Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen. Welcome to the information session about men’s skiing. Today, the title of my speech will be the differences between alpine and cross-country skiing. Alpine skiing and cross-country skiing are two very different sports. First, I want to talk about alpine skiing. Alpine skiing is much faster than cross-country skiing. You have probably seen alpine skiing before. It is when the skiers go down the ski slopes really fast. It includes events like downhill, slalom, and giant slalom. Next, I will talk about cross-country skiing. Cross-country skiing is slower than alpine skiing. You have probably seen cross-country skiing too. They are the longer skiing events. Cross-country skiing includes events like men’s sprint, the 30 kilometer, and the 4-person relay race. While they are very different, both alpine skiing and cross-country skiing are very important Winter Olympic sports.
