Tomáš Goder (born September 4, 1974 in Desná ) is a former Czech ski jumper .

Goder played his first international tournament with the Junior World Championship in 1991 in Reit im Winkl . He won the silver medal on the normal hill (K70) and in the team competition. After this success, Goder competed on March 23, 1991 with ski flying in Planica, his first jump in the ski jumping World Cup . He was unsuccessful as well as at the beginning of the 1991/92 season . It was not until December 15, 1991 that he was able to win World Cup points for the first time in 13th place in Sapporo . In ski flying in Oberstdorf on January 25 and 26, 1992, he was able to jump into the top ten for the first time with two fourth places.

At the age of 17 he was part of the contingent for the 1992 Winter Olympics . He jumped from the normal hill to 48th place and from the large hill to 20th place. In team competition he won the bronze medal together with Jiří Parma , František Jež and Jaroslav Sakala .

At the ski flying world championship held shortly afterwards in Harrachov in 1992 , Goder came fourth. Despite further good placements and 21st place in the overall World Cup ranking of the 1991/92 season, he also jumped in the Ski Jumping Continental Cup from 1992 onwards . There, however, as in the World Cup, he remained largely unsuccessful in the following years. At the ski flying world championship in Planica in 1994 he was 20 again.

Goder played his last World Cup on December 12, 1997 in Harrachov. In the weeks that followed, he jumped a few more times in the Continental Cup before ending his active ski jumping career in 1998 at the age of 24.
