Alpine skiing can be considered as a “closed sport” where each athlete is alone in the course without any external disturbing moments. However, each alpine race is unique therefore never identical. In addition, the condition of the course is constantly changing as each skier makes new tracks in the snow. Identifying key performance indicators (KPI) and other characteristics are therefore difficult. The most frequently used analysis method in alpine skiing is video footage. However, it is not always possible for coaches to cover a complete course as they can be several kilometers long as e.g. downhill skiing. The purpose of this study was thus to explore the possibility to use telecasting to analyze performance and skiing characteristics in world cup slalom races to identify possible KPI.
