Rules:
Normal Sudoku rules apply: Fill the grid with digits 1 to 9 appearing once each in every row, column, and 3x3 box.
Skiing through the fog: Help the skier navigate through the fog. The skier starts at the arrow and needs to pass through all gates (by crossing all between lines). The path must run orthogonally between adjacent cells and cannot hit the poles (circles) of the gates. Furthermore, since we are on a steep hill, the path can only go left, right, or down, but never up, and it cannot visit any cell more than once. During his path, the skier performs turns, resulting in oscillating polarity of adjacent cells along the path, alternating between low (1234) and high (6789).
Slalom gates: The slalom gates act as between lines. Cells along a line connecting the poles (circles) of a gate must have values between those in the circles. Each gate is exactly 1 cell wide (the line contains only one cell). Additionally, each gate is numbered along the path of the skier, starting at 1. One of the two circles must contain that respective number. Along the path, the gates alternate between being red and blue.
Fog of War: The grid is partially covered by fog. When a correct digit is placed, the fog will be lifted from the surrounding cells.
Kropki dots: Cells connected by a white dot contain consecutive digits. Digits in cells connected by a black dot are in a 1:2 ratio.
X-clues: Adjacent cells connected with an X must sum to 10.
