Andreas Daescher is a ski jumping athlete from Switzerland who is best known for developing the Daescher technique in the 1950's that was the standard technique until the V-style was developed by Jan Boklöv in 1985. The Dasecher technique superseded the Kongsberger technique developed by Jacob Tullin Thams and Sigmund Ruud (both from Norway) after World War I in Kongsberg, Norway.

Daescher's best Olympic finish was 6th in the Large Hill at the Winter Olympics in Cortina d'Ampezzo.
