Default what is more important in downhill, leg strength or aerobic capacity?

I say aerobic capacity.

Why?

Well, you need leg strength to make turns, but you need aerobic
capacity to breathe, right?


If you don't have leg strength, then you can't turn at high speeds,
but if you can't breathe, then you'd be dead.


Dead people are definitely slower than people who lack leg strength.
Therefore, I submit that aerobic capacity is more important in the
downhill.

ps. I used to hang out with some skiers once, therefore I know what
I'm talking about
