Chinese Legion: Women's Event Full Participation Six Minor Events Will Stage "China Debut"
In the women's U-shaped field final of snowboarding at the 2018 Pyeongchang Winter Olympics, China's Liu Jiayu won the silver medal with a score of 89.75 points, achieving a historic breakthrough for Chinese athletes in the event.
With the breakthrough of Pyeongchang, everyone paid a lot of attention to projects such as U-shaped venues, which is also because the small event began to build a team in 2003, with a relatively long training time and relatively rich experience. However, other small events have begun to build teams in recent years, followed by the introduction of multi-party technical assistance, and this time will also participate in the first time in 6 small events.
Liu Jiayu and Cai Xuetong were at the award ceremony of the 2019 2021 Ski World Cup. Xinhua News Agency reporters Wang Xiao and Li Yang
What to watch in the game: Veterans and new stars shine together
"King of Snowboarding" – Sean White

Previously, he won gold medals at both the 2010 Vancouver Winter Olympics and the 2006 Turin Winter Olympics, making him the athlete with the most Olympic gold medals in snowboarding. Three Olympic gold medals in hand is not enough! He is currently working on his fifth Winter Olympics and is looking forward to defending his gold medal in U-Shaped Field Skills while winning a historic fourth individual gold medal. Whether it can be achieved or not, Sean White will further write his "veteran legend".
The youngest snowboard champion in history – Chloe King

Project Fun Facts: The Globally Popular Winter Project Was Born By Accident?
In the 1960s, a ski enthusiast named Sherman made a ski for his child modeled on a seaboard to relive the joys of summer, allowing the child to step on the ski and pull a rope to slide on the snow. Later, Brunswick, a bowling company, wanted to find new business opportunities before its competitors, so it took the opportunity to vigorously promote skis as skateboards suitable for winter play.
So, snowboarding was really born unexpectedly under multiple coincidences.
