A night race is built twice: first on snow, then in the minds of everyone trying to follow it. SLALOM turns a course inspection into a fast, visual briefing, using the browser’s own scroll to carry readers through the terrain rather than asking them to study a static map.

For sports fans, that shift matters. Each bend and change of slope arrives in sequence, giving the course a sense of pace and making its technical shape easier to read. The design’s signature move—scroll-driven storytelling—connects the inspection to the race-day experience, where anticipating what comes next is part of the thrill.
The case study traces how the team balanced clarity, motion and atmosphere in a browser-based experience inspired by La Flèche. It also explores the choices behind turning a demanding course into a guided journey without losing the edge that makes the event compelling. See how the design handles one especially tricky transition—and why that moment changes the way the whole run feels.
