As a student, he achieved numerous victories at regional events as well as some successes at national and international level. In 2003 and 2005 he was Austrian school master four times. In 2005 he won the gold medal in slalom and the bronze medal in giant slalom at the Trofeo Topolino in Pinzolo, Italy, as well as the silver medal in slalom at the Whistler Cup in Whistler-Blackcomb, Canada .

Wieser has been participating in FIS races since the 2005/2006 season , and since January 2008 also in European Cup races . At the Austrian youth championships in January 2009, he won the Super-G and the combined in his youth class II. Five weeks later, he took part in the 2009 Junior World Championships in Garmisch-Partenkirchen , where he was eliminated twice and only finished 13th in the downhill.

After Wieser had won a total of five FIS races in 2009 and was then promoted from the junior to the B-squad of the ÖSV, he achieved a top 10 result in the European Cup for the first time on January 14, 2010 as ninth downhill on Patscherkofel at home .
