Morzine-Avoriaz has always been a breeding ground for champions.
These athletes are the sporting ambassadors of Morzine, showcasing the resort through their numerous high-level performances. Born in Morzine or regularly training there, these champions bring pride to the resort, following in the footsteps of their illustrious predecessor, Jean Vuarnet!
MORZINE AVORIAZ IS A LAND OF CHAMPIONS"
Everyone seems to be following in the footsteps of Jean Vuarnet, the inventor of the “egg” position in skiing. In 1960, an unusual event shook the life of the village and its inhabitants. Jean-Jean (as the locals called him), the child of Morzine, has just been crowned Olympic downhill champion at Squaw Valley. We wish the same successful career for all our champions who are proudly representing Morzine today!
