Marco Odermatt
From his first skis in Klewenalp to the Olympic peaks, Marco Odermatt embodies the meteoric rise of a Swiss ski prodigy, between sporting exploits and humanity. Dive into the fascinating story of the man who turned every challenge into victory and who, at 27, is already a living legend.
He is only 27 years old and yet Marco Odermatt is already a legend of Swiss sport. The Nidwalden skier has won almost everything in his discipline. From his childhood on the slopes of Klewenalp with his coaching father to his success in the Junior World Championships, “Odi” has completed all the stages with flying colors. Who has not been marked by his victories in Adelboden, Wengen, his first crystal globe or his Olympic gold?
Extraterrestrial on skis and human champion, the resident of the Hergiswil ski club knew how to convert his genius into success, making him popular in Switzerland and around the world. From the meadows of Buochs to the summit of Olympus, he avoided the pitfalls of life with a smile. This is perhaps his strength: he never trembled, and he always placed pleasure above everything. This book delves into his limitless journey, which has already crowned him king of his generation and which must push him to new heights, both sporting and human.
