A few days later than expected but still packed with plenty of star power, the 2020-21 World Para Alpine Skiing World Cup season kicks off in Veysonnaz, Switzerland on Wednesday, 20 January.
The competition will be held until Saturday (23) with two giant slalom and two slalom races on the agenda.
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, multiple safety measures are in place to protect the 81 athletes and staff from 21 nations.
For many skiers, the World Cup in Kranjska Gora, Slovenia, held exactly one year ago, was their last major competition in 2020. Now, with little over a year to go until the Beijing 2022 Paralympic Winter Games, they are aiming to make the most of this World Cup season.
