Olympic Medallists Santiago Lange / Carlos Espinola Join Zhik
11/04/2008
The hot Argentinian Tornado team, Santiago Lange and Carlos Espinola, have joined the Zhik team for their campaign towards repeated glory at this years Olympics.
There aren’t many sailing disciplines in which Santiago Lange hasn’t already won a medal. He’s flown the flag of Argentina over thirty times in various sailing world championships, in four of these with no small success: he was World Champion in the Snipe class three times, and in 2004 he took the same title in the Tornado class with fellow Argentine Carlos Espínola. He has been Argentine champion 15 times in various classes, South American Champion six times, and once even European Champion. He took the silver medal twice at the Pan American Games, and at his fourth Olympic Games (in Athens), he finally got to hang an Olympic medal around his neck: bronze in the Tornado class. One could continue this impressive list ad infinitum, and even so: the icing on the cake was missing, the crowning glory of a winner’s career—participation in America’s Cup, the best-known and oldest sailing regatta in the world.
Carlos Espinola is the only Argentinian athlete to win three Olympic medals. He has been successful at the last three Olympics with silver medals in the Mistral at Atlanta 1996 and Sydney 2000 and bronze with Santiago in the Tornado in Athens 2004.
