Alpine Team Event - when the joint efforts count

The team event is given an extra dimension by being, well, a team competition, where it’s the joint performance that ultimately counts. In the team competition the teams race each other in heats, this tends to get the adrenaline flowing in many skiers and teams.The races will be close with loads of action, where the result isn’t decided until the last race has been run. As a spectator, you have an absolutely unique opportunity to experience the entire race from start to finish. You are really close to the riders, you can hear the edges of their skies grasp the snow, see the races lines and actually feel the races through your entire body.
