Who is skiing, when and how to watch the Sunday, February 11th Women's Soldeu Andorra World Cup Slalom As anticipation builds for the Women’s World Cup Slalom in Soldeu, Andorra, on Sunday, February 10th, ski racing fans expect a riveting competition. With the absence of superstars Petra Vlhová and Mikaela Shiffrin, the race takes on a new dynamic, offering a unique opportunity for emerging talents and competitive veterans to shine.
e tech races of the 2024 FIS Alpine Junior World Ski Championships started, with the world's fastest under-20 ski racers going head-to-head.

Get ready for the thrill of the Tuesday, January 23rd Night Giant Slalom in Schladming, Austria – a historic event that rivals even the renowned Kitzbühel race. The Schladming night slalom attracted massive crowds in the past before the completion of the impressive finish stadium in 2013. With around 48,000 attendees annually, the village transforms into a giant party.
The women's last first run of 2023 was spectacular. The current World Cup discipline leader, Mikaela Shiffrin skied as she has for most of the year, which is inspirational. Although her lifelong rival, Slovakia's Petra Vlhová, skied brilliantly, she could not execute through the most challenging hairpin with the skill of the world's best. Stifel US Ski Team's Shiffrin will ski last again on the second run and poetically close out 2023. Although Shiffrin was only (-0.17) faster than Vlhová, the Slovakian finished the first run (-1.06) faster than third-place Austrian Katharina Liensberger.
