Born in Buochs, Switzerland, Marco Odermatt received an overdose of talent from his parents – and he thanks them with every skiing victory he achieves.

After learning his trade at the Hergiswil Ski Club, he reached the final in his very first Migros GP and, by the age of 10, was selected to join the youth squad of the Nidwalden Ski Association (NSV) under the tutelage of NSV trainer Rumo Lussi.
