Germany’s Willy Bogner was the first skier off in the first run and would lead that run by a full second with a time of 1:08.8. Bogner was the son of Wilhelm Bogner, who had competed in Nordic skiing at the 1936 Winter Olympics, and whose clothing line pioneered the use of stretch pants for skiing. But Willy Junior was disqualified on the second run and did not finish. The second run was led by Austrian Ernst Hinterseer, who had been only fifth after the first run, but his overall time was good enough for the gold medal. Hinterseer had also won a bronze medal in the giant slalom in 1960. His son, Hansi Hinterseer, would later compete on the Austrian ski team and at the 1976 Winter Olympics, but he eventually became much more popular as an Austrian actor and singer.
