The men's gold medal in the big jump on the afternoon of the 15th can be said to be Su Yiming's coming-of-age gift to himself three days later, and he himself has become the biggest surprise of Chinese snowboarding in this Winter Olympics. Many of the breakthroughs of the Chinese team are related to the teenager. His silver medal in slope sculpting skills is the first men's medal in the Winter Olympics in China and the first snow medal in China at the Beijing Winter Olympics, and his open-mindedness and demeanor have also impressed people after the referee's scoring caused some controversy. Moving to the big jump, he changed the color of the silver medal. This gold medal is not only the first Winter Olympic gold medal for Chinese snowboarding, but also a breakthrough in the history of the Chinese delegation's participation in the Winter Olympic Games. After he won the championship, the Chinese delegation set a new record for the number of gold medals and medals in a single Winter Olympic Games with 6 gold, 4 silver and 2 bronze, creating the best record in history since participating in the Winter Olympic Games.

Slope obstacle skills and big jumping platform share a quota, because there is no one in the Pyeongchang Chinese team, so this year's male player Su Yiming and female player Jung both staged the Chinese team's debut in these 4 sub-events. Jung "flipped" into the public eye in the big jumping competition, but in fact, she became the chinese team's first World Cup final athlete in the event in October 2021 in Chur, Switzerland. She also reached the final at the Beijing Winter Olympics and made history with a fifth-place finish.

The shining point of the Chinese players is not only on the field, in addition to Su Yiming's demeanor after the slope obstacle course event, the men's U-shaped venue qualification match, the young player Gao Hongbo only completed a slide with a simple action, but the audience did not know that he fractured his ankle during pre-competition training, and the smile after the slide was the happiness and satisfaction of his "did not miss the Olympic Games at the doorstep"; in the women's final, Qiu Leng "compared his hands to the heart" in front of the camera after the slide, and the palm of his hand was written "Lao Wu refueling", which was her support and encouragement to her teammate Wu Shaotong who stopped the qualifying match... ... The persistence and persistence of Liu Jiayu and Cai Xuetong, the two "elders of the Four Dynasties", also inspire more people to continue to move forward.

In addition to Chloe King, although the double defense of the impact cross-event failed, the Czech Republic's Esther Ledetzka still successfully defended the title in the women's parallel giant slalom event, Austria's Anna Gasser also defended the title in the women's big jump, and with Benjamin Carr winning the men's parallel giant slalom and Alessandro Hemmerer in the men's obstacle chase, the Austrian team won three gold medals this time.

Although it did not stand out, the two gold medals of the American team relying on the obstacle course this time still matched Austria's total of three golds. After experiencing the regret of grabbing the board and falling down to give the championship to the champion when taking the lead in the final of the Winter Olympics in Turin, the "five dynasties" Lindsay Jacobellis finally fulfilled her gold medal dream after 16 years, not only that, the 36-year-old also joined hands with 40-year-old Nick Baumgartner to defeat a group of "young boys" in the new event obstacle course chase mixed team competition to win the championship.

Maud wept for the volunteers' sincere "China Welcomes You" at the opening ceremony, and she and the volunteers then met and exchanged blessings through the Internet, writing a good story about "more unity" at the Beijing Winter Olympics.
