downhill course
Mountain racing path
A downhill course is a ski slope designed for high-speed racing, featuring steep gradients, gates to navigate, and minimal turns compared to slalom courses.
The term extends to any path or trajectory that descends: The trail follows a downhill course to the valley floor.
Figuratively, a downhill course suggests decline or deterioration: The company's been on a downhill course since the merger.
