On December 30, 1979 Weber took part for the first time in a jumping in the newly created Ski Jumping World Cup and reached 10th place in Oberstdorf. On January 6, 1980, he won his first competition in Bischofshofen and, as in 1977/78, he reached 3rd place in the overall ranking of the tour. The victory was also his last jump in the World Cup. In the overall ranking of the World Cup, he was in 27th place at the end of the season.
