Giant Slalom (GS) emphasizes high speed with long, arcing turns, demanding sustained, high quasi-static forces and large knee angles on the outside leg.

In giant slalom, @marcoodermatt has the edge in overall season success and is a four-time consecutive giant slalom crystal globe winner, though @loicmeillard has recently delivered more head-to-head wins against him in specific races.
