90 miles per hour (130-145 km/h) during competitions. Speeds vary based on factors such as the slope angle, weather conditions, and technique used by the skier.
Super G and downhill skiing are both fast-paced alpine skiing disciplines, but they differ in course difficulty and length. Super G courses have fewer turns and are shorter than downhill courses, making them faster and more technical. Downhill skiing involves longer courses with more turns, requiring skiers to maintain high speeds while navigating challenging terrain.
In spanish skiers are called esquiadores.
Yes six flags got torn up a little by a tornado on April ? 2012
