Career
Kline made his World Cup debut in December 2009 in the Super Combined at Val d'Isere, France. He competed for Slovenia at the 2015 FIS Alpine World Ski Championships. He failed to finish the super-G, finished 33rd in the Downhill and was disqualified during the slalom run of the super combined.
In January 2016, Kline attained his first podium, a second-place finish in downhill at Garmisch-Partenkirchen, Germany, finishing behind Aleksander Aamodt Kilde. About a month later, he achieved a second place podium finish in Hinterstoder in the super G, again finishing behind Kilde.
He gained his first World Cup victory in Norway at Kvitfjell in a downhill in February 2017.
