It is certainly not for everyone to experience the thrill of challenging the best skiers on the five most famous World Cup slopes: Gröden (IT), Bormio (IT), Wengen (CH), Kitzbühel (AT) and Val d'Isère (F). And what's more, without taking any risks, sitting comfortably at home. In a virtual way, of course, by pressing keys on the computer keyboard, but the fun is guaranteed. Giving this opportunity is Longineswhich gives away free download of the new 3D game Ski Challenge 2008. From December 2007 to February 2008, you can download the various slopes onto your PC: each computer slope 'weighs' about 10-15 Mb (downloadable in a few minutes with a high-speed connection). You do not need a special graphics card or any specific plug-in. Simply install the downloaded file, and you can start training.
By registering, you have the opportunity to participate in qualifying and eventually in the final (if you beat a set time). You will also be able to compare your times with those of the other competitors, and even follow one of them during the race in overlay (ghost mode). At the end of the five races, the participants who have competed in all the races will be ranked. The best competitors will take home prizes from Longines and its partners. In particular, five Longines Sport Collection watches will be awarded.
