At 09:30 a.m. on February 10, the figure skating men's single free skating competition at the Beijing Winter Olympics was played at the Capital Gymnasium.
"It's been 3 years since I challenged the 4A jump. If everyone says that only I can do this, it is my mission to complete it. "
As Yusuke Yusuke said, he challenged the 4A during the race, and like every challenge in the past 3 years, Yusei Yushin failed to complete his goal.
Take off, take off, spin! Although the 4A failed, the audience, who had already witnessed history, gave the overwhelming applause and cheers to their heroes.
What is 4A?
Technically, 4A, officially known as Axel All Around Jump. As one of the six jumps in figure skating, also known as the front outer point ice jump, it was first completed by Norway's Axel Ballson in 1882 and is also the most difficult of the six jumps in the men's singles. Although it is also called a four-way jump, the 4A has to jump half a lap more.
4A, which means "half jump around"
In terms of scores, the base score of 4A is 12.5 points, which is only 3 points higher than the four-way jump. If you fall and the completion of the action is not high, you will be deducted the completion point.
If it's just to get a medal, such an adventure seems a bit unworthy for a feathered string that can already easily control a variety of jumps around.
Yusei Yusei did not make such a choice, he chose to challenge history, just as Asada Masayoshi, who challenged the 3A at the Sochi Winter Olympics eight years ago. In this morning's competition, Yu Yu Yuki 4A fell and was deducted 5 points.
From the perspective of the audience, Yusei's challenge to the 4A is brave, as Yusheng himself said, "4A is a thorn, or the more you move forward, the more the high wall rushes to the front." It is to hit the high wall while feeling the menacing feeling of the high wall. However, when I finally came here, there was a slight protrusion on the wall, and I saw the possibility that it might be enough to step on my feet and climb my hands there. ”
On the road of human beings to challenge themselves and to the limit, they need more people who have the courage to break the boat like Yusheng Knot, is this not the embodiment of the true Olympic spirit? Such a curtain call is not the most perfect, but it is the most moving!
