“Longines Rising Ski Stars” award given to Mikaela Shiffrin and Alexis Pinturault
Cooperation of the watch company Longines with ski competitions began in Chamonix in 1933. Since then, during decades Longines represents an important innovation in watch mechanisms that meet the requirements of modern timekeeping. For example, in 1993, Longines has developed TV technology, which reflects the time relative to each fastest athlete of the competition.
The winner of prizes from Longines, said: "This is great - to encourage young athletes to new records, and such initiatives do help, because we do not always compete for the country or title - and now the youth has a prestigious Cup".
