Camille Rast: Enduro in summer, first Ski World Cup victory in winter
It's no longer a secret that Camille Rast is not only fast on groomed slopes in the pole forest. The 25-year-old ski racer is passionate about mountain biking in the summer and really lets it rip. The Valais native has even taken part in races in the Enduro World Series, the precursor to the Enduro World Cup - albeit not always to the delight of her ski coaches. Her best result was a remarkable twelfth place and a stage win at the World Series race in Canazei.
Although she hasn't put a race number on her mountain bike since her last Enduro race in 2022, she seems to be enjoying the summer balance on two wheels. Rast has gradually improved over the past few years and is currently riding her best season. After finishing third in the slalom in Gurgl (AUT) - her first podium finish in the World Cup - she also made it onto the podium in the giant slalom for the first time in Killington. Rast then went one better in the slalom the following day: she produced two perfect runs, celebrated her first World Cup victory and also leads the overall World Cup.
Behind Rast, her Swiss team and brand colleague Wendy Holdener was delighted with second place. Holdener has steadily improved since her comeback from injury and is celebrating her first podium finish in the USA since the 2022/23 season. The 31-year-old is also known to occasionally add variety to her summer training on her mountain bike.
