A great ambassador for Swiss skiing.
One of his best sporting moments during the era with Maria Walliser, Michela Figini and Hess was the World Cup in Crans-Montana, where the Swiss won all 5 gold medals.
Even after his time with the National Ski Association, Reymond made a strong commitment to skiing, for example by organizing youth runs and camps with Hess, or accompanying athletes on their way to work after their sports career. He was also involved in politics, most recently as President of the St-Légier Town Hall.
