Alpine skiing at the 2010 Winter Olympics – Men's combined
Encyclopedia
The men's super combined
competition of the Vancouver 2010 Olympics
was held at Whistler Creekside in Whistler
, British Columbia
. The competition was scheduled for February 16, but was postponed due weather delays in preceding races; it was held five days later on February 21. American
athlete Bode Miller
won his only Olympic gold medal, Ivica Kostelić
of Croatia
won silver, and Silvan Zurbriggen
of Switzerland
took the bronze.
One major change in this event for the 2010 Olympics was the switch from a traditional dedicated "combined" (K), taking place over one or two days and involving a downhill run and two slalom runs (as the combined had been since its reintroduction to the Olympics in 1988
), to a one-day "super combined" (SC), consisting of a downhill run in the morning and one slalom run in the afternoon. The super combined format lessens the advantage of the slalom specialists.
