Xinhua News Agency, Beijing, December 28, 2021 - The Sports Department of Xinhua News Agency named the top ten athletes in China in 2021. Among them, the youngest athlete is 18-year-old Gu Ailing, who is the only athlete to participate in the Winter Olympics.
In March 2021, Gu Ailing won 2 gold and 1 bronze at the World Freestyle Ski Championships. In December, she returned from injury to win the Grand Vault World Cup in The Steamboat Station in the United States, and created a history of women's players completing a two-week front flip plus a four-week turn in a freestyle ski competition.
In the early morning of December 11, 2021, the 2021/2022 freestyle skiing World Cup in the United States, the final of the women's doubleboard U-shaped track skill, 18-year-old China's Gu Ailing won the championship with 96.00 points. She just won the Freestyle Ski Jump World Cup in The Usstembot on the front foot, and won the U-Shaped Track Skills World Cup gold medal on the back foot. Double crowns in one week, stunning the world.
How does beauty and talent merge in her? Let's use the upside-down montage to explore the growth path of this talented and beautiful girl:
In 2011, at the age of 8, Gu Ailing began learning freestyle skiing and joined the professional ski team in the Lake Tahoe region. There are many snow sports, freestyle skiing is quite difficult, skiers have to toss and turn in the air, perform various skills, she is in a healthy posture, jumping up and down, like a snow elf.
In 2012, 9-year-old Gu Ailing began competing in the National Ski Race. As early as 1989, China officially began training in free skiing aerial skills. Sports results are inseparable from physical anthropology, Chinese's specialty is dexterity, and it is easy to produce results in the project of "small water beauty". Freestyle skiing, which is known for its skills, is easy to become one of the breakthroughs for China's snow sports to win. Gu Ailing, a good skier, thrived in professional ski training in the United States and won the championship of the freestyle ski junior group.
On January 27, 2019, Gu Ailing won the gold medal in the 2018-2019 FIS World Cup Women's Slope Obstacle Course In Italy;

After Beijing and Zhangjiakou won the right to host the 2022 Winter Olympics in 2015, 12-year-old Gu Ailing hopes to one day represent The Chinese team in the Beijing Winter Olympics. She did not bite her teeth to train, how many nights, she was alone on the road for long-distance running physical training; how many spin jumps, she fell heavily on the snow, no one can succeed casually, because of love so insist, on August 16, 2019, Gu Ailing won the 2019-2020 freestyle ski slope obstacle course New Zealand Open championship, which is also the first championship she won after joining the Chinese nationality;

Unlike in the past, these times, she stood on the podium as a Chinese athlete. China's ice and snow sports ice is strong and snow is weak, China's freestyle skiing U-shaped track skills and slope obstacle skills are short boards, and Gu Ailing's joining has brought good news to the Chinese team and added weight to win.
On September 7, 2019, in the 2019-2020 FIS Freestyle Ski U-Shaped Track Skills World Cup Cardrona Station, Gu Ailing won the second place with 89 points;

In March 2021, the epidemic hit the world, and the underage Gu Ailing won two gold and one bronze in the freestyle ski world championships, creating a breakthrough for Chinese athletes in this event. People see flowers and applause, who knows she competed to win the championship with a broken right hand?

She is the triple gold king of the World Cup, the double gold king of the Winter Youth Olympic Games, and the first Chinese player to win a gold medal at X Games.
The Genting Ski Park in Chongli, Zhangjiakou, has built six tracks for freestyle skiing, including U-shaped track skills, slope obstacle courses, parallel giant slalom, obstacle chase, aerial skills, and snow skills, which will show the brilliant freestyle skiing scenery during the Beijing Winter Olympics. I stood in front of the track and looked out, and the pine trees of the ski resort were draped with beautiful tree hangings, like the rime of Jilin Province. The trees are covered with thick snow, resembling mushroom umbrellas, like white camellias. The sky is white, the training in the snow is more urgent, the ski slope is full of white brilliance, and the figures flying one after another. The U-shaped pool is like a white silver chain, and I fantasize that after a few months, Gu Ailing will be like a whirlwind running freely over the U-shaped pool, sometimes moving and rotating, sometimes leaping in the air, showing an unparalleled aerial ballet.
The snowflakes outside the plug are as big as a mat, the snowflakes dye my hair white, wet my eyelashes, I stand in the snow, listening to the sound of the snow hitting the bushes, it is really a long sky without birds, there are dragons in the snow. Skiing is not the strength of Chinese athletes, but the emergence of Gu Ailing shows that China's freestyle skiing is moving towards a world sports power. During the Beijing Winter Olympics, I will set my sights on Zhangjiakou Chongli, Gu Ailing will represent China in three competitions, and wish her another brilliant career at the Beijing Winter Olympics!
Beijing time on January 9 news, freestyle ski world cup American Mammoth Mountain station, Gu Ailing won the women's U-shaped field championship, including all 4 championships this season.
