Claudia's Story

Mogul skier Claudia Gueli made her Olympic debut at PyeongChang 2018. Gueli unfortunately had a fall between her two jumps in the second qualification round, to narrowly miss out on a shot in the first final, finishing 23rd overall.

Gueli joined the NSWIS skiing team as a 15-year-old in 2012 and made her international debut in 2014 at the age of 17. Three years later the mogul skier from Mt Buller made her World Cup debut in January 2017, placing 27th in her first race at Lake Placid, USA.

2017 was a breakthrough season for Gueli who competed in 10 World Cup events in the space of two months. The 20-year-old made her first World Cup final at Thaiwoo Park, China in late February, finishing 13th overall. She also placed 11th in the dual moguls event in Thaiwoo.

When she's not training or competing on the mountain, Gueli loves yoga and surfing, and uses every chance to get to the beach on a hot day.
