A black course: the steepest hill and the biggest delays, with ice and jumps where they hurt.
Super-G is fast and sweeping, with big gaps between gates. Take a high line into the delayed gates so you’re not braking at the pole, then tuck through the glides.
How to ski Cornice
- Start to split 1 (gates 1–4)
- A jump between gates 3 and 4.
- Split 1 to split 2 (gates 5–9)
- A big turn at gate 5, ice between gates 6 and 7.
- Split 2 to split 3 (gates 10–13)
- A jump between gates 11 and 12, ice between gates 13 and 14.
- Split 3 to the finish (gates 14–17)
- Fast, sweeping turns.
- Big turns: set them up early and high, and stay off the brakes.
- Jumps: let go of the tuck before the lip, then tuck again just before it to stay low and land sooner.
- Ice: finish the turn before it and glide across flat.
