Hunter Salani joins the Stifel U.S. Alpine Ski Team for his first year on the development team. Salani grew up skiing out of Vail, Colo. for Ski & Snowboard Club Vail. Some of his top goals include getting a top five result in a NorAm, top ten at World Juniors in speed and becoming an overall better skier and person.

In the 2024-25 season Salani showed strong results in the technical and speed disciplines. In Kimberley, CAN Salani scored four fourth-place finishes in a row in the super-G and downhill. Salani then went on to qualify for his first World Juniors team where he helped propel his Team Combined pair to a bronze medal.

Salani credits Justin Jefferson as being the most influential person in his sporting career because he inspires Salani to be the best version of himself.

Aside from skiing fast, Salani he enjoys golfing, hanging out with friends and playing basketball.
