The Men's slalom competition of the Squaw Valley 1960 Olympics was held on February 24 at Squaw Valley.[1][2]

The defending world champion was Josl Rieder of Austria.[3]

During the event, race officials asked CBS if they could review videotape of the race because of a controversy about one skier who was alleged to have missed a gate. This gave CBS producers the idea to invent instant replay.[4]
