February 7, Beijing time, the third match day of the Beijing Winter Olympics.
Snowboarding men's slope obstacle course competition continued today, in the qualifiers that ended yesterday, the mainland teenager Su Yiming played excellently, with 86.80 points in the first place, which is very surprising, before the game we generally expect Su Yiming to win medals, but from his state yesterday, gold medal is not a luxury, but the qualification results are not counted in the final competition, Su Yiming also needs to continue the hot state.
At the beginning of the competition, a total of 12 players participated in the final, and three rounds of competition were played, and each player was ranked by the highest score of the three groups to determine the medal ownership. The third Pyeongchang Winter Olympic silver medalist Canada's Carlotte scored 79.86 points, the defending champion Norway only scored 52 points for mistakes, Italy's Rauch chose a set of less difficult moves, but the action approached perfectly to get 80.10 points, and the American gerrard was even better with 83.20 points.
Su Yiming appeared as the first and last in the qualifiers, a set of actions flowing smoothly, landing smoothly, so that the Chinese audience at the scene was very happy to see. However, after a long ruling by the referee, Su Yiming was finally given 78.38 points after the first round of ranking fourth, it can be said that although this score is controversial, but Su Yiming's second jumping platform has a hand-to-hand situation, and the last jumping platform is also somewhat conservative in difficulty, and the score is a little inferior.
In the second round of the competition, this round of players began to increase the difficulty, the error rate is very high, in the 11 players who played before Su Yiming, The Canadian star Carlot greatly improved his score, Came to 90.96 points, another Canadian player also got 80 points, Su Yiming's second set of actions chose greater difficulty, and in the last jumping platform chose the first 1800 turning action of the whole game, but in the second roof jump there was a hand-to-hand situation, and finally the referee gave a score of 88.70 points, ranking to the second place, the medal is close at hand!
In the last round, all the players let go, but Carlot did not continue to challenge the high difficulty, completed a very simple set of actions, retained his own 90.96 points, with the penultimate American player mistakes, Su Yiming has secured a medal, Su Yiming's last set of actions, finally overcame the roof landing problem, the last jump again completed the 1800 side axis rotation, unfortunately the penultimate jumping platform had a small mistake, and finally got 66.58 points, got a silver medal.
Although regrettably missing the gold medal! Still congratulations to Su Yiming for creating the best result in the history of Chinese men's snowboarding, I believe he will bring us more surprises on his main jumping platform.
