Betting on Alpine skiing

Every year, the International Ski Federation hosts the Alpine Ski World Cup. The special thing about this competition is that it includes several variants of the sport, with participants' performance evaluated in each discipline. This means that every athlete needs to achieve multiple Alpine Ski World Cup victories across the individual disciplines if they want to be successful. The Alpine Ski World Cup is divided into five disciplines:
• Downhill
• Super-G
• Giant slalom
• Slalom
• Combined
Besides this, the world of Alpine skiing sports betting has a handful of other competitions for you to check out, including parallel competitions, team competitions and knock-out competitions.

Alongside the Alpine Ski World Cup, the Alpine skiing events at the Olympics are also much loved by athletes and fans. The Winter Olympics have included Alpine skiing since as far back as 1936 and the Olympic title even carried as much weight as the Alpine Ski World Cup crown for a time. It remains one of the most important and popular sports at the Winter Olympics, with a distinction again made here between the five disciplines: Alpine skiing downhill, slalom, giant slalom, super-G and combined. It is clear that there is a veritable array of betting options open to you here.

Sports bets on Alpine skiing aren't just sought-after in skiing-mad Austria, they're popular in other countries across Europe, too. And that's no surprise, given that every single race offers nail-biting tension and jaw-dropping levels of excitement. You can bet on an array of markets during a ski season, such as on the winner or on top-placed skiers in every single race. This option is known as a pre-match bet. Of course, you can also place long-term bets on, say, the overall winner of a season. The decision is yours!
