Romed Baumann (born 14 January 1986) is a retired German and former Austrian World Cup alpine ski racer from St. Johann in Tyrol.[1][2]
Career
Competing for Austria
Baumann debuted in the World Cup at the 2004 season finals, as a junior world champion in downhill. He has started skiing in all disciplines, however later found success in downhill and combined, winning two combined races and finishing in top 10 season standings in downhill on multiple occasions. He also competed in super-G, reaching the podium once.
Nationality change
He skied for Austria for many years, but he chose to compete under the German flag prior to the 2019/20 season due to not being included in the Austrian A-team.[3] Competing for Germany, he won a silver medal in the super-G in 2021 World Championships in Cortina, Italy, and reached a World Cup podium two years later, in downhill.
Retirement
He retired on 28 February 2026, after a downhill race in Garmisch, holding the record of 167 downhill starts in total. Initially, he planned to compete in a super-G race a day later, however it was canceled due to weather forecast.[4]
