Timeline
Dave Irwin (born July 12, 1954) is a former alpine ski racer who represented Canada at two Winter Olympic Games and won a World Cup downhill.
He was one of the "Crazy Canucks", a group of Canadian downhill racers who rose to prominence on the World Cup circuit in the late 1970s.

Irwin's first World Cup race was the downhill at Schladming, Austria on December 22, 1973 where he placed 14th.
Two years later at Schladming, he won the downhill event in a time of 2:00.84 beating the second-place finisher, Klaus Eberhard by almost two seconds.
At the 1976 Winter Olympics in Innsbruck, Austria, Irwin finished eighth.

The first concussion was sustained on January 10, 1976 at the downhill race in Wengen, Switzerland - two weeks after his sole World Cup win at Schladming - and resulted in five days in hospital.
Less than two weeks later, Irwin was back training with the ski team.
