'''Super giant slalom''', or '''super-G''', is a racing discipline of [[alpine skiing]]. Along with the faster [[Downhill (ski competition)|downhill]], it is regarded as a "speed" event, in contrast to the technical events [[giant slalom]] and [[slalom skiing|slalom]]. It debuted as an official [[FIS Alpine Ski World Cup|World Cup]] event during the [[1983 Alpine Skiing World Cup|1983]] season and was added to the official schedule of the [[FIS Alpine World Ski Championships|World Championships]] in [[FIS Alpine World Ski Championships 1987|1987]] and the [[Alpine skiing at the Winter Olympics|Winter Olympics]] in [[Alpine skiing at the 1988 Winter Olympics|1988]].

===Top racers===
==Top racers==
[[Hermann Maier]] of Austria (nicknamed 'The Herminator') is widely regarded as the greatest male super-G racer, with 24 World Cup victories and five World Cup titles ([[1998 Alpine Skiing World Cup|1998]]&ndash;[[2001 Alpine Skiing World Cup|2001]], [[2004 Alpine Skiing World Cup|2004]]). He won the world championship in [[FIS Alpine World Ski Championships 1999|1999]] and an Olympic gold medal in [[Alpine skiing at the 1998 Winter Olympics|1998]], three days after a crash in the downhill. Maier's proficiency in super-G was attributed to his thorough course inspection and his aggressive course tactics; he opted for the most direct and dangerous line down the hill. A serious motorcycle accident in August 2001 nearly resulted in an amputation of his lower right leg and sidelined him for the [[2002 Alpine Skiing World Cup|2002]] season, including the [[Alpine skiing at the 2002 Winter Olympics|2002 Olympics]]. After his return to the World Cup circuit in January [[2003 Alpine Skiing World Cup|2003]], Maier won eight more World Cup super-G events and his fifth season title in 2004.

==Course==
The vertical drop for a Super-G course must be between {{convert|350|-|650|m|abbr=on}} for men, {{convert|350|-|600|m|abbr=on}} for women, and {{convert|250|-|450|m|abbr=on}} for children. In the Olympic Winter Games, FIS World Ski Championships, and FIS World Cups, minimums are raised to {{convert|400|m|abbr=on}} for both men and women. Courses are normally at least {{convert|30|m|abbr=on}} in width, but sections with lower widths are permissible if the line and terrain before and after allow it. Higher widths can also be required if deemed necessary. Gates must be between {{convert|6|m|abbr=on}} and {{convert|8|m|abbr=on}} in width for open gates, and between {{convert|8|m|abbr=on}} and {{convert|12|m|abbr=on}} in width for vertical gates. The distance between turning poles of successive gates must be at least {{convert|25|m|abbr=on}}. The number of direction changes must be at least 7% of the course drop in meters (6% for Olympic Winter Games, FIS World Ski Championships and FIS World Cups).<ref name="fis">{{cite web|url=http://www.fis-ski.com/mm/Document/documentlibrary/AlpineSkiing/09/72/66/2013icrkangwonlandupdate_Neutral.pdf|title=The International Ski Competition Rules, Book IV, Joint Regulations for Alpine Skiing|accessdate=2017-11-26|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20171215122001/http://www.fis-ski.com/mm/Document/documentlibrary/AlpineSkiing/09/72/66/2013icrkangwonlandupdate_Neutral.pdf|archive-date=2017-12-15|dead-url=yes|df=}}</ref>

In an attempt to increase safety, the [[2004 Alpine Skiing World Cup|2004]] season saw the [[International Ski Federation|FIS]] impose minimum ski lengths for the super-G for the first time: to {{convert|205|cm|in|1|abbr=on}} for men, {{convert|200|cm|in|1|abbr=on}} for women. The minimum turning radius was increased to {{convert|45|m|abbr=on}} for the [[2014 Alpine Skiing World Cup|2014]] season.

"Super G" redirects here. For other uses, see Super G (disambiguation).
Austrian alpine skier Christoph Kornberger competing in super-G

Super giant slalom, or super-G, is a racing discipline of alpine skiing. Along with the faster downhill, it is regarded as a "speed" event, in contrast to the technical events giant slalom and slalom. It debuted as an official World Cup event during the 1983 season and was added to the official schedule of the World Championships in 1987 and the Winter Olympics in 1988.

Much like downhill, a super-G course consists of widely set gates that racers must pass through. The course is set so that skiers must turn more than in downhill, though the speeds are still much higher than in giant slalom (hence the name). Each athlete only has one run to clock the best time. In the Olympics, super-G courses are usually set on the same slopes as the downhill, but with a lower starting point.

History

[edit]

Super-G was run as a World Cup test event during the 1982 season, with two men's races and a women's race that did not count in the season standings.[1]

Approved by the International Ski Federation (FIS) that summer, it was first officially run at the World Cup level in December 1982 at Val-d'Isère, France; the winner was Peter Müller of Switzerland. The first official women's super-G was run a month later in early January 1983, with consecutive events at Verbier, Switzerland. The first winner was Irene Epple of West Germany, and Cindy Nelson of the United States won the next day on a different course.[2]

These were the only two races for women in super-G during the 1983 season; the men had three. The event was not universally embraced during its early years,[3] which included a boycott by two-time defending overall champion Phil Mahre in December 1982.[4][5]

For the first three seasons, super-G results were added into the giant slalom discipline for the season standings; it gained separate status for a crystal globe for the 1986 season with five events for both men and women; the first champions were Markus Wasmeier and Marina Kiehl, both of West Germany.

It was added to the World Championships in 1987, held at Crans-Montana, Switzerland. Swiss skiers Pirmin Zurbriggen and Maria Walliser won gold medals to become the first world champions in the event. Super-G made its Olympic debut in 1988 in Calgary, where Franck Piccard of France and Sigrid Wolf of Austria took gold at Nakiska.

Top racers

[edit]

Men

[edit]

Hermann Maier of Austria (nicknamed 'The Herminator') is widely regarded as the greatest male super-G racer, with 24 World Cup victories and five World Cup titles (1998–2001, 2004). He won the world championship in 1999 and an Olympic gold medal in 1998, three days after a crash in the downhill.

Maier's proficiency in super-G was attributed to his thorough course inspection and his aggressive course tactics; he opted for the most direct and dangerous line down the hill. A serious motorcycle accident in August 2001 nearly resulted in an amputation of his lower right leg and sidelined him for the 2002 season, including the 2002 Olympics. After his return to the World Cup circuit in January 2003, Maier won eight more World Cup super-G events and his fifth season title in 2004.

Aksel Lund Svindal of Norway is second on the list with 17 wins in World Cup super-G races, Kjetil Jansrud third with his 13 wins. Svindal won Olympic gold in 2010 and his fifth season title in 2014

Pirmin Zurbriggen won four consecutive season titles (1987–90) and was the first world champion of this discipline in 1987.

Kjetil André Aamodt of Norway, a triple gold medalist in Olympic super-G races, winning in 1992, 2002 and 2006. Aamodt won five World Cup races and two world championship medals (silver and bronze) in the discipline.

Marc Girardelli of Luxembourg, a five-time overall World Cup champion, won nine World Cup super-G events. He won season titles in every discipline except super-G, where he was a runner-up three times. Girardelli was the silver medalist in the super-G at the 1987 World Championships and the 1992 Olympics.

Women

[edit]

Lindsey Vonn of the U.S. leads with 28 World Cup victories in super-G and has won five season titles (2009–2012, 2015).

Lara Gut-Behrami of Switzerland has won 22 World Cup races, five season titles (2014, 2016, 2021, 2023, 2024 ), and a Gold medal in the event at the 2022 Winter Olympics.

Katja Seizinger of Germany won five season titles in the 1990s, with 16 World Cup wins in the discipline.

Neither Vonn and Seizinger have won gold in the super-G at the Olympics (both won a bronze) while Gut-Behrami has. However all three of them have won a world title, Vonn in 2009, Gut-Behrami in 2021 and Seizinger in 1993.

Renate Götschl of Austria won 17 World Cup events in super-G, three season titles, and two medals (silver and bronze) in the world championships.

Course

[edit]

The vertical drop for a Super-G course must be between 350–650 m (1,150–2,130 ft) for men, 350–600 m (1,150–1,970 ft) for women, and 250–450 m (820–1,480 ft) for children.

In the Olympic Winter Games, FIS World Ski Championships, and FIS World Cups, minimums are raised to 400 m (1,300 ft) for both men and women. Courses are normally at least 30 m (98 ft) in width, but sections with lower widths are permissible if the line and terrain before and after allow it. Higher widths can also be required if deemed necessary. Gates must be between 6 m (20 ft) and 8 m (26 ft) in width for open gates, and between 8 m (26 ft) and 12 m (39 ft) in width for vertical gates. The distance between turning poles of successive gates must be at least 25 m (82 ft). The number of direction changes must be at least 7% of the course drop in meters (6% for Olympic Winter Games, FIS World Ski Championships and FIS World Cups).[6]

Equipment

[edit]

In an attempt to increase safety, the 2004 season saw the FIS impose minimum ski lengths for the super-G for the first time: to 205 cm (80.7 in) for men and 200 cm (78.7 in) for women. The minimum turning radius was increased to 45 m (148 ft) for the 2014 season.
