Parallel Giant Slalom

I watched the dual GS format yesterday and failed to be convinced that it was a “real” ski race.

It may flatter the eye and show some minute differences between two skiers jousting down a micro-hill, but I find it gimmicky and meaningless.

World Cup points shouldn't be awarded for this sort of half-baked contest. Sorry, FIS, but you need to work a lot more on that stilted event before it should become a keeper!
