biography

Eberle started skiing at the age of six. Her sister, Sigrid Eberle , who was five years her senior , also became a ski racer, and her father was active in Nordic skiing in the 1950s . In the pupil II age group, Eberle was Austrian pupil champion in 1970 in combination and in 1971 in slalom. After being accepted into the squad of the Austrian Ski Association , she was regularly used in the European Cup in the winter of 1972/73 . She was a good all-rounder, won both a downhill run in Schladming and a slalom in Barèges and was third in the overall ranking. After another victory in the European Cup giant slalom in Folgarida in the 1973/74 season , she came to her first appearances in the World Cup towards the end of the same winter . With two tenth places in the slaloms of Abetone and Vysoké Tatry , she immediately won her first World Cup points. In addition, she became Austrian youth champion (youth II) in slalom and giant slalom that same winter.

In the next two years Eberle continued to start primarily in the European Cup. She reached numerous podium places and in the 1975/76 season for the second time the third place overall. From the following winter 1976/77 she was now regularly used in the World Cup. After three top 10 placings, Eberle achieved her first podium and at the same time her best World Cup result in the last giant slalom of the season on March 24, 1977 in the Sierra Nevada as second behind the Swiss Lise-Marie Morerod . In the next winter of 1977/78 further top 10 placements were added, but their results were not enough for participation in the 1978 World Cup in Garmisch-Partenkirchen .

The entire 1978/79 season Eberle had to pause due to injury. She was then able to seamlessly follow on from her earlier results and reached third place in the Arosa World Cup on January 16, 1980, her second podium finish in the World Cup, with which she also qualified for the 1980 Winter Olympics in Lake Placid . There she reached sixth place in the downhill, 13th place in the slalom and 14th place in the giant slalom, with which she won the bronze medal in the three-way combination, which is only counted as a world championship competition. At the end of the 1979/80 season she achieved her best final result in the World Cup with 16th place overall, and she was also the Austrian state champion in giant slalom. The next winter of 1980/81 was much weaker, as she was only able to finish in the top ten once as seventh on the Altenmarkt-Zauchensee descent . The downhill had now become her strongest discipline, but she continued to start in slalom and combined, but no longer took part in the giant slalom World Cup.

In the 1981/82 season Eberle's results improved again. Among other things, she achieved two fifth places in the downhill runs of the SDS races in Grindelwald and secured a place in the Austrian squad for the 1982 World Cup in Schladming . There it was not used in the downhill, but in slalom and combined. She finished the slalom in 13th place, but in the combination she remained without a result after a failure in the second slalom run. After her second national championship title, this time in combination, Eberle resigned from ski racing at the end of the 1981/82 season. In the same year she opened a sports shop in Bregenz .
