biography
Buder learned to ski at the age of four.

After that she started mainly in the European Cup . She won her first World Cup points in the 1982/83 season , the best result of the season was tenth place in the Davos slalom on January 11, 1983. In that year she also won her first European Cup races and, after she was second in the February 19, 1981 Slalom, now Austrian champion in the same discipline.
In the next two years, Buder was mainly involved in the European Cup and won the overall and slalom rankings in the 1984/85 season with three wins and another six podium places. From the 1985/86 season she was back in the World Cup and reached the podium for the first time on December 5, 1986 with third place in Waterville Valley . With three other top ten places she was tenth in the slalom classification at the end of the 1986/87 season . The highlight of this winter was the world championship in Crans-Montana , where it finished fourth.
In the 1987/88 season she could not connect to her previous year's results and failed in the team's internal qualification for the Olympic Games in Calgary . Also in the following winter she did not achieve top results and so she could not take part in the World Championships in Vail , but in 1989 she became Austrian slalom champion for the second time.
In the 1989/90 season her results improved significantly and she was able to establish herself in the World Cup. Overall, Buder was among the top five six times and celebrated her first and only World Cup victory in the slalom in Stranda on March 11th. So she reached fourth place in the slalom classification. In the 1990/91 season she was fifth twice and thus qualified for the World Championship in Saalbach-Hinterglemm , but fell there in the first round. In the final ranking she came in tenth in the slalom classification. The 1991/92 season began with several top ten places and at the Olympic Games in Albertville she reached fifth place in slalom. A little later, she finished third in the Sundsvall World Cup slalom and finished sixth in the slalom ranking. At the end of this winter she became Austrian champion for the third time.
In the 1992/93 season , Buder achieved the next podium finish on January 17 in Cortina d'Ampezzo , and she was among the top five twice more. The absolute highlight of her career followed at the 1993 World Championships in Morioka-Shizukuishi . Before the American Julie Parisien and the Austrian Elfi Eder , she was world champion in slalom. It was with start no. 1 started the race, was only 7th, but with the fastest time in the second run she went for gold.
