On the morning of February 5, the Yunding Ski Park in the Zhangjiakou Area of the Beijing Winter Olympics held a preliminary round for snowboard slope obstacle courses. The event was first listed as an official sport at the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi, and Chinese athletes have failed to participate in the past two Olympic Games. Therefore, Jung, a 20-year-old Chinese girl who participated in this competition, became the first athlete in China to compete in the Winter Olympic Games.
The snowboard slope obstacle course qualifiers are held in two rounds, and the top 12 skaters in the two rounds advance to the final. Jung fell sadly on the first slide, but she got up and tenaciously continued to complete the rest of the moves, including the last difficulty of the 720-degree rotation, which was successfully completed, and finally scored 29.36 points. In the second round, Jung, who appeared again, still chose to compete with the moves he was most familiar with and was best at, but unfortunately he accidentally fell on the third obstacle bar, which affected her speed of sliding, and she could not complete the performance of the remaining actions, and finally ranked 25th among the 30 contestants, and did not qualify for the final stage.
"It's a pity, but I will be more serious and hard to prepare for the big jump." After the game, she said, "I am really proud to represent China in such a big competition, and I cherish the opportunity to compete with so many great athletes." ”
