Venue Squaw Valley Competitors 63 from 21 nations | Date February 24 Winning time 3:09.62 | |
The Men's slalom competition of the Squaw Valley 1960 Olympics was held at Squaw Valley.
The defending world champion was Josef Rieder of Austria.
During the event, race officials asked CBS if they could review videotape of the race because of a controversy about one skier who was alleged to have missed a gate. This gave CBS producers the idea to invent instant replay.
