The LW6/8 event (LW stands for Locomotor Winter) is for competitors with a disability in one arm, which may be the result of an amputation, paralysis or dysmelia. Its competitors use just a single ski pole.
Winner of the event was Switzerland’s Paul Neukomm. He also medalled in the LW6/8 giant slalom at the Winter Paralympics, placing second behind Dietmar Schweninger, whom he had beaten in Sarajevo. Neukomm also earned two Paralympic medals in 1988, a silver and a bronze.
