Born in Aix-les-Bains, France, Victor Muffat-Jeandet has had a passion for sports from a very young age. He tried his hand at many different ones before deciding to dedicate himself fully to alpine skiing. He made his World Cup debut in February 2009 in Kranjska Gora, Slovenia, and slowly made a name for himself in slalom, giant slalom, and the combined. He achieved his first podium in 2015 with a runner-up finish in the super combined in Wengen, the same place where he would claim his first-ever World Cup victory in the same discipline three years later. The 2017/18 season was a breakthrough one for him as after claiming his first World Cup victory in January, he went on to win an Olympic bronze medal at the Olympic Winter Games PyeongChang 2018 a month later. His hobbies are reading, computers, traveling, mountain biking, wakeboarding, and surfing. He describes himself as a rigorous perfectionist who likes work well done and who is very demanding with himself.

A skier since the age of two, Marta Bassino showcased her smashing talent on the snow from day one. After winning the Trofeo Topolino, the unofficial World Championships for young skiers, she went on to win a gold medal at the 2014 Junior World Championships. The same year she debuted in the World Cup and was instantly regarded as one of the most outstanding giant slalom skiers of her generation. She competes in all disciplines, but her strongest one is the giant slalom. She dominated the 2020/2021 season, winning four of the first five giant slalom races on the calendar, and finishing on the podium in the sixth one – a third place in the home event in Kronplatz, Italy. The outstanding series made her clinch the women’s World Cup crystal globe in the discipline and she took home a gold medal in the Parallel event at the FIS Alpine World Ski Championships in Cortina d’ Ampezzo, Italy.

After received his first pair of skis at the age of two, life was never the same for Italian giant slalom specialist Luca de Aliprandini. Within a year he considered himself already a proper skier and over time he earned a spot among the best giant slalom skiers in the world. After participating in the Olympic Winter Games in Sochi 2014, he suffered an injury to his left knee and was forced to miss the following season. In 2017 a head injury prevented him from participating in the World Championships in St. Moritz. Four years later, his patience and hard work finally paid off big time as he made a childhood dream come true by winning a silver medal in the giant slalom race at the FIS Alpine World Ski Championships in Cortina d’ Ampezzo in 2021. When he is not chasing perfect turns on snow, Luca is a passionate motocross rider and loves to spend his time in the mountains and surrounded by nature.

New Zealand skiing sensation Alice Robinson moved with her parents and two siblings from Australia to Queenstown, New Zealand, at the age of four. By the age of eight, she was already racing with the local Alpine Ski team at Coronet Peak. Despite being repeatedly told that she wouldn’t be able to make it in ski racing because she wasn’t from Europe or North America, in 2019 Alice Robinson became New Zealand’s first Junior World Champion, and just five days later, she scored a stunning second place and her first World Cup podium at the World Cup Finals. This was just the beginning for the young New Zealander as a mere six months later, at the season-opener in Soelden, she claimed the very top step of the podium, a feat she repeated once more in each of the following two seasons. It’s fair to say that at just 20 years old, Robinson has taken the World Cup Tour by storm and it will be exciting to see where her talent will take her in the years to come.
