Para-alpine skiing
Standing alpine skiing was one of the first sports at the first Winter Paralympics in 1976. Slalom and Giant Slalom were the race types held.  At the 1984 Winter Paralympics, the downhill event was added to the para-alpine program.  Sit-skiing was an example sport in 1984. At the 1992 Winter Paralympics in Albertville, Canada, downhill, giant slalom and slalom events were on the Paralympic program. At the 1994 Winter Paralympics, Super Giant Slalom was raced. In 1998, sit-skiers and blind skiers could get medals.  Before 1998, only standing skiers could get medals at the Winter Paralympics.
