With a furious second run, monoskier Anna-Lena Forster won Germany's first gold at the Paralympics in Beijing.
Despite being six seconds behind after the Super-G, the 26-year-old from Radolfzell still won the Super-Combined in Pyeongchang in 2018 and after the final slalom was 0.77 seconds ahead of Momoka Muraoka.
Yanqing - The Japanese won the first two disciplines in China ahead of Forster.
Forster is also the favorite in the slalom on the final day on Sunday.
