| Previous: 2025 | Next: 2027 |
The men's super-G in the 2026 FIS Alpine Skiing World Cup is scheduled to consist of nine events, including the final. The season is scheduled to begin with a super-G at Copper Mountain, Colorado (U.S.) on 27 November 2025 (the first World Cup visit to Copper Mountain for the men since 1976),[1] followed by a visit to nearby Beaver Creek on 6 December 2025 and then to proceed to Europe for the remainder of the races, according to the initial schedule released on 12 June 2025.[2] Among those races is a first: for the first time ever, an Alpine World Cup race is being held in Livigno, Italy, on the Tagliede – Li Zeta slope.[3]
The season will be interrupted for the quadrennial 2026 Winter Olympics in three regions in Italy – Milan, the Stelvio Pass, and Cortina d'Ampezzo – during 6–22 February 2026.[4] All of the Alpine skiing events for men are scheduled to take place on the classic Stelvio course at Bormio.[5] The championship in men's super-G is scheduled to be held on Wednesday, 11 February.
Season summary
The season-opening race at Copper Mountain came down to a two-man battle, but defending discipline champion Marco Odermatt of Switzerland edged Austria's Vincent Kriechmayr by .08 seconds for the victory, in a race that was also noted for the return after almost two years (from a life-threatening injury suffered in January 2024) of former overall champion Aleksander Aamodt Kilde of Norway, who is also the fiancé of American star Mikaela Shiffrin, and Shiffrin was present at the finish line to greet him.[6]. The super-G at Beaver Creek the next week battled high winds and fresh snow, and a crash by Switzerland's Franjo von Allmen, starting 14th, led to a delay, after which none of the later runners were able to crack the top ten, and the weather conditions led to the race being stopped after 31 racers had gone; the winner was Kriechmayr, who had started sixth and defeated the field (except for Fredrik Møller of Norway) by over a second, giving him the overall lead in the discipline.[7] After this race, the super-G season continued in Europe, but an unusual late weather shift at Val Gardena/Gröden (in the Italian Dolomites) allowed the later racers to have clear visibility, while the earlier racers had dealt with overcast skies, and led to the first victory ever on the World Cup circuit for a male Czech skier – Jan Zabystřan, who started 29th.[8] Odermatt, the only skier among the first ten starters to finish in the top ten, was second and regained the discipline lead over Kriechmayr, who started 13th and finished ninth.[8] In the last race in the 2025 calendar year, which (as noted above) was the first World Cup race ever at Livigno (Italy), a potential all-Swiss podium (Alexis Monney, von Allmen, and Odermatt) was broken up by the first super-G victory ever from Austria's Marco Schwarz, an all-event competitor who had missed most of the prior two years due to a serious injury and a number of mishaps during recovery, but had won a giant slalom just six days prior at Alta Badia for his first victory in any discipline since his return.[9]
The first super-G of 2026 was run at Wengen, Switzerland on 15 January, in bright sunshine, which led to melting snow, and the first racer down the course – Giovanni Franzoni of Italy – set the fastest time for his first World Cup win, with the other two podium finishers starting 4th (Stefan Babinsky of Austria, his first World Cup podium) and 8th (von Allmen) as the conditions continued to deteriorate.[10] The following weekend at Kitzbühel, Austria, Odermatt barely edged his teammate von Allmen by 0.03 seconds for his 53rd career World Cup win, in what turned out to be a close race all the way down to Franzoni in 12th, just 0.66 seconds behind Odermatt.[11] At the Milan Cortina Winter Olympics in Bormio (Italy), von Allman finally came out on top, winning the gold medal (his record-tying third), after three straight podiums in super-G without a victory, with discipline leader Odermatt picking up bronze and the 2022 silver medalist, Ryan Cochran-Siegle of the U.S., earning another silver.[12]
Finals
The World Cup finals in the discipline are scheduled to take place on Sunday, 22 March 2026 on the Olympiabakken course at Kvitfjell, near Lillehammer, Norway.[1] Only the top 25 skiers in the World Cup super-G discipline and the winner of the 2026 FIS Junior World Championships in the discipline, plus any skiers who have scored at least 500 points in the World Cup overall classification for the season, will be eligible to compete in the final, and only the top 15 will earn World Cup points.
