The best speed skiers in the world are descending on Aspen, Colo. from March 3-5 for the second men’s World Cup speed circuit stop in the U.S. this season. Aspen hasn’t held a men’s World Cup event since 2017, when it hosted all tech and speed races for the World Cup finals.
During this weekend’s events, which will comprise two downhill races followed by a super-G, American speed skiers Ryan Cochran-Siegle, Travis Ganong, Jared Goldberg, Steven Nyman, and Bryce Bennett, among others, will get to race on Aspen’s iconic downhill track in front of American fans—a rarity for these racers who spend the majority of their season racing thousands of miles away from home in Europe.
While Ganong and Cochran-Siegle, currently ranked 11th and 14th in the World Cup downhill standings respectively, will headline the Aspen World Cup for Team USA, all eyes will be on U.S. Ski Team veteran Steven Nyman, who recently announced his retirement from racing following this weekend’s races.
Over his two-decade-long tenure on the U.S. Ski Team, the 41-year-old from Park City, Utah collected three World Cup wins and was named to four Olympic teams. This season, he’s struggled to come back from an injury sustained during the men’s World Cup in Beaver Creek in December, 2022, and subsequently decided that it’s time to give his body a break.

“My love for the sport of alpine ski racing burns strong but I have taken it to my limits physically and cannot compete on the highest stage anymore,” said Nyman in a U.S. Ski Team press release. “I am happy to say my last run will be this weekend in Aspen on home snow.”
Besides the American favorites, this weekend’s races will feature a showdown between Norway’s Aleksander Aamodt Kilde, Switzerland’s Marco Odermatt, and Austria’s Vincent Kriechmayr, currently the top three men in both the World Cup downhill and super-G standings. Will Aamodt Kilde be able to extend his downhill lead over Kriechmayer to secure his second consecutive downhill globe? Will Ganong manage a second podium this season in front of a home crowd? Tune in live on Outside Watch to find out.
