The finals start, the final each player needs to carry out three test jumps, will take two different starting directions of the highest score to get the final result, the fifth ranked Gu Ailing in the qualification round in the eighth place debut, from the situation of the previous few debutants, the final referee score is more stringent, Gu Ailing's first jump is not conservative, directly chose the left turn grab board 1440 forward landing action, After this round, france's players ranked first with 94.50 points, Gu Ailing ranked second, and British youngster Costy Muir ranked third with 90.25 points.
In the second round of the competition, the British player Muir did a reverse 900 action, the difficulty is not high to get 78.75 points, Gu Ailing's reverse direction action this group chose to stabilize a hand, used the first round of yesterday's qualifying action, got 88.50 points, the Swiss player Greymore completed the opposite direction of the first round of Gu Ailing to achieve a reversal, france player Theis again got 90+, stabilized the first place, two rounds later, Gu Ailing's ranking dropped to third place.
In the last round, Gu Ailing can choose to be conservative to keep the medal, after all, the big jump is her sub-event, to ensure that she is not injured to prepare for her main slope obstacle skills and U-shaped pool, the British muse made a serious mistake in the third jump to withdraw from the medal competition, Gu Ailing chose to let go, challenge the left 1620 reverse landing, which he has never reached before, and finally got 94.50 points, surpassing the first! Greymo, who played in the back, made a mistake, France's Theis's backward left turn action 1800 did not succeed, and Gu Ailing won the gold medal!!!
Knowing that the big jump is the weakest of the three events that Gu Ailing has participated in, bless her to continue to realize her dreams in the two signature projects of the back slope obstacle skill and the U-shaped pool!
