Since his dismissal, he has appeared in the ski circus as an advisor to the Austrian ski team. Now there is an additional role: Mayer will become an ambassador for the 2025 World Ski Championships in Saalbach (A).

«Skiing was and still is my life. I was enthusiastic about the overall concept for the World Cup in Saalbach and am convinced that I will be able to experience a real sports festival in February 2025,” Mayer said in a statement. He has fond memories of the World Cup location from 1991 and 2025: Mayer won two World Cup races in Saalbach in 2015. (cmu)
