GS
CAN Lake Louise DH, SG
„Ski Racing 2005“ features 4 alpine disciplines; Downhill (DH), Super-G USA Beaver Creek DH, SG, GS, SL
(SG), Giant Slalom (GS) and Slalom (SL). Each discipline requires a different
approach. To help you master a discipline, there are 4 skills at your disposal. FRA Val d‘Isere DH, GS
These are (ordered from speed relevance to technical relevance): ITA Sestriere SL
ITA Val Gardena DH, SG
Speed

Stamina and Carving

restricted by your carving skill. The carving skill defines how quickly you can SUI Wengen DH, SL
turn with full stamina. AUT Kitzbühel DH, SG, SL
AUT Schladming SL
Edging
When failing to carve quickly enough, you can use edging to save the situation. GER Garmisch DH, SG
This makes the skier glide and greatly reduces the turning radius. However, SLO Kranskja Gora GS, SL
it will also decrease your speed. Good edging skills help maintain speed, but

there is always some penalty.
SUI Lenzerheide DH, SG, GS, SL
Jump Suppress
Although not a skill, Jump Suppress will help you in the speed events. Before World Cup calendar
going into a jump, you have the possibility to suppress the jump. If timed well,
this will force the skier to moderate the jump, thus reducing air time. In return,
this will help maintain both speed and control. TIPS
Don’t lean forward before you’ve learned the basics of carving and edging.

As a beginner it is wise to use Edging frequently – especially in Slalom events.

Learn to time the start well - it will influence your run times.

Keep an eye on gate markers and the blue track lines – especially before going
into a jump.
