Biography

Markus Maier was an Austrian Nordic and alpine skier who participated in the 1936 Garmisch-Partenkirchen Winter Olympics. He competed in the Nordic combined event and placed 25th. At the 1933 Nordic World Championships, Maier finished ninth in the Nordic combined and participated in cross-country skiing and ski jumping. At the 1934 and 1935 Worlds he again participated but with less success.

In 1934, Maier placed third at the Austrian combined championships in cross-country, ski jumping, and downhill race. He repeated that performance in 1936, and the following year was second, which was his best result in the nationals.
