For the U.S. Ski Team, the road to the 2006 Winter Olympics in Torino, Italy follows the worldwide schedule of FIS World Cup Racing. Before the start of the XX Olympics on February 10th, 2006, there were racing events scheduled for both men and women.

All of these events are at different venues in Europe and will give the U.S. Alpine Ski Team, as well as the teams from other nations, plenty of time to prepare for the conditions in Italy.
