Chinese skier Gu Ailing smashed the world’s first Women’s Freeski double-cork 1440 on Sunday during a training session in Stubai, Austria. This was shown by a video filmed by Su Yiming, a 17-year-old Chinese snowboarder who pulled off the world’s first Backslide 1980 Indy Crail on October 28 at the same place. And on October 27, Yang Wenlong, a Chinese snowboarder training in Saas-Fee, Switzerland, completed an ultra difficult Backside quad 1980. Chinese athletes are showing their competitiveness ahead of the Beijing 2022 Olympic Winter Games.
