"Alpine skiing is the sport of sliding down snow-covered hills on skis with fixed-heel bindings. It is also commonly known as downhill skiing, although that also incorporates different styles. Alpine skiing can be contrasted with skiing using free-heel bindings; ski mountaineering and nordic skiing – such as cross-country; ski jumping; and Telemark. Alpine skiing is popular wherever the combination of snow, mountain slopes, and a sufficient tourist infrastructure can be built up, including parts of Europe, North America, Australia and New Zealand, the South American Andes, and East Asia.
Alpine skiing began as a club sport 1861 at Kiandra in Australia and a number of similar clubs in North America and the Austrian and Swiss Alps. Today, most alpine skiing occurs at a ski resort with ski lifts that transport skiers up the mountain. The snow is groomed, avalanches are controlled and trees are cut to create trails. Many resorts also include snow making equipment to provide skiing when the weather would otherwise not allow it. Alternatively, alpine skiers may pursue the sport in less controlled environments; this practice is variously referred to as ski touring, backcountry skiing, or extreme skiing.
In competitive alpine skiing races four disciplines exist: slalom, giant slalom, super giant slalom, and downhill. Slalom ski races have courses that require short tight turns, whereas giant-slalom races have courses which are set with more widely spaced turns. Super-giant slalom and downhill have few turns, the courses have gates spaced widely apart and skiers often reach 100 km/ h." [Alpine skiing. Wikipedia]

Risk Diagram (Process Decision Program Chart)
The risk is a probable event in result of which may occur the negative events and adverse consequences. The risk management is a very important process in any field, it is a process of making the management decisions aimed on the reducing the likelihood of appearing the unfavorable results and on the minimizing potential losses, as well as the implementation of these solutions. The main purpose of applying the risk management is increasing of enterprise's competitiveness with help of protection against the risks. ConceptDraw MINDMAP software is perfect for identifying the risks, analyzing and managing risks, for designing Risk Diagrams, for developing effective actions in response to circumstances and potential obstacles that were identified as risks. It is also the best for designing Process Decision Program Charts and representing the PDPC method, which is effective way of detailed planning and depiction the whole sequence of actions on the path from the formulation a problem to its solution. The PDPC lets determine the risks when corrective actions are not performed correctly and helps develop descriptions for preventive actions.- Winter Olympics - Cross-country skiing | Winter Olympics - Vector ...
