Men’s World Cup Super-G Podiums — 2025–26 Season
| Venue | 1st | 2nd | 3rd |
|---|---|---|---|
| Copper Mountain (USA) | 🇨🇭 Marco Odermatt (SUI) | 🇦🇹 Vincent Kriechmayr (AUT) | 🇦🇹 Raphael Haaser (AUT) |
| Beaver Creek (USA) | 🇦🇹 Vincent Kriechmayr (AUT) | 🇳🇴 Fredrik Møller (NOR) | 🇦🇹 Raphael Haaser (AUT) |
| Val Gardena / Gröden (ITA) | 🇨🇿 Jan Zabystřan (CZE) | 🇨🇭 Marco Odermatt (SUI) | 🇮🇹 Giovanni Franzoni (ITA) |
| Livigno (ITA) | 🇦🇹 Marco Schwarz (AUT) | 🇨🇭 Alexis Monney (SUI) | 🇨🇭 Franjo von Allmen (SUI) |
| Wengen (SUI) | 🇮🇹 Giovanni Franzoni (ITA) | 🇦🇹 Stefan Babinsky (AUT) | 🇨🇭 Franjo von Allmen (SUI) |

Seven races have produced 21 podium spots. Four nations have won: Switzerland leads with three victories, Austria has two, and Italy and the Czech Republic have one each.
Six nations have reached the podium. Switzerland leads with nine total podiums, Austria has seven, Italy two, and the Czech Republic, Norway, and the United States one apiece. Switzerland accounts for nearly half of all podium finishes this season.
The numbers show both control and depth — one nation leading clearly, another consistently present, and several capable of breaking through when execution at the limit is right.
Top Five A — World Cup Super-G Standings
After Bormio (7 of 10 races)
- 1. 🇨🇭 Marco Odermatt (SUI, 1997, Stöckli) — 425 pts
- 2. 🇦🇹 Vincent Kriechmayr (AUT, 1991, Head) — −158
- 3. 🇦🇹 Stefan Babinsky (AUT, 1996, Head) — −182
- 4. 🇦🇹 Raphael Haaser (AUT, 1997, Atomic) — −184
- 5. 🇮🇹 Giovanni Franzoni (ITA, 2001) — −185
Odermatt remains the standard. Every time he puts on a bib, he is the favorite. The points gap behind him is substantial — large enough that a fourth consecutive Super-G globe is firmly in his control with only a few races remaining. It would take a dramatic shift to change the trajectory of this title race.

Ryan Cochran-Siegle enters as the Olympic silver medalist. His Bormio run proved he can deliver under maximum pressure. On a track like Kandahar, where strength and gliding speed matter, he remains one of the most dangerous racers in the field.
🇨🇦 Alpine Canada — Men’s Super-G Roster
- Bib 3 — 🇨🇦 James Crawford (CAN, 1997, Head)
- Bib 30 — 🇨🇦 Cameron Alexander (CAN, 1997)
- Bib 33 — 🇨🇦 Brodie Seger (CAN, 1995, Atomic)
- Bib 35 — 🇨🇦 Riley Seger (CAN, 1997)
- Bib 38 — 🇨🇦 Jeffrey Read (CAN, 1997, Atomic)
Crawford’s early start position gives Alpine Canada immediate opportunity. Canada has traditionally thrived on demanding Super-G tracks, and this group carries both experience and aggression.

Why Garmisch Matters
The Kandahar terrain demands skilled pressure control and clean exits onto gliding sections.
Odermatt is the favorite.
The Olympic champion carries momentum.
Cochran-Siegle has proven he can peak when it matters.
Austria has depth — and pressure.
Franzoni remains a wild card capable of explosive speed.
Every skier who has stood on a Super-G podium this season has shown they can push the limit. On this course, pushing the limit — without crossing it — will decide the race.
