This young general has won excellent records one after another, and his strength is commendable, perhaps you think that he is as talented as Gu Ailing, a "genius" girl, but Su Yiming is not so, he can achieve such and such achievements, all rely on a wave of love + desperate momentum.
Little child star of him
Abandon the acting path and stick to the professional athletes
Su Yiming was born in 2004 in Jilin City, Jilin Province, his parents are snowboard enthusiasts, and when he was four years old, his parents took him to Jilin Songhua Lake Ski Resort to try his hand at skiing.
Su Yiming's father, Su Qun, said that at that time, the domestic snowboarding project was just starting out, and there were fewer snowboarders, and he took Su Yiming to the snow field, and there was no snow equipment suitable for him to wear.
Su Yiming wore adult snowboards and protective gear, followed her parents, and began to learn snowboarding.
Su Qun believes that Su Yiming is not a talented player, he feels that the role of talent is not great, what is important is that Su Yiming has an innate passion for skiing.
Su Yiming likes and enjoys the process of skiing very much, when he was in elementary school, he would free up three days a week to ski, when he was six or seven years old, Su Yiming's skiing level exceeded his parents, and at the age of 7, he signed the world's largest ski brand Burton Company to become a professional skater.
In 2014, when Su Yiming was 10 years old, when the film "Wise Tiger Mountain" directed by Director Xu Ke was looking for a small actor who could ski, Su Yiming just met the needs of the director group, so he selected Su Yiming to play a "small plug" who was proficient in skiing.
Su Yiming plays the small plug
Since then, he has also starred in film and television works with top stars such as Li Qin and Xiao Zhan, such as "His Highness the Wolf", "Lin Hai Snow Field", "Rock Boy" and other film and television works.
At that time, Su Yiming was already a little famous, if you insist on acting, the future will be bright, unexpectedly, the little age has a firm and strong heart, Su Yiming did not choose this seemingly brilliant acting path, but insisted on ski training.
On July 31, 2015, the day of China's successful bid to host the 2022 Winter Olympics, Su Yiming wrote this sentence on Weibo: "What determines our life is not our ability, but our choice." He talked to his parents formally and chose to go the path of a professional athlete.
Su Qun said: "I did not ask Su Yiming to insist on being a professional skier, if one day Su Yiming said that he did not like skiing and did not want to be an athlete, then he could give up at any time and come back to a good university, no matter what decision he made, we would support him as always." ”
Su Yiming's father, Su Qun, believes that as parents of professional athletes, their responsibility is to do a good job of logistical support for Su Yiming.
Since we want to take a career path, we will find a coach for him to train. Skiers face many dangers and injuries, and we should be fully prepared to avoid them as much as possible. ”
Perhaps the similarity between him and Gu Ailing is that behind them they all have a parent who has always supported them, encouraging and firmly optimistic about their children.
Join the National Ski Training Team
Ten years of grinding a sword, a blockbuster
Su Yiming's belief in insisting on skiing has never wavered, he resolutely and resolutely gave up his promising acting career, and he has long been accustomed to the lively showbiz circle, and began to "lonely journey" with boring snow projects.
In 2018, 14-year-old Su Yiming has been skating for 10 years, and in August of this year, he was selected for the "Cross-border Cross-sports Snowboarding National Training Team" created by the State General Administration of Sports and became a member of the national team.
In this training team, most of the athletes come from gymnastics, martial arts and other sports to "cross over", although there is no lack of skills, but there is no snow experience.
In the team, only Su Yiming started skiing from a young age, with rich experience and outstanding achievements on the snow, in the eyes of most people, he is the "big brother" in the snow field, and everyone calls Su Yiming "Ming Brother".
The team members described "Mingge" this way: "A long curved hair, but the eyes hidden under the long hair are like eagles, so that people will not forget that look at a glance."
In the team, he is not a person who shouts when he makes difficult moves, but people will inadvertently find a difficult action that he has never seen before many days later, from his circle of friends or from a video of his own training on Weibo. ”
More often, every new difficult action recorded by Su Yiming on the social platform is as dashing as the wind, but under the appearance of this ease of galloping in the air is his endless efforts and sweat.
Su Yiming once said on the social platform: "When I practice fiercely, I practice 4 boards a week, a new difficult action, I practice 6 hours a day, I have been repeating this action, it may take a summer to complete this action." ”
For me to pursue new difficulties, harder moves, fear is there. Because an action is not just a few seconds, or a few attempts, if you want to try an action, it actually takes a long time.
Fortunately, all the hard work has paid off. Su Yiming's arduous training was finally accepted.
On October 28, 2021, Su Yiming completed the snowboard inward turn 1980 degree grip during training at the Stubai Ski Park in Austria.
On January 22 this year, Guinness World Records announced that Su Yiming, a Young Chinese Snowboarder who had previously unlocked the 1980-degree grip on snowboarding, was certified.
There are only a handful of snowboarders in the world who can complete the 1980° turn, and Su Yiming is now joining the list as the youngest member of the group.
Just the action of "Aerial Rotation 1980", Su Yiming has practiced hundreds of times on the air cushion.

Just over a month before the opening of the Beijing Winter Olympics, Su Yiming once again brought surprising news.
At the Snowboard World Cup Steamboat Station on December 5, the 17-year-old won the championship with a high score of 155.25 with two difficult 1800 ° rotation movements, creating history again, and Su Yiming won the first World Cup title in his life.
With impressive results and quotas for the Beijing Winter Olympics, Su Yiming returned to China with high ambition to prepare for the final stages.
He shared his expectations for the 18-year-old in a Vlog last year, hoping to represent China in the Winter Olympics on his doorstep, hoping to complete the difficult actions of the plan, stand on the podium, and use the heavy Olympic medals as his adult gift.
Now that Su Yiming has done it, he has realized his original dream and made his dream a reality as he wished.
Su Yiming said: "My birthday is February 18, which happens to be during the Winter Olympics. It was as if it had been arranged, as if it had been predestined that I would stand here. "
Su Yiming's new era is about to begin
Su Yiming's coach Yasuhiro Sato once said that Su Yiming was very hard at the age of 14 and endured more training than his peers.
He trains a high-level athlete, usually after about 10 years of training, but Su Yiming became the world's top athlete in only three and a half years.
He's still a teenager, but he has an adult mind, and sometimes talking to him, I feel like I'm talking to a 35-year-old.
He was well educated, knew exactly what to do, and was very good at dealing with people. I know exactly how I should grow up.
During the Winter Olympics, his "youth and old age" became more and more obvious.
In the final on February 7, Su Yiming completed a 1800-degree rotation in the second jump, becoming the first player to complete this action.
Originally, Su Yiming could win the gold medal! In the end, the score was second.
Among them, the biggest controversy is the penalty of a Canadian referee.
In the final, Su Yiming's first jump, he gave 5 points, while the Swedish and French referees gave 9 points.
In the second jump, the Canadian referee gave Su Yiming 7 points, the American referee gave 10 points, and the Swedish and French referees gave 9 points.
In this game, some foreign athletes have also tried such a difficult move as a 1800-degree five-turn body, but they have not succeeded.
Therefore, there are many netizens who are upset for him, believing that the Canadian referee has "obviously pressed the score" on Su Yiming.
Moreover, Max Parrote, who won the championship, was precisely a Canadian player.
Not only are Chinese netizens angry, but many foreign netizens also say on social media that Su Yiming is the champion!
Many people were angry and questioned about this, but Su Yiming was very generous. Even in the face of such a misjudgment of gold and silver medals, he still calmly expressed that he was very satisfied with his performance, and it was already a very fortunate thing to be able to stand on the same podium as his childhood idol. I hope that everyone will not attack the referee again, and the referee's judgment has his own considerations.
Su Yiming has the maturity and stability of an adult in the face of great right and wrong, knows humility but in the final analysis, in addition to the labels of "young and famous child star" and "mature and stable athlete", he is still a playful, playful teenager.
At the age of 13, he would chase gu Ailing and ask, "Have you always lived and studied in the United States?" "There will also be out of curiosity and Gu Ailing to exchange skateboards, the two people fell together in the snow haha laugh;
In the offseason, he surfed in Hainan, picked coconuts, took the initiative to try to cook for his mother, walked into the kitchen, and turned into a chef with a knife in his hand;
When squeezing green orange juice to make seasoning, they will also curiously ask the locals whether they really eat small green oranges dry, and after tasting themselves, they are grinning with sour teeth;
Like many people, I will also clip the fragments of my life and post them on social platforms, carefully recording the bits and pieces around me.
Everything about Su Yiming made him look too much like a genius teenager. All the way to the front of others, has been breaking through the cognition of others.
Many people will say that Su Yiming must have been talented for such an achievement at a young age, but can all this really be attributed to the word talent?
To be sure, the word genius is probably the greatest insult to all strivers. Su Yiming has come this way, and it is more suitable to interpret his word persistence.
Fall down, get up, start again, repeat countless seemingly cool and boring actions again and again...
The young Su Yiming never said bitterness, the small body contained great energy, he surpassed his age, calmly, persistently, and stably evaluated his training after training, again and again.
He said it was "to beat yourself and be the strongest of yourself", it wasn't his own words, it was snowboarding that taught him.
Teenagers have success, the future can be expected!
Su Yiming has already opened an era for China at the Winter Olympics, and the era that belongs to Su Yiming has just arrived.
Let's look forward to the teenager's future path...
