Clement Noel

Clement Noel is an Olympic gold medalist and a leading alpine ski racer specializing in slalom, known for his consistent podium finishes and technical proficiency. After becoming the National Champion in Slalom at Lélex in March 2017, Clement Noel went on to establish himself as an Olympic gold medalist and a leading alpine ski racer specializing in slalom. He made his World Cup debut in November 2016 in Levi, Finland, quickly scoring his first World Cup points by finishing 20th in the slalom at Val-d’Isère in December 2017. Noël continued his rapid ascent into the elite ranks, securing his first top-ten World Cup finish with an eighth-place ranking in the slalom at Kitzbühel in January 2018.

His progression accelerated in February 2018, when he won the slalom at the Junior World Championships in Davos, Switzerland. Noël made his Olympic debut later that year at the 2018 Winter Olympics in Pyeongchang, where he delivered a strong performance, narrowly missing a medal with a fourth-place finish in the slalom. The following season proved to be a breakthrough on the World Cup circuit; in January 2019, he secured his first World Cup podium with a second-place finish in Adelboden, followed just a week later by his first World Cup victory in Wengen. This remarkable series of early career successes also included another victory in Kitzbühel, solidifying his position among the sport’s top talents.

Noël is currently balancing his demanding professional skiing career with academic pursuits, attending the University of Savoy.
