	History of Skiing
		The Alpine skiing disciplines of downhill and slalom came about with this new equipment, and the 1936 Winter Games in Innsbruck, Austria, saw the first introduction of an alpine ski event: the combined, which added a skier's results in both events.

		Contrary to the Olympics and World Championships (BWCH), the World Cup (BWC) is an entire winter season of (mostly) weekly races, where the medalists are those with the highest sums of World Cup points at the end of the season.
		Called military patrol, the combination of skiing and shooting was demonstrated at the Olympic Winter Games in 1924, 1928, 1936 and 1948, but did not gain Olympic recognition then, as the small number of competing countries disagreed on the rules (see also Governing body, below).
		The first World Championship in the sport was held in 1958 in Austria, and in 1960 the sport was finally included in the Olympic Games.

	Alpine skiing blends art with speed - 2002 Winter Olympics coverage
		Over the years, there have been many great names in Olympic alpine competition but none more important than the two who swept the Games' famed "Triple Crown." In 1956, Anton "Toni" Sailer of Austria won the slalom, giant slalom and downhill, while France's Jean-Claude Killy repeated the feat in 1968.
		Alpine's inclusion in the 1936 Winter Olympics was not without controversy.
		The secret to a good downhill run is to keep the skis as flat as possible on the snow, to stay in contact with the snow as much as possible and to keep the body as aerodynamically true as possible.
