Felix Neureuther (bottom left) was born in Munich on 26 March 1984. As the son of prominent parents: father Christian and mother Rosi Mittermaier were once successful ski alpine stars themselves.

For his son Felix, too, it's early days on the slopes: he skis for the first time at the age of two and a half. He became German Youth Champion seven times before Neureuther celebrated his debut in the FIS World Cup in 2003.

Schon früh ist klar: Seine größte Stärke hat Neureuther im Slalom. In der Disziplin gelingt ihm 2006/2007 auch die erste Platzierung auf dem Podest im Weltcup-Rennen in Beaver Creek.

More and more successes followed: in the end he eked out 13 individual World Cup victories. For a victory in Levi, Neureuther traditionally receives a reindeer, which he christens Matti.

The athlete from the Partenkirchen Ski Club also came up trumps at World Championships: In 2005 he won team gold in Bormio, and in 2013 he took individual silver in the slalom in Schladming. There he also wins team bronze. At the 2015 World Championships in Vail and Beaver Creek and 2017 in St. Moritz he won bronze in the slalom.

However, Neureuther, who is popular with the public because of his rascal charm, remains unfinished at the Olympic Games: In 2010 in Vancouver he was eliminated in the first round of the slalom, but still finished eighth in the giant slalom. In 2014 in Sochi, he was unable to compete due to whiplash and a rib injury after a car accident. In 2018, a torn cruciate ligament prevents him from taking part.

After the 2018/19 season, Neureuther will finally announce the end of his career on 17 March 2019 at the age of 34 after many injury breaks. His best final placings in the World Cup are 4th place in the overall World Cup twice (12/13, 14/15), 2nd place in the Slalom World Cup three times (12/13, 13/14, 14/15) and fourth place in the Giant Slalom World Cup once (16/17).

Felix Neureuther and his eternal sporting rival: Austrian Marcel Hirscher is always the one to prevent Neureuther from winning the really big title. For years, the two have been engaged in a tough but respectful competition.

Neureuther and former top biathlete Miriam Gössner have been a couple since summer 2013. On 27 December they married and in October 2017 a daughter was born.

Even before the end of his professional career, Neureuther also entered the sports business: in 2018 he became a partner in the avalanche backpack manufacturer ABS, whose CEO Stefan Mohr is the son of Neureuther's godfather.

Also in 2018, Neureuther will be a testimonial for Bosch and its e-bike division.

After the end of his career, in May 2019, JAck Wolfskin also announced that Felix Neureuther will become the new brand ambassador of the outdoor brand.
