Do your best, Habu knotted!
On February 10, in the men's singles free skating competition of figure skating at the Beijing 2022 Winter Olympics, Japan's Yu yusuke finally finished fourth. Although Yusei yushin was unable to get an ice pier, his courage to challenge the impossible touched all the audience.
In the final, Yusuke Challenged the 4A (Axel 4 Week Jump) that he had always dreamed of. This action requires him to jump 20 inches away from the ice surface in a lag time of 0.7 seconds and rotate around in the air, that is, 1620 degrees.
The speed in the air is equivalent to the speed of a car's wheels when driving to 50 miles, and when it lands, it will be subject to an impact force equivalent to 5 to 8 times its own weight.
This action, which has never been publicly successfully done, was once described by the "figure skating emperor" Pushchenko as "breaking through the limits of mankind" and "impossible task".
Yusei has trained for this difficult move countless times.
If he hadn't ventured into this impossible task, he would have been able to keep his championship, and what I admire most was whether he knew whether to take the risk or choose this difficult action.
Although he failed to complete it successfully, his brave performance of challenging himself and climbing the peak was admirable, and under the influence of the atmosphere of the competition and the pressure of other high-level players, he was often able to break through the limits, which also reflected a major feature of the Olympic spirit: transcendence! #羽生结弦 #
