Alpine skiing combined

Combined is an event in alpine ski racing. A traditional combined competition is a two-day event consisting of one run of downhill and two runs of slalom; each discipline takes place on a separate day. The winner is/are the skier(s) with the fastest aggregate time. Until the 1990s, a complicated point system was used to determine placings in the combined event.

Since then, a modified version, called either an "alpine combined" (with a downhill as the speed event) or a "super combined" (with a super-G as the speed event), has been run as an aggregate time event consisting of two runs: first, a one-run speed event and then only one run of slalom, with both portions held on the same day. Due to declining participation, the individual alpine combined was phased out of international competition in the 2020s and replaced by team combined, which is contested by pairs assigned to the downhill and slalom runs respectively.
