Coach Su Yiming implores the criticism of the referee to be stopped

In response to the scoring controversy in the final of the men's steeplechase skills in snowboarding at the Beijing Winter Olympics, Su Yiming coach Yasuhiro Sato said through an open letter that he and Su Yiming understood the difficulty of real-time scoring, thanked all referees, and implored the public to end criticism.

Sato's open letter said he realized after the final that there might be a problem with scoring. "To be honest I'm sorry, but I quickly realized that this was also part of the game process, so I respected the result of the penalty."

"Moreover, I think the result of this time may be the motivation for Su Yiming to train harder in the future." Most importantly, our goal is su Yiming to do our best to show the best of ourselves, and we have done it, so we are very satisfied."

The veteran snowboard instructor said that after the award ceremony, he saw many professionals and enthusiasts on social media saying that the score of the competition was strange, so he and Su Yiming called the referee of the competition, Shumatić.

"[The content of the call] is mainly to say that although we see some heated discussion on social media, we don't care about it at all, and it's sometimes really difficult to score this job. I told the chief referee, Mr. Shumatić, that I was very grateful to all the referees of the day, and Su Yiming directly expressed the same meaning to him. Mr. Shumatić is also very grateful to us."

"The culture of skiing is created by everyone together, and it is a family that is active in this circle. People sometimes make mistakes, and that's a matter of course, that's all. I kindly ask you to put an end to all criticism of the judges in the men's slope steeplechase finals of this snowboarding. And please extend your congratulations to the gold medalist Max Parrott." Yasuhiro Sato wrote in the letter.
