Even Su Yiming praised Parot's perfect movements, and he conquered the world after suffering from cancer two years ago

Two years after beating cancer, Parrott finally reached the top of the Winter Olympics for the first time.

When Max? When Parrott won the gold medal in the men's steeplechase of the snowboard with a super high score of 90.96 in the second jump, there were voices of doubt about the 27-year-old Canadian on social media.

"Why did Su Yiming successfully jump out of 1800, but the score was lower than Parot?" "Why are there two Canadian referees in a final?" These doubts all come from outside the industry, and in the eyes of the industry, Parrott's champion is blameless.

Parot's performance in the props section is simple and unpretentious, compared to Su Yiming's lack of personality, but its all-color turning body up and down the railing action is better in the number of rotation weeks and difficulty; and in the jumping area, the Canadian completed three consecutive three-week deflection rotation, two of which are 1620, and it is not surprising that the full set of actions got super high scores, and don't forget, Parot is known as the "deflection rotation textbook" in the circle, and his deflection rotation action can be called a scoring standard. Su Yiming, who has a good personal relationship with Parot, also said bluntly: "Max really completed a great set of actions today. ”

Although Parot was runner-up in the veneer barrier at the PyeongChang Winter Olympics, he actually had a stronger dominance in the big jumping arena. The Canadian won five-time veneer jumping at the Winter Extreme Games, and since he began playing at the Extreme World Event in 2013, he has had medals in his account for six consecutive years until 2019, when, a week before the opening of the Winter Extreme Games, Parot officially announced that he had Hodgkin's lymphoma.

"I was 24 years old, I was in very good health, I was still a professional athlete, but I had cancer. This proves that it can happen to anyone. After six months, 12 rounds of chemotherapy, Parrott finally defeated cancer, "letting cancer beat me was never an option for me." I fight very hard every day and expect to overcome it. But a lot of times, I live in fear. You don't know how effective the treatment will be, what life has in store for you. ”

After battling cancer for half a year and spending just two months frantically on recovery, Parot returned to the professional arena in August 2019. Cancer lost some of his time and completely changed him, "Whether it was me as an ordinary person or as an athlete, I was completely changed after that cancer." Parot says that my past self always took everything for granted, but now, "every time I put on a snowboard, I am grateful that it allows me to engage in my beloved sport." I laugh more, am more positive about everything, put less pressure on myself and put less burden on myself. ”

"The most important thing is to do your best to achieve what you want to do, on the snowboard, and have fun." In Beijing, Parot finally reached the highest peak of his life. This is a tribute to his past, and perhaps a new chapter.
