American art jumpers screw themselves to premiere gold – Olympics

Mistakes cost China Olympic gold

After three jumps she stood USA with a twelve-point lead as the first Olympic champion. Ashley Caldwell, Christopher Lillis and Justin Schoenefeld delivered a flawless performance, while Zongyang Jia of gold favorites China failed. The Chinese had won the two World Cups this year and planned to win the gold medal. They were accordingly dismayed that the daring acrobatics over a steep snow ramp only went to silver. Up to 14 meters high, the acrobats whirled through the air, showing twists, turns, sliding tackles and perfect landings.

World Cup premiere 2019

the Mixed-Competition was introduced in the winter of 2014/15, the WM-Premiere took place in 2019. In Beijing, medals were awarded for the first time at the Olympics.

Emma Weiß is hoping for an individual start

A German team was not there. Emma Weiß is the only German artistic ski jumper in the aerials in Beijing. Whether she can start is still uncertain. The 22-year-old had tested positive for Corona when she entered the country.

Lucky in disguise: The CT value was not over 35 in two other tests in the Olympic village, so the freestyler at least for training and competition. The rest takes place alone in the room. The qualification in the discipline aerials takes place on February 13th.
