Watch: RAF success at Alpine Giant Slalom

Meribel 2025 had a climactic finale to the competition as the RAF were winners across both the men's and women's Alpine Giant Slalom events.

For Air Specialist (Class 1) Georgina Davis, it was a win that she'll feel has been coming after finishing in second place in the Super Combined and Ski Slalom events earlier in the week.

The team awards saw the Royal Navy take the women's triumph while the British Army won the men's team competition.
