Atomic No. 1 brand in Ramsau and Vail
The Racing Team of Atomic, a subsidiary of Amer Group, celebrated in the World Ski Championships in Ramsau, Austria and Vail, USA. Most of the gold medals were won by athletes using Atomic's equipment, stresses Michael Schineis, President of Atomic.
The undisputed king of the Nordic Ski World Championships in Ramsau was Finland's Mika Myllylä with three gold medals and one silver - two of his world championships were won with Atomic's brand-new Beta Skate skis. The best female athlete in Atomic's Racing Team was Russia's Larissa Lazutina, a winner of two gold medals. Atomic's world champions also include Mikhail Botwinov (Austria), Bjarte-Engen Vik (Norway), Samppa Lajunen (Finland), Olga Danilova (Russia) and Nina Gavriljuk (Russia).
In all Atomic's Racing Team captured 32 medals in Ramsau, including 12 gold medals, making Atomic a clear No. 2 in the competition between ski manufacturers.
A total of 42 medals won in Ramsau and Vail is clear evidence that Atomic's R&D investment is paying off, Schineis says. A new type of ski structure based on Beta Technology, first introduced in alpine skis, has now been applied to cross-country skis which we fully expect to become as great a success as the popular Beta alpine skis.
