Freestyle skiing competition time

The Women's Freestyle Ski Jump Qualifier is divided into three rounds, with the first round at 9:30 a.m. tomorrow, the second round at 10:15 a.m. and the third round at 11 a.m. If you can reach the final, the final stage on February 8 will also be divided into three rounds, the first round at 10 o'clock, the second round at 10:22, and the third round at 10:45, which means that the women's freestyle ski champion will be born around 10:50 a.m. on February 8.

As one of the new events added to the Beijing Winter Olympics, this sport has a strong visual impact and has won the hot rod of young people, which is why the International Olympic Committee has introduced it into the Olympic family. Judging from the results of the World Cup and the World Extreme Games in recent snow seasons, the difficulty and innovation of freestyle skiing continue to rise, which makes many participating athletes feel that the competition in the Beijing Winter Olympics will be very fierce.

China's Gu Ailing registered three small events at the Winter Olympics, among which the first cannon was the freestyle ski jump, which is also her main sport for a year, and has caught up with the world's best level in action difficulty. At the World Cup in Stenbot, USA, Gu Ailing won the championship with a forward-sliding forward flip two-turn 1440-degree movement, which made her one of the strong contenders for the title.

Gu Ailing faced a formidable opponent

Judging from the INTERNATIONAL Snow Federation points ranking and past results, athletes from European and American countries have a clear advantage in this event. Although Chinese female athlete Gu Ailing has the strength to rush gold, the competitors she faces are also full of skills, and it will not be easy for anyone who wants to win a gold medal in this newly created event.

The most popular athlete is the Swiss star Mathilde Grimo, who is the number one in the latest points ranking of the International Snow Federation in the event. During the Beijing Winter Olympic cycle, whether it is the World Cup or the World Extreme Games, her winning rate is very high. In terms of the difficulty of the action, Grimo is the first female athlete in the world to complete a two-week backflip + a 1440-degree turn.

In addition, French world champion Tess Ludder, born in 2001, also has strong strength, and it is said that a set of secret weapons has been prepared for the Beijing Winter Olympics, which has also satisfied the appetite of the outside world.

Estonian star Kelly Sildaru, who won the slope obstacle course competition at the Winter Youth Olympics in 2020, is also in a very good competitive state after arriving in Beijing, and she has also defeated Gu Ailing, a master of strength and experience; sarah Hovlin, who won the 2018 Pyeongchang Winter Olympics slope obstacles, also has the ability to compete for the title in the big jump event.

For Gu Ailing, who aspires to attack the championship, although there is still teammate Yang Shuorui participating in this project, due to the large difference in the strength of the latter, Gu Ailing actually faces the competitive situation, just like Zhuge Liang of the tongue battle group, she will be alone to "force" the group Fang. How to find an appropriate balance between the success rate of the action and the difficulty of the action will be the key link for Gu Ailing to achieve good results.
