Para Alpine Skiing

Season
Winter
Athletes in alpine skiing events combine speed and agility while racing down the slopes at speeds up to 100 kilometres per hour.
Athletes with a physical or vision impairment may compete in Para alpine.
Para alpine ski events include slalom, giant slalom, and downhill. The rules of the International Ski Federation (FIS) are used with only a few modifications. Skiers with a vision impairment are guided through the course by sighted guides using voice signals to indicate the course to follow. Athletes with a physical impairment use equipment that is adapted to their needs, including single skis, sit-skis or orthopaedic aids.
