Beside that he was a successful Schwinger and member of the Schwingklub Winterthur. But he could never win the Eidgenössische Schwing- und Älplerfest, closest to the win he was in 1927, where he made a draw in the final round against Ernst Kyburz. But in the same year he won the first edition of the Kilchsberger Schwinget, which is after the Eidgenössisches Schwing- und Älplerfest the most important competition.
