Sponsor for Embacher
ÖSV young star becomes a “bull” eagle!
Great honor for Austria's greatest ski jumping hope! Junior world champion Stephan Embacher now has the same helmet sponsor as eagle legends Andi Goldberger and Thomas Morgenstern. Record winner Gregor Schlierenzauer arranged the deal for his protégé.
"It was a great surprise," said ski jumping hopeful Stephan Embacher, speechless, when Olympic champion Andi Wellinger "crashed" a dinner with friends and family. The German eagle star had brought a new helmet in Red Bull design as a gift for the junior world champion. Stephan is now also a "Bull": "I'm looking forward to a great collaboration in the coming years."
The silver-blue helmet with the red bull is a status symbol in ski jumping. Only the biggest ski jumping stars are allowed to adorn themselves with it. In addition to Wellinger, Japan's high-flyer Ryoyu Kobayashi and ÖSV young star Daniel Tschofenig are currently part of the "bull" stable.
Schlierenzauer as a mentor
The four-time junior world champion has a prominent mentor at his side in Gregor Schlierenzauer. The record World Cup winner also arranged the coup with Red Bull.
The 18-year-old Tyrolean will wear his new "headdress" for the first time this weekend at the summer GP in Hinzenbach.
Fixed place in the World Cup
Embacher has secured his starting place in the upcoming World Cup season. Thanks to a rule reform, the top 3 of the Junior World Championships are now allowed to jump in the World Cup.
