Career edit

The victory in the general classification of the European Cup 2021 had made him acquire the right to be included in the Wunderteam for the world cup competitions, but a serious injury to his left cruciate ligament in training in Val Senales, caused him to lose the inaugural race in Soelden, for which he was selected, and the entire 2021-22 season.[3]

However, in October 2022 he was again called up with the Austria national alpine ski team, once again for the inaugural race of the 2022-23 season in Soelden.[4]
