Here's Mikayla schiffren.
This will echo through the
corridors of alpine history.
We have just witnessed arguably
the greatest season of all time!
17 wins, 4 crystal globes.
Mikayla's masterpiece.
>> Incredible!
>> I have chills!
>> I know.
The win last weekend.
Arguably capped the greatest
season in skiing history.
The stats.
Just this season, the first-ever
to win an all six disciplines,
first ever so lum gold four
years in a row, 17 wins in 1
season.
Oh yeah, of course four world
cup finishes.
>> Two-time olympic gold
medalist.
>> I'm exhausted.
>> Just turned 24 last week.
Welcome.
We are so glad you're with us
today!
>> Thank you.
It's good to be here and talk to
you guys.
>> How does it feel when we say
everything that you've already
accomplished?
>> Well, it really made me smile
but I just -- I have to say I'm
looking at the TV right now and
there's a little red circle in
the square in the middle of it
and I saw it and I'm like, my
lipstick is all over my teeth.
You saw my face.
What is that on my face?
>> You're a girlie girl after
speaking of that.
You are a girl's girl.
Talk about your accomplishments.
When you look at in it terms of
your male cownerparts
accomplished, third year in a
row, you have out-earned all the
guys in your sport.
I mean, that's insane.
When you think about what I love
about alpine sports and skiing
is that you are equals in that
regard.
>> Yeah.
No.
It's been --
>> Go ahead.
>> Watching this.
Oh my gosh.
If you put -- okay.
If you put video of ski racing
on I'll watch, analyze.
>> Critique the technique?
>> That pole plant was a little
bit mistimed.
It is exciting to be part of a
sport I would say in many ways
leading the charge on, you know,
as far as addressing the gender
pay gap and there is none in ski
racing.
Women's and men's prize money is
the same and it is really
exciting.
The sport has definitely -- male
dominated in the sense of many
more male -- men around, there's
more men coaches, more -- yeah.
But the pay gap is nonexistent.
That's the thing -- I mean, I
don't know.
It's such a big deal these days
and it's something --
>> Huge.
>> Yeah.
It's something I'm like, you
guys need to -- I'm excited --
I'm happy you asked about it
because it's a good message to
get out there.
I mean, it is -- we are leading
the charge there and not many
people know about that.
But for me, yeah, it is amazing
to be outearning the men and
amazing to have the opportunity
to.
>> I love you're watching each
other.
The pole, the ski.
>> Right?
>> Coming off an incredible
season, what do you do to relax?
>> Well, eventually, some point
this ski, I try to get to a
beach somewhere.
But right now, I have a couple
days in the city, a little bit
of media and then visit my Nana.
Like, that was so cute.
And she's -- she reminds me of
my Nana and made me nostalgic
and get sometime off.
>> Family is so important to
you.
Let's talk about -- you were
there, of course, for Lindsey's
final run and she said she views
you as in a league of your own.
You know?
She, of course, chasing the
world cup 86 titles.
You have maybe 60 or more than
that.
Are you chasing a title, too?
>> You know, I'm not.
I'm not chasing.
I feel like my biggest goal for
my skiing, my results goals,
have to do with the season
titles, winning the overall
globe, the gf globe, the solam
globe and accomplished that this
season and that dream continues.
It doesn't die because I
achieved it and I have the
motivation and the passion to
keep going out every day and
working hard and trying to ski
faster and ski better.
And it's not really -- for me,
it is not really about chasing
those numbers or the statistics
but doing my best on my skis
every, every day and it's
also -- I'm trying to push the
limits not only push my own
limits in the sport but push the
limits of the sport and raise
the level of women's ski racing
and cool right now and girls who
are very competitive and it's
been a really exciting season.
I mean, I know I have a big
number of wins to my name from
this season but every race was a
fight and there's a lot of
competition and it's sort of
pretty exciting time to be -- to
be racing because if you just
don't know what will happen and
every single girl is putting
their best out there and --
>> Yeah.
>> I feel in many ways I feel
lucky that the season went the
way that it did.
>> We feel lucky getting to wash
you an the accomplishments.
Thank you for everything you
have done for women, for pay
gap, for the sport.
We can't wait to continue to
watch you.
>> Beijing is next.
>> Here we go.
>> Here we come!
