Felix Steiger (born 18 July 1980) is a Swiss former sailor, who specialized in the two-person dinghy (470) class.[1] Together with his partner Tobias Etter, he was named one of the country's top sailors in the double-handed dinghy for the 2008 Summer Olympics, finishing in a distant twenty-third place.[2] Outside his Olympic career, he and Etter locked the podium spot with a bronze in the men's 470 at the 2005 Summer Universiade in İzmir, Turkey.[3][4] Steiger trained most of his sporting career at Schloss Greifensee Sailing Club in the outskirts of Zürich.[5]
Steiger competed for the Swiss sailing squad, as a crew member in the men's 470 class, at the 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing.[6] He and skipper Etter topped the Swiss Sailing Federation's selection criteria for a coveted spot on the Olympic team, based on their cumulative scores attained in a series of international regattas, including their top 40 finish at the Worlds nearly eight months earlier in Melbourne, Australia.[7] The Swiss duo successfully posted a triad of single-digit marks each in races 3, 5, and 9, but a random wave of substandard outcomes throughout the series pushed both Etter and Steiger to the middle of a 29-boat fleet, sitting them in twenty-third overall with 162 net points.[2][8]
