At only 17 years old, the first time to participate in the Winter Olympics to enter the final, and even with the first difficulty to beat the world's top three athletes to win the first medal in the history of China, Su Yiming is definitely a rare genius in the Chinese Winter Olympics, just like their name: no sound is already, "Yiming" is amazing.
The Winter Olympic Snowboard Slope Obstacle Course Finals were contested by Su Yiming from China, Gerald from the defending champion United States, McMorris and Palotte from Canada, and Lauzi from Italy. Among them, Gerrard, Cleveland and Mike Morris are currently ranked in the top three in the world, in addition, Gerald, Parot and Mike Morris were also gold, silver and bronze medalists in the last Winter Olympics.
As a young athlete, Su Yiming is his first time to participate in the competition, and he won the highest score of 86.8 points in the first jump of the qualification competition, ranking first among the masters and successfully advancing to the final. It also gave him the advantage of being last on the pitch.
In the first round of the final, Gerald jumped out of the high score of 83.25 points as soon as he came up, quickly grabbing the first place. Lauzi and Paloth were not far behind, scoring 80.01 and 79.86 points respectively. The last one, Su Yiming, appeared in the shouts of thousands of Chinese snow fans, the first jumping platform was 1440 degrees, the third jumping platform was 1620 degrees, and the two 1620 degrees were continuous, and finally landed on the snow steadily. Because the technical action is very well done, the CCTV commentary can't help but praise: the landing is too perfect. Unfortunately, due to a small mistake in the front props, he only scored 78.38 points, temporarily ranking 4th.
In the second round, Palot played well, scoring the highest score of 90.96 points in the game, and quickly rushed to the first place, which was also the only player in the game with more than 90 points. And Su Yiming also played well, the third jump took out the first difficulty of 1800 degrees (reverse foot out of the five weeks 1800 degrees), and after sliding once excitedly fell to the ground, it can be seen how excited he is. Such a difficult and high-quality action also allowed him to get a high score of 88.70 points, rising to the second place. It is worth mentioning that before the Winter Olympics, he also completed the super difficult action of 1980 (inner rotation 1980 grab board) before the Winter Olympics, breaking the world record.
In the final round, McMorris played well, scoring 88.35 points, and finally grabbed a valuable bronze medal for himself, while the other players basically did not have much bright performance, and the mistakes under pressure were flat. In the end, Palot won the gold medal in the project, and Su Yiming won the silver medal.
Although he did not win the championship, Su Yiming still created history and created 4 records: 1. Entered the final for the first time; 2. Won the medal when he entered the final for the first time; 3. Won the silver medal with the first difficulty of 1800. 4. Su Yiming made history and became the first Asian athlete to win a medal in the Winter Olympics, breaking the monopoly of European and American athletes in the men's slope obstacle course. Congratulations To Su Yiming!
