As Austria Nordic combined athletes Last week, when they completed their jumping sessions on Bergisel, a man who is actually used to being in the spotlight was quietly working in the shadow of the ski jump.
Groomed with a bare torso Markus Eisenbichler there were the jump skis from Johannes Lamparter and Co. and was obviously absorbed in this strenuous activity.
Great expertise
The 35-year-old German is, if you will, ÖSV’s king transfer this summer. How often do you get one? six-time ski jumping world champion Join the team as a waxer and expert in all ski jumping issues? How many stars of his caliber do this work?
Markus Eisenbichler, the 2019 World Cup gold in the individual at Bergisel won, is in any case not above the backbreaking job. “My tasks in the service area will be broad,” says the Bavarian, who ended his active career in 2025.
“This goes from ski service to the further development of the material.” Not to mention his enormous wealth of experience as a specialist jumper.
“No one can fool him. He is a real asset to our team and will be able to give important input, especially on the hill,” says ÖSV combined head coach Christoph Bieler.
