Drills (Shorts, in the game) are 10–15 second courses built around one technique: quick to retry until it clicks.

Giant slalom has rounder, longer turns through two-pole gates with panels. The fast line is round and early: finish each turn above the gate, change edges just after it, and the skis kick you into the next one.
