Billeter and Felder are the new ski commentators
Jann Billeter and Marco Felder will commentate on the women's alpine ski races from next season. They will take over from Stefan Hofmänner, who has been Swiss Ski's new Head of Communications since July 1.
The commentary team for the alpine ski races is complete again: Jann Billeter and Marco Felder will commentate on the women's races in future. They will continue to be supported by SRF ski expert Michel Bont. Among other things, 42-year-old Jann Billeter is the presenter of "Sportpanorama" and an ice hockey commentator; he was also a tennis commentator from 1998 to 2005. The 34-year-old Marco Felder completed a trainee course at SRF Sport and has been working as a sports editor ever since. Since the current season, he has also been commentating on the motorcycle world championship races.
Jann Billeter: "I've been fascinated by skiing since I was a child. I've been a presenter at World Cup races and World Championships since 2003. Now I'm delighted to be able to accompany the women's team in a new role as a commentator during the World Cup season." Marco Felder on his new role: "I've been following alpine ski races with interest since I was a child. In recent years, I've been able to be at the races for SRF as a reporter, which has increased my interest even more. Now I'm really looking forward to this new challenge."
Matthias Hüppi and Dani Kern will continue to commentate on the men's ski races together with SRF ski expert Bernhard Russi. The 2014/15 ski season begins on Saturday, October 25, 2014, with the women's giant slalom in Sölden.
