Valid finish

The finish may be crossed on both skis or on one ski. After a fall between the final gate and finish, both feet must cross.

Official time

Electronic net times are truncated to 0.01 seconds, not rounded upward. Unofficial times remain subject to classification and protests; equal official times produce a shared placing.

It covers alpine racing, not cross-country skiing, freestyle or recreational slope etiquette.
