At the Super-G discipline he finished in third position behind Kjetil André Aamodt and Stephan Eberharter to win the bronze medal.

[1] Since 2004 Schifferer was no longer able to achieve top rankings in World Cup races, but mainly finished in the middle of the bunch instead.

[1] During his career he won a total of eight World Cup meetings, seven in downhill and one on the Super G.[4] On 13 December 2006 Schifferer announced his retirement from the sport.
