EDIT: see fastandicy's post below with url for changed (very different) scedules. but still 7 1/4 hours of FIS ski racing - especially 4 hours on Sunday evening.
I have left my original post since otherwise the posts below it wouldn't make sense.

Eurosports scheduling is always very hit and miss anyway. I'll set Sky+ for large parts of the weekend making sure I get the programmes before and after the skiing. I've missed the final, leading, skier in a slalom before as it's finished recording as the schedule shows it changing to another programme.

Eurosport changed their sky EPG late on last time they showed skiing, so maybe it will be on.

I looked at it again and it was posted a month ago. More likely that one is out of date now. (But seems a big change )

Indeed
And you can't even get the main Eurosport channel streamed on the net without paying a subscription fee.

Yeah for some sports channels (basically Sky Sports X) you can rely on the Sky+ EPG. For others (basically anything else including Setanta and Eurosport) you can't - stick to the manual recording option (Services -> Option 6) and do it by time.
What happened to channel 4 skiing - I assume it's not on this year as the website is showing last year's schedule?

Yeah I always record the programme after aswell on eurosport after having missed the finish off a few races..
They said this weekend that next weekend winterpark starts on Eurosport, so should expect most of the day to be snow related...think though a lot of it will be on eurosport2 this weekend.

And love to help out and answer questions and of course, read each other's snow reports.
