Swiss skier Marco Odermatt won the opening men’s super-G race of the 2025-26 FIS World Cup season at Copper Mountain, Colorado, claiming his 47th career victory and 16th in super-G. He edged Austria’s Vincent Kriechmayr by 0.08 seconds on a newly opened course, marking his third consecutive win at the venue. The race, held on Thanksgiving Day, was the first World Cup men’s speed event at Copper Mountain since 1976. Norway’s Aleksander Aamodt Kilde made a highly emotional return after nearly two years sidelined by injuries, finishing tied for 24th. American Ryan Cochran-Siegle placed 10th, while former Ski and Snowboard Club Vail athletes River Radamus and Kyle Negomir were top U.S. finishers. The event marked a rare double-header with women’s races, and the season continues with giant slalom and slalom events.
