Career

A daughter of a Swedish mother and a German father, Aicher grew up in Sundsvall, Sweden, where she started skiing and joined the local ski club. Later, she moved with her parents to Engelberg and then back to Sundsvall.
In March 2019, Aicher won the U16 Slalom of the FIS Children Cup, representing Sweden. Later that year, she took part in her first FIS races. In 2020, she joined the German Ski Association, for the reason of "better training opportunities in the Alps". Making her debut in the Europa Cup in December 2020, she took her first podium in slalom in January 2021.
Three weeks later, Aicher represented Germany at the World Championships, where she won bronze in the team event. That November on her eighteenth birthday, she made her World Cup debut in a parallel giant slalom at Lech/Zürs, Austria.
Without a top 30 result in World Cup downhill through January 2025, Aicher finished sixth in both [FIS Alpine World Ski Championships 2024–25 FIS Alpine Ski World Cup|2025 – Women's downhill|downhill] and super-G at the World Championships in early February. Three weeks later at a pair of downhill races in Kvitfjell, Norway, she gained her first World Cup podium and followed it up with a victory the next day.
