Although the United States is still shrouded in the haze of the new crown epidemic, the annual XGames broke through the dangers and arrived in Aspen from January 29th to 31st. Although Liu Jiayu and Cai Xuetong missed the competition, Gu Ailing will usher in the debut of this top-level event. She has the opportunity to hit the gold medal in the three events invited by X Games; Sean White will return after the Pingchang Winter Olympics The single-board competition will compete with James and Totsuka Yuto. This is a strong dialogue between the three generations of kings in different periods of the project.
Gu Ailing X Games made his debut to hit the three championships
Since her naturalization, Gu Ailing has not only continued her strength in freestyle skiing, but also made more frequent appearances in U-shaped venues and jump platforms. , She has also achieved good results with many things, and she has more flowers.
In the Youth Olympic Games in January 2020, Gu Ailing participated in the above 3 sub-sports and won 2 gold and 1 silver. Gu Ailing both won the championship in the U-shaped field and the big diving platform. She lost to the Estonian talented girl Hildaru and finished second.
This year, Gu Ailing was invited to participate in the XGames competition for the first time. This is the world's largest stage for snowboard and snowboard freestyle skiing and is known as the "Oscar" in the skiing industry. As usual, the organizing committee invites the best ranked commercial competitions, or the champions of the Winter Olympics and World Championships every year. Prior to this, Liu Jiayu and Cai Xuetong were regular visitors of XGames, but this year they were both absent from the epidemic, and Gu Ailing became China's only hope.
On the first day of the competition, Gu Ailing will compete in the big platform and the U-shaped field one after another. This is the single event she won in the Winter Youth Olympic Games last year. In the big jumping platform, Gu Ailing’s main opponents include the 2018 champion Hoflin and the 2019 champion Gremo. These two are also the champions and runners-up in the PyeongChang Winter Olympics to overcome obstacles, and their overall strength is strong.
U-shaped venue project, the PyeongChang Winter Olympics gold medal winner Charpe is the biggest stumbling block on Gu Ailing Chongjin Road.At the age of 28, she also won the championship of X Games in 2016 and 2019, and won the bronze medal in 2018.
Slope obstacle skill project, Gu Ailing’s number one enemy is Hildaru. In the Youth Olympic Games, Gu Ailing lost to his opponent.
Hildaru and Gu Ailing are the same players. Gu Ailing is one year younger than his opponent, who was born on February 17, 2002. Hildaru’s record in X Games is very terrifying. She has won all three championships in three small events. She has reached the top 5 times in slope obstacle skills. Among the 16 world championships she has won, the slope obstacle Skills occupies 11. From this point of view, it is this project that Hildaru poses the greatest threat to Gu Ailing.
Of course, everyone invited by XGames is a top player with super strength. The master recruits the brave to win. Gu Ailing, who participated for the first time, should have no psychological burden. With a learning mentality, she will challenge the masters of all walks of life, striving to be on the podium in all three individual events, and even achieve better results.
Snowboarding legends interpret the return of the king
When the Aspen Organizing Committee announced the XGames entry list for the first time, I believe all snowboard fans will vote incredible or surprised Look, yes, the two legends of Sean White and Chloe King have returned to the game. To be precise, it should be the return of the legend of Sean White!
At the PyeongChang Winter Olympics men's U-shaped snowboarding venue in February 2018, Japanese genius Ayumi Hirano completed an ultra-highly difficult continuous back-foot turn of 1440 degrees, and a high score of 95.25 is quite competitive. This result is definitely a hot gold medal in the previous Winter Olympics.
However, after Hirano Ayumi, Sean White completed two consecutive back-foot turns of 1440 degrees in the second round with high quality, and the final score was fixed at 97.75 points. The field instantly boiled, "flying." "Tomato" completed an incredible reversal in Pyeongchang, and Sean White became the first American man to win the Triple Crown in the Winter Olympics.
After the Pyeongchang Winter Olympics, Sean White faded out of the winter arena, but did not retire. He moved to summer events. He has always loved skateboarding and began to try to participate in the Tokyo Olympics. Unfortunately, Sean White's skateboarding performance is not ideal, and the dream of participating in the Summer Olympics may be lost.
Participated in four Winter Olympics and won the championship three times. Some people say that Sean White is old. In fact, he is only 34 years old this year and he is fully capable of fighting again. In this competition, 34-year-old Sean White, 26-year-old Scottie-James, and 19-year-old Totsuka Yuto will compete on the same field. This is a contest between the three generations of single-board generations born in the 80s, 90s and 00s. No matter who wins, it is destined to be a classic in history.
Snowboarding women's king Chloe King returned to school last season to study and recharge. This season she returned. Three days ago, she defeated two Japanese players Mitsuki Ono at the International Snow Federation World Cup in Switzerland. He Tomita (Sena Tomita) won the championship and returned with a championship.
It is a bit regretful that the two Chinese masters Liu Jiayu and Cai Xuetong were unable to compete for some reason, which will reduce the excitement of the game to a certain extent, and also make Chloe King lose two major enemies. Judging from the list, King’s main opponents are Spanish veteran Castellet and compatriot teenager Mastro.
