Roman Rees
Roman started cross-country skiing and biathlon at the age of seven and was able to celebrate many successes in his youth, such as overall victory in the school cup and the German Cup. His first appearances in the World Cup followed in the 2016/2017 season, and Roman then celebrated his first World Cup victory in the 20-kilometre individual race in Östersund in 2024. He is now a permanent fixture in the World Cup team.
3 questions for Roman
What is your favourite JOKA product and why? My favourite product is the Calgary 435 LD parquet flooring. The floor has a very natural wood structure, which feels like wellness for your feet when you walk on it, and at the same time the floor just looks really good. The product is also in my home and guests are always delighted when they see the floor for the first time.
What is your greatest strength?
My greatest strength is perhaps my perseverance, in the sense that I continue to work on my goals with discipline even when things aren't going so well.
How did you get into biathlon?
I got into biathlon because of my proximity to the biathlon stadium at Notschrei. My home town is only five kilometres away from there. And as both my father and my grandfather were already involved in winter sports themselves, it was a very natural step to start biathlon at Notschrei when I was six or seven.
