Alpine Ski (アルパイン・スキ一) is an alpine skiing arcade video game released by Taito in 1981. The player controls a skier on a vertically scrolling course who can move left, right, or increase forward speed. The aim is to maneuver a skier through a downhill course, a slalom, and a ski jumping competition in the shortest time possible. Two players can compete against each other.
