Beijing, February 5 (Xinhua) -- The Beijing Winter Olympics will produce 7 gold medals in the snow event and speed skating event on the 6th, which is the strength of European and American countries, and fierce competition is inevitable; for the Chinese legion, many projects are participating for the first time, and the goal is to seek a breakthrough.
On the morning of the 6th, the final of women's slope steeplechase skills in snowboarding will be held at The Genting Ski Park in Zhangjiakou Division, which is one of the most creative and ornamental snow sports. For the first time, China has athletes participating in this event, but young jung did not qualify in the qualifiers on the 5th and did not qualify for the final. New Zealand's Zoe Sadowski Sinnott, Japan's Shinsuke Murase and Finland's Enni Rukaelvi were strong contenders for the gold medal.

If the sky is the best, the National Alpine Ski Center "Snow Flying Swallow" will witness the birth of the men's downhill gold medal in alpine skiing. This project is greatly affected by the weather, and the ornamental and dangerous aspects coexist. Two Austrian athletes are favourites to win the championship, one is Matthias Meier, the gold medal in men's downhill at the Sochi Winter Olympics, and the other is Vincent Krichmeier, the men's downhill champion at the 2021 World Championships. China's Zhang Yangming and Xu Mingfu will also participate in the event, and in the first official training session on the 3rd, the two ranked 53rd and 55th respectively.

The finalists of the men's 5000 meters of speed skating are gathered. Kramer, a famous player from the "kingdom of speed skating" in the Netherlands, aims to hit four consecutive titles, and he broke his own Olympic record at the PyeongChang Winter Olympics to win the championship and win three gold medals in the event. However, the 35-year-old Cramer will face strong competition from world record holder Nils van der Boule of Sweden.
German veteran Felix Loch will strike for his fourth Winter Olympic gold medal. He will compete with his teammate Johannes Ludwig and Austria's Winter Olympic champion David Greischer in the men's single bobsleigh race on the 6th.
The freestyle ski event will be awarded the women's snow skills gold medal on the same day. Canada and the United States are traditional powerhouses of freestyle skiing, but 17-year-old Japanese player Ari Kawamura is also not to be underestimated, and it is very likely to become the youngest olympic medalist in freestyle skiing.

The day will also determine the cross-country skiing men's double chase (15 km traditional technology + 15 km free technology) gold medal, and the highly ornamental ski jump event will produce the men's individual standard platform gold medal.
In addition, the Chinese curling mixed doubles team will play a double match in one day, and challenge the British team and the Italian team in the round robin tournament on the 6th. The Chinese figure skating team will continue to play in the team competition.
