West German flatwater canoeist Wolfram Faust finished sixth in the C-2 500 at the 1984 Los Angeles Olympics partnering Ralf Wienand. Both also placed an unfortunate fourth in the C-2 1,000. Four years later Wolfram partnered his brother Hartmut at the 1988 Seoul Olympics where they placed fifth in the C-2 1,000, while at 500 metres they failed to reach the final. In the C-2 1,000 they won a bronze medal at the 1986 Flatwater World Championships.
