The Coolest Games-Freestyle Skiing

冬奧小百科——自由式滑雪

Welcome back to the Coolest Games, a series where we detail a specific Winter Olympics sport. In today’s episode we’re having a look at Freestyle Skiing【自由式滑雪】. 

歡迎回到冬奧小百科。在這個系列中，每次我們將詳細介紹一項特定的冬奧項目。在今天的節(jié)目中，我們將介紹自由式滑雪。

Freestyle skiing debuted as a demonstration sport at the 1988 Calgary Games, and then it was added to the Winter Olympic program in 1992, and new events have been introduced to the competition format over the years. They include aerials【空中技巧】, moguls【雪上技巧】, ski cross【障礙追逐】, halfpipe【U型場地技巧】, slopestyle【坡面障礙技巧】, and big air【大跳臺】.

在1988 年卡爾加里奧運會上，自由式滑雪作為表演項目首次亮相，后于1992年被納入到冬奧會項目中，并且在接下來的幾年中在比賽形式中引入了新的項目。它們包括空中技巧，雪上技巧，障礙追逐，U型場地技巧，坡面障礙技巧，和大跳臺。

The aerials events, halfpipe, slope-style and moguls are all 'judged' events, which means the athletes receive a score from a group of judges based on the skill of their tricks and form they display on each of their runs in the competition. In the case of big air, competitors are also scored on the height and distance of their jumps. 

空中技巧，U型場地技巧，坡面障礙技巧和雪上技巧都是"評判"項目，這意味著裁判會根據(jù)每次比賽中選手展示的技巧和形式給選手評分。在大跳臺項目中，參賽者也會根據(jù)跳躍的高度和距離被予以評分。

Ski-cross is different, unlike the other freestyle skiing events, ski-cross is a timed event, so there are no judges …The first athlete to cross the finish line wins! 

障礙追逐項目則有所不同。相比起其他自由式滑雪比賽，障礙追逐是計時比賽，所以沒有評委......第一個沖過終點線的運動員就獲勝啦！

Skiing has become increasingly popular among young Chinese people, but do you know that skiing is originated from China? The very first skis date back to 8,000 years BC and were found in Altay in Northern Xinjiang. They were made of 2-metre-long pieces of wood and were covered in horsehair. Nowadays, Altay has become an ideal destination for more and more professional skiers. 

滑雪在中國年輕人中越來越受歡迎，但你知道滑雪其實起源于中國嗎？最早的滑雪板可以追溯到公元前8000年，發(fā)現(xiàn)于新疆北部的阿勒泰。它們由2米長的木頭制成，上面覆蓋著馬毛。如今，阿勒泰已成為越來越多專業(yè)滑雪者的理想目的地。

One of the the rising stars competing at the Beijing Winter Games is Eileen Gu. She competes in all three free ski events: Slopestyle, Half Pipe, and Big Air. 

本屆北京冬奧會中有一位令人矚目的新星，叫做谷愛凌。她參加了所有三項自由式滑雪比賽：坡面障礙技巧，U型場地技巧和大跳臺。

Since she announced in 2019 that she would compete for China, Eileen Gu has met with a lot of success. Her first big win was at the Winter Games in New Zealand. She also picked up a pair of gold medals at the 2020 Youth Olympic Games in Lausanne in Big Air and Half Pipe, as well as a bronze in slopestyle.

自從她在2019年宣布將代表中國參賽以來，谷愛凌取得了很大的成功。她第一次在新西蘭的冬奧會上大放異彩。在2020年洛桑青年奧運會上，她還獲得了大跳臺和U型場地技巧的兩枚金牌，以及坡面障礙技巧銅牌。

She then went on to win three medals at the X Games in 2021, gold medals for halfpipe and slopestyle, and a bronze medal in Big Air. Eileen is now fully focused on and ready for the Winter Games in Beijing where she hopes to inspire a whole new generation of Chinese skiers. 

然后，她繼續(xù)在2021年的世界極限運動會上贏得三枚獎牌，分別是U型場地技巧和坡面障礙技巧的金牌以及大跳臺的銅牌。谷愛凌目前正全力備戰(zhàn)北京冬奧會，她希望在冬奧的賽場上激勵新一代的中國滑雪運動員。

The Beijing 2022 freestyle skiing events will take place at two venues. The Genting Snow Park, located in the east of Chongli County of Zhangjiakou, will host most of the events, while Shougang Park will host the big air and aerials competitions.

北京2022年自由式滑雪比賽將在云頂雪地公園和首鋼公園兩個場地舉行。位于張家口崇禮縣東部的云頂雪地公園將舉辦大部分活動，而首鋼公園將舉辦大跳臺和空中技巧比賽。

For me, the most unique venue of the Beijing 2022 is Shougang. The park was built at a former steel mill, and are set against the backdrop of four industrial cooling towers. The design is derived from the traditional flying Apsaras in Dunhuang frescoes in China. As the world's first permanent venue for Big Air, it will stage the freestyle skiing and snowboard Big Air competitions at the Games. After the Winter Olympics, Big Air Shougang will be used for various sports competitions and training, as well as cultural and civic events.

對我來說，北京2022冬奧會最獨特的會場是首鋼。該公園的前身是一家鋼鐵廠，以四座工業(yè)冷卻塔為背景。該設(shè)計源自中國敦煌壁畫中傳統(tǒng)的飛天神女。作為世界上第一個大跳臺的永久場地，本屆奧運會上自由式滑雪和單板滑雪大跳臺比賽將在此舉行。冬奧會結(jié)束后，首鋼大跳臺將作為各種體育比賽和訓練，以及文化和市民活動的場地。

There are 13 events in freestyle skiing at Beijing 2022, including two new events: men’s and women’s freestyle skiing Big Air and mixed team freestyle skiing aerials【自由式滑雪空中技巧混合團體賽】.

北京2022冬奧會自由式滑雪項目共有13項，包括兩項新項目：男子和女子自由式滑雪大跳臺和自由式滑雪空中技巧混合團體賽。

The final runs of Men’s and Women’s Free ski Big Air will be taking place on Feb 8th and 9th, while the mixed team freestyle skiing aerials finals will be held on Feb 10th.

男子和女子自由滑雪大跳臺的決賽將于2月8日和9日舉行，而自由式滑雪空中技巧混合團體決賽將于2月10日舉行。
