How to unlock the Giant Slalom Guru achievement in Vancouver 2010 - Definitive Guide
Choose the event Ladies' Giant Slalom. This event requires you to navigate a course bound by flag checkpoints. Holding down the RT at almost ALL times will help here. Stay as close as you can to gates on turns, and be sure not to miss any gates, as the speed penalty is costly. Like the Ladies' slalom, this event is the cumulative time of TWO runs on the course.

You will need about 3:12 after two runs to win this event. The times reported in the corner of the screen vary greatly. Don't put too much trust on them.
Get a good start. Hold down RT the whole descent. Try carving (LT) the less you can. Don't miss any gate. This should bring you near the required time. The rest is practice and optimization.
