Laura Grasemann (born April 30, 1992 in Wiesloch ) is a German freestyle skier in the moguls discipline .
Career
Laura Grasemann has been with SC Wiesloch since the beginning of her career in 2008 . In February 2008 she contested her first race in the European Cup in Chatel and was fifth in the Moguls discipline and tenth in the Dual Moguls discipline. In December of that year she contested her first races in the World Cup in Méribel and finished 24th in the Dual Moguls discipline. In February 2009, Grasemann won the first Dual Moguls European Cup race in Megève . In December 2010, the first World Cup points were won in the Moguls discipline in Ruka . In 2012 she won the title at the German Championships at Sudelfeld , and at the Junior World Championships in Chiesa she was seventh (moguls) and five (dual moguls).
Her best World Cup placement to date was achieved by Grasemann in January 2014 in Calgary , where she was 12th in the Moguls discipline and qualified for the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi . In qualifying for the final of the games on the track in Rosa Chutor, Grasemann finished 26th after an early fall in the first round of qualification. In the second qualification she reached 12th place and missed the Olympic final of the top ten by just four points.
Despite a complete funding stop for the entire mogul slope discipline by the German Ski Association, Laura Grasemann continued her career with self-organized funding. At the World Championships in January 2015 in Kreischberg, she was ninth in the Moguls and 11th in the Dual Moguls. Immediately afterwards she took twelfth place in the World Cup race in Lake Placid.
In 2016, the German mogul slope team founded their own team (Freestyleteam Moguls Germany) in order to enable basic funding through sponsors. Grasemann finished ninth in the World Cup race in Tazawako in February 2016 and was eighth in the World Cup final in Moscow a week later. In March 2018, she was the first German to finish on the podium in over 15 years and achieved third place in the Dual Moguls in Tazawako. Two weeks later she was fourth in the World Cup final in Megève, where she had won her first European Cup race nine years earlier.
