slalom. He won competitions in Madonna di Campiglio and Kranjska Gora in December, and recorded three-second places, only one of them in giant slalom. Again he finished second in the Slalom Cup. At the 1991 World Championships, he won the bronze medal in slalom and placed fourth in both giant slalom and super-G. The 1991–92 season saw Furuseth compete more, but top-three achievements were somewhat more few and far between. He won a giant slalom race in Adelboden in January, finished second in a combined race in Garmisch-Partenkirchen the week before, and finished third in a slalom race in Sestriere in December. At the 1992 Winter Olympics, he finished fifth in the giant slalom, fourth in the super-G and seventh in the combined race. The 1992–93 season was a disappointment with mediocre results, although he did place twice among the top ten towards the end of the season. At the 1993 World Championships he finished fourteenth in slalom and tenth in giant slalom. In the 1993–94 World Cup circuit he placed mostly in the 20th–30th range, with results as bad as a 61st place in Val d'Isère in December. However, the misère in Val d'Isère was followed by a third place in Sestriere only two days later. He also recorded a second place in Kranjska Gora in January. Results improved again in the 1994–95 season. Although he opened with a 23rd place in giant slalom in Tignes in December, he achieved fourth place in slalom the next day. In slalom he recorded two third places; in Kitzbühel in January and Furano in February; he then won his last race for the season, in Bormio in March. In the 1995–96 World Cup he was disqualified in most of his races, failing to reach the podium. He participated in the 1996 World Championships, postponed from 1995, and finished seventh in the slalom race which was won by fellow countryman Tom Stiansen. He performed slightly better in 1996–97, with one third place in slalom in Shigakogen in March and a fourth place at the 1997 World Championships as highlights. From the 1997–98 season, Furuseth competed exclusively in slalom. He opened with a thirteenth place in Park City in November, but improved gradually until reaching third in Kitzbühel in January. Then, in February he won a silver medal at the 1998 Winter Olympics, only defeated by fellow countryman Hans Petter Buraas. A World Cup
