In this new series of posts, we will highlight the best moments of alpine skiing since its incorporation into the Olympic Winter Games program  in Garmisch-Partenkirchen 1936
The 2006 Olympic Games were particularly satisfactory for the Austrian skiers winning a total of 14 medals. Two skiers from Austria won two gold medals in Turin: Michaela Dorfmeister and Benjamin Raich. Dorfmeister won the gold medal in the Downhill and the Super-G. Raich won gold medals in Slalom and Giant Slalom.
