Downhill, slalom, giant slalom, super G, and combined (one downhill run followed by two slalom runs).
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.
Downhill skiing involves a single run down a steep course with tight turns and jumps, while super G skiing is a faster race with fewer turns and more open terrain.
Downhill skiing involves longer, more sweeping turns at higher speeds, while super G skiing involves shorter, more aggressive turns at slightly slower speeds. Downhill courses are typically steeper and longer, requiring more precise control and technique, while super G courses have fewer gates and more varied terrain. Overall, downhill skiing is more about maintaining speed and control, while super G skiing is about navigating obstacles and making quick, technical turns.
It is actually an alpine skiing event. It is combining downhill skiing with navigation with Slalom Courses. It is one of the most intense skiing contests.
