Lukas Feurstein
Lukas Feurstein (born 18 May 2001) is an Austrian alpine skier who competes mainly in the super-G and giant slalom. He grew up in Mellau, Vorarlberg, and made his World Cup debut on 20 March 2021 at age 19. He races for SV Mellau - Vorarlberg.
In junior and youth competitions, Feurstein won at the 2021 Junior World Championships in Bansko: gold in the giant slalom and silver in the super-G. At the 2019 European Youth Olympic Festival in Sarajevo, he earned silver in the mixed team event and bronze in the slalom.
He had a strong showing in the Europa Cup, finishing third in the Super-G standings for the 2021-22 season, which helped him move up to the World Cup. Feurstein earned his first World Cup top-10 on 28 January 2023, finishing sixth in the super-G at Cortina d’Ampezzo. A crash in the following race caused a medial ligament tear, and he missed the rest of that season.
Feurstein achieved his first World Cup podium on 7 December 2024 with a third place in the super-G at Beaver Creek, Colorado. He then won his first World Cup race a few months later in March 2025, also in the super-G at Sun Valley, Idaho.
He is 1.83 meters tall. His cousin Patrick Feurstein, born in 1996, is also a World Cup alpine skier who specializes in giant slalom.
