Speed increases but the basic rules are the same as slalom. Super-G: Short for super giant slalom, focuses more on speed and less on maneuverability.

Speeds of more than 75mph (125kph) are reached on a course with very few gates and lined with safety fencing. After required practice, only one run down the mountain determines the winner.
