The snow is white, the heavens and the earth are frost, and the majestic mountains are all smooth roads. On February 11, the "Snow Dragon" of the National Bobsleigh Center in the Yanqing Division of the Beijing 2022 Winter Olympics waited for another memorable historical moment of China's steel frame bobsleigh:
First round: 1 minute 00 seconds 43
Round 2: 1:00.65
Round 3: 1 minute 00 seconds 54
Round 4: 1 minute 00 seconds 15
This is the total report card handed over by Yan Wengang at the National Bobsleigh Bobsleigh Center, who won the bronze medal in the men's steel frame snowmobile competition at the Beijing Winter Olympics on behalf of the Chinese team, which is also the first Olympic medal in the history of the Chinese steel frame snow team; and Yin Zheng, another yin in the "Twin Stars", also achieved the fifth place, and the two of them both created the best record in the history of the Winter Olympics of the Chinese steel frame snow team.
"Gemini Star" creates a new history of "Snow Dragon" China's speed makes the world marvel!
In 2017, yin Zheng was still a student at Beijing Sports University, specializing in sprinting. In school, the ordinary student life of "class-training" is carried out step by step.
The state carries out the selection of "cross-border and cross-project" to reserve talents for winter projects. The times gave Yin Zheng this opportunity, he did not hesitate to seize it, and achieved his own leap.
Yin Zheng, who has good explosive power, became a member of the Chinese steel frame snow team from a student. "The Winter Olympics gave us the opportunity to enter the national team through cross-border cross-disciplines and go to a higher platform." With his own advantages and hard training, Yin Zheng began to grow rapidly.
In Yin Zheng's heart, it was the Beijing Winter Olympics that gave him the opportunity to change his life, and he also wanted to change the history of China's steel frame snowmobile through his own efforts. My goal was to stand on the podium and play the national anthem. ”
Like Yin Zheng, Yan Wengang is also a beneficiary of "cross-border cross-project". In 2015, the China Steel Frame Snow Racing Team was established, and he was selected to practice long jump, a person, a pair of steel frame snowmobiles, an all-ice track, a new journey.
Training outside Calgary, Canada, Yan Wengang stood on the steel frame snowmobile track for the first time. He was pushed down by the coach. "Although the speed of the first skate was only forty or fifty miles, it was still very nervous, and the moment I reached the finish line, I felt very happy." In fear and excitement, Yan Wengang continued to expand his boundaries as far as possible.
In those days, Yan Wengang gritted his teeth and survived, "The movement is not familiar, the whole body is bruised, and the next day I have to continue." In the winter, the swelling and bruises can't go down. ”
But no matter how difficult it was, Yan Wengang did not want to give up. Those who can't defeat you will eventually make you stronger. He repeatedly told himself: To invest, "this feeling of high-speed sliding is very enjoyable, and if you don't enjoy it, you will fall badly." Therefore, it is necessary to be dedicated and very focused. ”
The boots created by ANTA have become the "booster" of the historic breakthrough of China's steel frame snowmobile!
At the Beijing Winter Olympics, ANTA, which has cooperated with the Chinese Olympic Committee for eight consecutive years, has built sports equipment for 12 Chinese teams in 15 sub-events. It is the sports brand that supports the most equipment for the Chinese national team. A total of 28 Chinese national teams have been built to create competition equipment, which is also the largest among all brands.
As 1/12 of the participating teams, the Chinese Steel Frame Snow Racing Team wore Anta battle uniforms and spelled out this historical moment. Accompanying, witnessing and assisting is an ANTA's mission to China's steel frame snowmobile at the Beijing Winter Olympics.
As the most exciting sport in the world, athletes of steel frame snowmobiles set off, grab the armrest and start explosively, push the steel frame along the ice rail to obtain maximum initial speed, and slide straight ahead.
It is worth mentioning that the shoes worn by Yan Wengang and Yin Zheng are the first winter Olympic steel frame snowshoe shoes pioneered by ANTA using intelligent simulation design.
The boots use a bionic hydrodynamic design of the diversion line to reduce the wall friction by 53.5%, while the sole special-shaped curved carbon plate technology material makes the rebound force increase by 2%.
After the athlete track measurement: in the starting stage, the athletic performance achieved by wearing ANTA steel frame snowmobile shoes was significantly improved compared with the performance achieved by wearing Adidas shoes: the maximum improvement was 0.054 seconds, and the average increase was 0.023 seconds.
Anta's original deflector plate and airfoil drag reduction design reduces the wind resistance of the overall shoe body of the steel frame snowmobile by 10%, so that when they set off to step into the steel frame snowmobile, they can reduce the speed loss of the athletes at the moment, obtain greater explosive power, and inject the most powerful support for the indomitable running.
From Geng Wenqiang's thirteenth place at the Pyeongchang Winter Olympics to the third place on the podium now, the Chinese Steel Frame Snow Team once again rewritten history in one of the most exciting events of the Winter Olympics, allowing "China Red" to fly to the world. The road between Yan Wengang and Yin Zheng is still very long, and Beijing is far from the end, but a new starting point.
