Alpine skiing
Alpine skiing, or downhill skiing, is the pastime of sliding down snow-covered slopes on skis with fixed-heel bindings, unlike other types of skiing (cross-country, Telemark, or ski jumping), which use skis with free-heel bindings. Whether for recreation or for sport, it is typically practiced at ski resorts, which provide such services as ski lifts, artificial snow making, snow grooming, restaurants, and ski patrol.

"Off-piste" skiers—those skiing outside ski area boundaries—may employ snowmobiles, helicopters or snowcats to deliver them to the top of a slope. Back-country skiers may use specialized equipment with a free-heel mode, including 'sticky' skins on the bottoms of the skis to stop them sliding backwards during an ascent, then locking the heel and removing the skins for their descent.

Alpine ski racing has been held at the Winter Olympics since 1936. A competition corresponding to modern slalom was introduced in Norway at Oslo in 1886.

Alpine skiing at the 1952 Winter Olympics – Men's downhill

It was the second Olympic downhill race, which was first run as a separate event in 1948.

Defending world champion Zeno Colò of Italy won the gold, the only Olympic medal of his career; he was fourth in the other two events. More than a second behind was silver medalist Othmar Schneider, and Christian Pravda took the bronze.

The race's starting elevation was 940 m (3,084 ft) above sea level; the course length was 2.60 km (1.62 mi), with a vertical drop of 750 m (2,461 ft). Colò's winning time of 150.8 seconds yielded an average speed of 62.07 km/h (38.6 mph), with an average vertical descent rate of 4.97 m/s (16.3 ft/s).
