Veteran Winter Olympic spectators may be impressed
The story of "two-time Winter Olympic runners-up finally realized their dream of gold medal".
And some other friends who love the Summer Olympics are confused:
This boy,
Didn't you just finish skateboarding at the Tokyo Olympics last year?
Hirano began practicing skiing and skateboarding at the same time when he was four years old.
After skateboarding became a tokyo Olympic event,
He has always seen it as a dream to compete in the 2020 Tokyo Olympics.
Although in the Preliminary Round of the Men's Skateboarding Park Competition for the Tokyo Olympics,
Hirano was only ranked 14th,
Missed the final,
But then he won the gold medal at the Beijing Winter Olympics.
It's also a consummation!

Enter the national training team through cross-border cross-item selection.
Athletics' unique explosiveness,
speed and coordination,
The demand for the same snowmobile "just matches".
China's ice and snow projects have a thin foundation,
Weak foundation, small talent reserve,
Cross-border cross-item selection
Blank areas can be filled in short cycles.
And from a familiar sport,
Go to another unfamiliar, difficult,
The movement of "no ancients before",
For athletes,
Challenge and break through the meaning of self,
Far more important than winning or losing.
Crossover doesn't stop there
Among the many players competing in the Summer Olympic and Winter Olympics,
Athletes who have won medals at both the Summer Olympics and the Winter Olympics
There are only five people in the history of the Olympic Games,

He retired from his DJ position,

"Halfway out of the house",
The opening ceremony of the Beijing Winter Olympics is the "Gold Medal Award Ceremony".
His participation in itself makes history.
Despite these cross-discipline athletes
from different countries and regions,
But they all have the same identity —
Practitioners of the Olympic spirit.
They use themselves to interpret the most simple spirit of competitive sports:
For the love of persistence,
Sprint for dreams,
Generation after generation of athletes took to the stage,
Challenge gravity, push the limits, challenge yourself...
We will cheer for the championship,
It will also give applause to those players who continue to break through themselves.
On the road to faster, higher and stronger,
We will be more united because of the Olympic Movement.
"Before the sun melts the wax on our wings,
See how high we can fly. ”
