Mathies qualified for two alpine snowboarding events (including the first ever men's parallel slalom) at the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi by achieving top three finishes from the FIS World Cup series in Rogla, Slovenia and in Carezza, Italy. In the men's giant slalom, Mathies was disqualified from the tournament after missing a gate on his first seeding run. Three days later, in the men's slalom, Mathies recorded a total time of 58.93 to grab a third spot in the seeding round, but fell short behind Italy's Aaron March in the quarterfinal race by 29-hundredths of a second.
