Career

Schlütter, who started for WSV Oberhof 05 , started cross-country skiing in the first class in Zella-Mehlis under coach Harald Saft. It finally made its international debut in January 1993 as part of the Cross-Country Continental Cup . In Argentière , he ran into the points for the first time in twelfth place. A few days later he reached the top 10 for the first time in eighth place in Admont . In February he finished second in La Féclaz for the first time on the podium. He repeated this success in March in Oberhof . After another year with good results in the Continental Cup, Schlütter made his debut in the cross-country world cup on March 5, 1994 in Lahti . In his first World Cup, however, he remained without points. It was only in the second World Cup of the 1994/95 season that he made it into the points for the first time as 27th at the Tauplitzalm .

At the Nordic World Ski Championships in 1995 in Thunder Bay , he ran the 30 km in 17th place, before he reached 18th place in the individual over 10 km in classic style. In the 25 km pursuit, he finished 29th. After another 29th place at the following World Cup in Sapporo , he ended his first World Cup season in 38th place overall. In December 1995 in Santa Caterina he reached eighth for the first time in the top 10 of the World Cup. In January 1996 he won two FIS races in Klosters . The 1996/97 season was difficult for Schlütter, which is why he started again in the Continental Cup in January in Furtwangen after rather poor results without World Cup points . There he finished third on a podium. After he reached the points in the World Cup two weeks later as 29th in Lahti, he traveled with the German team to the Nordic World Ski Championships in 1997 in Trondheim . Schlütter only started there in the 50 km individual race. As 40th he stayed in midfield without success. Less than three weeks later, the sports soldier also started at the 1997 Military World Ski Championships in Saint-Gabriel-de-Valcartier . There he ran 15 km freestyle races in 16th place.

In the winter of 1997/98 Schlütter was able to improve his performance again and was again among the top ten in Val di Fiemme . However, after two more places beyond the top 50, he traveled to Campra and started there in the Continental Cup. After a second place he was able to win the second race. At the 1998 Winter Olympics in Nagano , he was part of the German Olympic team and ran over 30 km to 21st place in the first race, before finishing 16th in the subsequent 10 km race. Two days later, he finished 12th in the persecution. In the relay race, he and Jochen Behle , René Sommerfeldt and Johann Mühlegg were beaten by the strong competition and only finished eighth. In the final 50 km individual race, Schlütter was 36th.

In the 1998/99 season Schlütter was in the points in all World Cup races except for the last one in Oslo . His best individual results were two twelfth places in Toblach and Falun . At the 1999 World Championships in Ramsau am Dachstein , he again started only 50 km races. As 23rd he was able to achieve a good result. His best World Cup season to date, he finished 28th overall in March. At the German Championships in 1999 Schlütter won the title over the 50 km individual distance.

After Schlütter did not start internationally in the winter of 1999/2000, he returned to the World Cup squad for the 2000/01 season . After reaching the points with difficulty at the beginning, after the turn of the year in Asiago he was 16th in the sprint again under the top 20. In Otepää he again achieved a good result in 18th. At the following Nordic World Ski Championships in 2001 in Lahti, he crossed the finish line in 13th place after 15 km, before reaching 16th place in the pursuit. In the relay race he won the bronze medal behind the relays from Norway and Sweden with Jens Filbrich , Ron Spanuth and René Sommerfeldt. A year later, the season repeated, but this time Tobias Angerer instead of Spanuth , this success at the 2002 Winter Olympics in Salt Lake City . In the individual over the 50 km, Schlütter narrowly missed his first individual medal as fourth. In the relay world cup in Falun in March he missed his first podium in the relay by finishing fourth. In the end, Schlütter finished his most successful season in 2001/02 as 17th in the overall World Cup standings. He also finished 18th in the overall sprint world cup standings.

In the winter of 2002/03, Schlütter was no longer able to match the success of the previous season. After a 26th place in the first World Cup in Kiruna , he was able to reach the World Cup podium for the first time a day later with the relay in third place. With fourth place in Kuusamo , he narrowly missed his first individual podium. In Nové Město na Moravě the season repeated its success from Kiruna and was again third. At the 2003 World Championships in Val di Fiemme, he won the silver medal with the relay. Before that he had run the 30 km and the 15 km each in fifth place. At the beginning of April Schlütter started at the 2003 Military World Ski Championships in Rovaniemi . There he ran 15 km freestyle races in 25th place. As in 1999, he finished the 2002/03 season as 28th overall.

For the 2003/04 season Schlütter was again part of Germany's World Cup squad. In January 2004 he succeeded with the relay in Otepää, Estonia, for the first time the victory in a World Cup race. A month later, the season in Umeå, Sweden was successful again. As 25th of the overall ranking in the World Cup, a season ended again under the best 30. In January 2005, in Pragelato , he made it onto the podium for the first time in a team sprint together with Sommerfeldt as third. It remained the only team sprint podium in his career. A little later, Schlütter won the cross-country Alpine Cup race in Sankt Jakob im Rosental . At the 2005 World Championships in Oberstdorf , which took place just two days later , he crossed the finish line in 18th place in the sprint. Shortly afterwards he won the silver medal with the relay. In the final 50 km race, he was tenth.

At the beginning of the following 2005/06 season , Schlütter won a World Cup with the relay for the third time. This third success was the last win in his career. At the 2006 Winter Olympics in Turin , he just missed the medal ranks in the team sprint together with Jens Filbrich as fourth. In the relay race he won the silver medal together with Sommerfeldt, Filbrich and Angerer. For winning this silver medal at the 2006 Winter Games in Turin, he received the Silver Laurel Leaf on April 26, 2006. After the end of the 2005/06 season Schlütter ended his active career.

After the end of his career, Schlütter began studying dentistry and training as a trainer at the same time. In 2008 he started again at an FIS race in Albu , which he finished 15th. After he started studying sports in the meantime, he was interviewed for the post of national coach for Germany in 2012. But since he had not finished his studies, he turned down this position. In 2014 Schlütter took over the position of sporting director for cross-country skiing at the German Ski Association from Björn Weisheit .
