Biography

Hans Zeier was a staff sergeant in the Swiss Army. He failed to finish the 50 km at St. Moritz in 1928 when he broke a ski during the race. Zeier represented his country at the 1930 World Championships in the 17 and 50 km cross-country, but did not place in the top 70. However, in the military ski patrol at the same championships, his Swiss team finished fourth and Zeier was second in the 30 km individually in age group 2.
