Vinzenz Geiger won the World Cup for the first time in his career, securing seven victories throughout the season, as well as claiming the Compact Trophy, Ruka Tour, and Nordic Combined Triple.
Nathalie Armbruster won the World Cup for the first time in her career, also securing her first-ever victory at this level. In addition, she claimed the Compact Trophy and made history as the first woman ever to win the Nordic Combined Triple.

The 2024–25 FIS Nordic Combined World Cup, organized by the International Ski Federation (FIS), was the 42nd World Cup season for men and the 5th season for women as the highest level of international nordic combined competitions.[1][2][3]

The men's season started on 29 November 2024 in Ruka, Finland and concluded on 22 March 2025 in Lahti, Finland.[4] The women's season started on 6 December 2024 in Lillehammer, Norway and concluded on 16 March 2025 in Oslo, Norway.[5]

The season took a break in February and March due to the FIS Nordic World Ski Championships 2025 in Trondheim, Norway.

Jarl Magnus Riiber (men's) and Ida Marie Hagen (women's), both from Norway, were the reigning champions from the previous season. However, they failed to defend their titles, both finishing second overall in the World Cup standings. Riiber also ended his career during the competition in Oslo.[6]

The new World Cup winners for the season were Germany’s Vinzenz Geiger and Nathalie Armbruster.

Season overview

In April 2024, during the subcommittee meeting for calendar planning in Prague, the proposed schedule for the 2024–25 World Cup season was published. The competition programs were officially approved at a meeting in Portorož on 8 May.

Starting this season, a separate Mass Start Trophy was introduced, with the winner receiving a mini crystal globe at the end of the season. Additionally, the format of the Nordic Combined Triple was changed to include a Mass Start, a Compact event and a Gundersen competition (12.5 km for men, 7.5 km for women) for both genders.

Two competitions were scheduled in Oslo, marking the large hill World Cup debut for women.[7] Both events were won by Gyda Westvold Hansen.[8]

On 7 June 2024, it was announced that the World Cup competitions set for 10–11 January 2025 at the modernized Trampolino Dal Ben (HS143) in Predazzo would not take place. The organizers decided to cancel the pre-Olympic trials six months in advance due to delays in facility reconstruction.[9]

The competitions planned for late January in Hakuba were also cancelled for financial reasons. A potential replacement in Klingenthal failed to materialize for the same reason.
