Friedrich Schneider (1898-1987) was one of the best known characters of the 20th century in Stuben am Arlberg. The younger brother of Hannes Schneider, he won the downhill run at the first Arlberg-Kandahar race in 1928. He founded the Stuben ski school, was director of the Zürs ski school for around 40 years, and was also co-owner of the Hotel Lorünser. What's more, he also worked for decades in a home agriculture.
