Add an adrenaline rushing pace with shiny tights and bone crushing speeds
and you’re getting close to the „Ski Racing 2005“ gaming experience. A title
where it’s all about you, the skis on your feet, and the one man competition of
beating the dizzy drop in front of you. Only your finger technique and power of
reaction stands before you and the season’s World Cup victory.

Start into the worldcup season!
You’re a pro alpine skier now. Compete
against AI skiers and participate in
this season’s World Cup. Perform well
and you will be able to unlock new
features, locations, and receive skill
points, which will enhance your skiing
talent.

Progress
Saving
The Career is divided into 4 stages plus the finals. Within a section, you are
free to choose any of the available events at any time. When finishing a run, the
skier is rewarded World Cup points, depending on his position in that particular
run. In Slalom (SL) and Giant Slalom (GS), both runs must be completed before
receiving any World Cup points. You can always retry an event if you wish to
improve your previous results. To proceed to a new stage, a skier must acquire
a sufficient number of World Cup points. When a new stage is unlocked, this
stage will also be available in the Single Event mode.
The game will automatically save progress to the hard drive.

„Ski Racing 2005“ features 4 alpine disciplines; Downhill (DH), Super-G
(SG), Giant Slalom (GS) and Slalom (SL). Each discipline requires a different
approach. To help you master a discipline, there are 4 skills at your disposal.
These are (ordered from speed relevance to technical relevance):
Speed
By leaning forward/backward it is possible to increase/decrease your speed.
The speed skill determines the maximum speed.
Stamina and Carving
By turning left or right, you will automatically perform carving. Carving only
moderately affects the speed, but it reduces stamina. Low stamina in turns
will increase the turning radius, but will never cause a glide. Turning is also
restricted by your carving skill. The carving skill defines how quickly you can
turn with full stamina.
Edging
When failing to carve quickly enough, you can use edging to save the situation.
This makes the skier glide and greatly reduces the turning radius. However,
it will also decrease your speed. Good edging skills help maintain speed, but
there is always some penalty.
Jump Suppress
Although not a skill, Jump Suppress will help you in the speed events. Before
going into a jump, you have the possibility to suppress the jump. If timed well,
this will force the skier to moderate the jump, thus reducing air time. In return,
this will help maintain both speed and control.

TIPS
Don’t lean forward before you’ve learned the basics of carving and edging.
As a beginner it is wise to use Edging frequently – especially in Slalom events.
Learn to time the start well - it will influence your run times.
Keep an eye on gate markers and the blue track lines – especially before going
into a jump.

SPECTACULAR 3-S CONTINUOUS LOOP GONDOLA
END-USER LICENSE AGREEMENT (EULA)
Opening in December 2004
It has been a vision for decades to connect the two ski areas of Hahnenkamm/Pengelstein and
Jochberg/Resterhöhe by ski lifts. This unique project of a connecting lift will serve as the “aorta”
of the entire ski area and implement the long-term goal to combine the larger ski area and make
the “Ski Safari” skiable from both directions.
Developments in ropeway engineering in recent years have made it possible to directly span the
Valley (Saukasergraben) in its entire width. A combination of length, span, clearance from ground
and top-of-the-line ropeway engineering makes this project unique all over the world.
The 24 gondolas (with a maximum carrier capacity of up to 30 persons) are supported by two
track ropes – like on rails – and drawn by a haul rope.
