Alpine Skiing is one of the most incredible sporting competitions in the world. As the name suggests, it is a winter sport and has its own spot at the Winter Olympics. It consists of sliding down the snow slopes, on skies that have fixed-heel bindings. With chair lifts and other facilities, skiing is practiced in ski resorts, across the world. Different skiers practice their sport and it is one of the most anticipated events at the Olympics. Along with it, the FIS World Cup and the World Championships are major competitions of the Alpine skiing community. There are five disciplines in modern-day skiing competitions- slalom, giant slalom, super-G, downhill, and the combined.

<h3>History of Alpine Skiing</h3>
Skiing was first practiced <a href="https://www.britannica.com/sports/Alpine-skiing" target="_blank" rel="noopener">during</a> the 19th and 20th centuries. The International Ski federation recognized downhill racing back in the 1930s. Likewise, the first men's world championships were held in 1931; whereas, the women's events were added in 1950. The 1936 Winter Olympics in Germany, saw the first Alpine event make its debut. With all the history in place, the first slalom competition happened in Murren, Switzerland, back in 1922.
<h3>The five disciplines</h3>
In major competitions around the world, they use five disciplines in these competitions. The slalom and giant slalom competitions are technical events while the downhill and super-G events are speed events. The combined competitions have both technical and speed events to determine the winner. There are separate events for both men and women, along with mixed alpine competitions.

The slalom <a href="https://www.cbssports.com/olympics/news/mikaela-shiffrin-doesnt-have-anything-to-prove-to-anyone-at-the-beijing-olympics/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">competition</a> is the shortest discipline. It includes gates that skiers must go in between to finish the course. It is a fast and technical course that includes skiers maneuvering swift turns to finish fastest at the end. Giant slalom is bigger. It consists of different gates with two poles linked by flags. Finding the right path is a necessity that helps the skiers to post fast times. Downhill is one of the fastest competitions in skiing. As the name suggests, skiers just need to get down to the finishing line by posting the fastest times. They can attain an average speed of 80mph as massive jumps are a part of the course. Super-G is similar to downhill but the skiers make turns during the course. Patience is the key as they take tight turns at incredible speeds.

[caption id="attachment_2172249" align="alignnone" width="473"]<img class="size-medium wp-image-2172249" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/GettyImages-96799619-473x315.jpg" alt="" width="473" height="315" /> WHISTLER, BC - FEBRUARY 17: Lindsey Vonn of the United States celebrates winning the gold medal during the flower ceremony for the Alpine Skiing Ladies Downhill on day 6 of the Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympics at Whistler Creekside on February 17, 2010 in Whistler, Canada.

<h2><span style="font-weight: 400"><strong>Lindsey Vonn to earn this much in 2024: Know more</strong> </span></h2>
With all her medal victories and other successes, Lindsey Vonn has a net worth of $14 million. Her wealth is distributed among various ventures. Her book '<em>Strong is the New Beautiful' </em>fetched her income from its sales. Apart from that, she signed endorsement deals with Beats by Dre, Bounty, Hershey, Red Bull, Rolex, Oakley, and Under Armour.

Thus, all her endorsement deals came with her stunning performances throughout her career. She has also made money out of real estate. In May 2022, she paid $4.385 million for a home in Miami Beach, Florida, which she listed for sale after a year for $6 million.
<h2 class="jsx-cb26a7af5694ead9"><strong>Where does she hail from? Know about her parents, early life, and more</strong></h2>
Vonn was born in St Paul, Minnesota, on October 18th, 1984. She is the daughter of Linda Krohn and Alan Kildow. Growing up in the twin cities, her father is of Irish ancestry while her mother is of German and Norwegian ancestry. She started skiing at age two and the rest as they say is history.

Similarly, her father was a skier too, and won the junior national title. However, a serious injury when he was 18 forced him to end his career in skiing.

Her role model is Picabo Street, an Olympic medalist ski racer. From there, he was her mentor for skiing which led to unparalleled success. After moving to Vail, Colorado to train full-time, Vonn attended the University of Missouri High School online.
<h2 class="jsx-cb26a7af5694ead9"><strong>Lindsey Vonn Career so far: A Look into her Glorious Skiing Career</strong></h2>
In 1999, at the age of 14, Vonn's first victory came in a slalom race at Italy's Trofeo Topolino competition. Making her debut at the 2002 Winter Olympics in Salt Lake City, Utah, she took part in the combined and slalom but managed to finish only sixth in the combined. But soon, success followed as she won a silver medal for downhill at the 2003 Fédération Internationale de Ski (FIS) junior world ski championships.

Being the favorite for the 2006 Winter Olympics in Turin, she suffered a huge crash during the downhill training sessions and had to be airlifted from the site. After initial claims of a broken back, Vonn returned to the competition after two days. Although she did not win a medal, her courage was incredible as the U.S. Olympic Spirit Award. After her recovery from the crash, she won silver medals in the downhill and super-G competitions at the 2007 World Championships.

The aura of Vonn is that she always returned from injuries and provided a sense of spark in the competitions. Her determination is unmatched as she had her best season during 2007-08. Her first overall World Cup title came dominantly, scoring 1403 points. More success followed at World Championships but the penultimate race of her career came during the 2010 Vancouver Olympics.

<a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/us-sports-news-olympics-news-alpine-skiing-news-sports-world-hails-superwoman-lindsey-vonn-for-her-grand-comeback-despite-career-changing-injury/" target="_self" rel="noopener">With all her injuries</a>, she fetched her first Olympic gold medal in the downhill event followed by a bronze medal in the Super-G competition. More trophies and accolades followed as she won her fourth World Cup title at the end of the 2011-12 season. Yet another injury hampered her progress as she suffered serious knee injuries. With the injuries, she was forced to withdraw from the 2014 Winter Olympics. With victories here and there, the 2018 Pyeongchang Winter Olympics saw her win a bronze medal in the downhill event.

It was a memorable moment for Vonn who had an incredible career. After the 2019 World Championships where she won another bronze medal for downhill skiing, Vonn decided to retire. An incredible journey came to an end.
<h2 class="jsx-cb26a7af5694ead9"><strong>A starred run: Know about Vonn’s awards and achievements</strong></h2>
