Feuz returns to Kitzbühel to receive gondola
The 34-year-old Swiss skier, Beat Feuz, returned to Kitzbühel on Aug. 17 to receive his “own” gondola. He might not officially own the gondola, but a gondola of the legendary Hahnenkamm has been dedicated to him. A gondola is rewarded to every Hahnenkam winner, whether they competed in downhill, super G or slalom.
In January 2021, Feuz won both downhill races, which took place on the Streif. Upon receiving his gondola, Feuz said, “being here today is much more relaxing than in winter.” The Swiss skier is no stranger to the Kitzbühel resort, as he has already placed in the top-three eight times during his career. Feuz placed 2nd in 2020, 2019, 2018, 2016 and 2012 and finished 3rd in 2017. Finally, his time came, finishing first in a spectacular style by winning both races back in January.
