Chapter 251 Chapter 251
Compared with the previous competitions, the number of applicants for the Winter Olympics season is not very large, because the players need to comprehensively consider whether participating in this competition will be good or bad for the next competition.
Many players have old injuries, and one big competition a month like Su Fu is a heavy burden for them, so they only participate in one sub-station competition based on comprehensive choices.
For example, this is the case for Jessica from Country M. She suffered a recurrence of an old injury during off-season training and gave up the SA race after comprehensive considerations, which also meant that she would give up the GPF Finals.
When Su Fu came to country M, she knew that Jessica would not join SA, and she felt a little regretful from then on.
"Jessica said this might be her last season." Claire sat with Soph and chatted in a low voice: "But I think she can skate for at least two more seasons."
"She stopped skating?" Su Fu was a little surprised and asked: "Isn't Jessica only 21 years old?"
Claire shrugged helplessly and gestured: "After the age of twenty, you are the older women's singles. Your Li has already retired, and Jessica and Li are actually about the same age."
Jessica is one year younger than Li Wenxia and about the same age as Yang Jie, but her months are not very good and she has already passed the 21-year-old threshold.
In women's figure skating, those who are over twenty years old must be included in the quasi-older women's singles. After all, they are indeed several years older than the younger women's singles who are fifteen or sixteen years old.
The competition for women's singles figure skating in country m is not as fierce as that in Mauritius, but the ice hockey association of country m will not put all its resources into single women over twenty years old.
Su Fu twirled her fingers and said, "I think Jessica can skate for another two years."
"She said she had had enough of isu and would become a professional figure skater after she retires." Claire smiled and said: "Judging from Jessica's popularity, she does have a market in North America. Ice performance brand
I started doing it gradually.”
"Professional figure skater? Actually, he's pretty good." Su Fu nodded and agreed.
For example, professional figure skaters do not need to arrange their programs according to the requirements of isu. In order to obtain higher scores, they can arrange their own jumps and footwork, and can express the repertoire more deeply.
Claire glanced at the black-haired girl and said: "Actually, you can become a professional figure skater after you retire. You are so popular in every ice performance now, so it will definitely be very suitable for you to become a professional figure skater."
"I haven't thought about this yet." Su Fu waved her hand and added: "But I will definitely stay on the ice and skate until I can no longer skate."
Claire looked at the ISU official who was giving a speech in front of her and began to open the gift given to her by Su Fu. After opening it, she saw that it was a two-color ice skate with a blue top and a silver bottom, which shimmered under the refraction of the sun.
"Wow! So beautiful!" Claire couldn't put it down and touched the skate: "Is it made of high-fiber material?"
"High fiber and aluminum alloy material." Su Fu gestured twice and said, "New material."
The technology of ice skates has also been updated crazily in recent years. High-fiber materials are suitable for jumping, but they are easy to break.
The price-performance ratio was too low for players, so researchers tried to add tougher metal inside to reduce the breakage rate of the skates.
The Chinese national team is very willing to spend on skates, and as the economy gets better and better, they purchase large quantities of skates every quarter, making them the biggest partner of skate manufacturers.
Therefore, the skates made of the new material were sent to the Chinese national team for testing, and the players were allowed to put forward suggestions for modifications after trying them.
The skates in Sufu's hands now are the latest skates after testing, specially prepared for female singles figure skaters, customized according to height and weight.
"I remember your new season's Kosten is blue, which should be the same color as the skate." Su Fu took out the skate and flicked the blade: "It's not sharpened. Ask your sharpener to sharpen it."
It will be available later.”
"Thank you!" Claire nodded happily while holding the skates.
"Skate well and let's go to Milan together." Su Fu thought for a while and said, "Don't retire earlier than me. After all, you were promoted to the group later than me."
Claire's eyes widened in surprise: "You
Want to skate to Milan?”
She didn't expect that Su Fu would actually skate to the Milan Winter Olympics. After all, she was almost 24 years old at that time and was a truly older women's singles player.
There will be a large number of junior women's singles in the next Winter Olympics cycle, and they will be women's singles trained through the latest training methods. For example, the 13- and 4-year-old children in their team happen to be in the Milan Winter Olympics.
Main player.
Claire is one year younger than Sovereign. After the training when she was first promoted to the group, her technical level has been upgraded to the first echelon.
It stands to reason that she should be the most popular player in Country M now, but the Ice Hockey Association of Country M does not focus on training Claire. Instead, it follows the example of Country M and focuses on the single women who have just been promoted to the group.
The young women's singles who have undergone scientific and systematic training will be released for three weeks much earlier than their batch, and their injuries will be much less than theirs.
But Claire looked at Su Fu's expression and knew that the other party was not joking, but was really going to skate to Milan.
The blond girl rubbed her brows helplessly: "Su, I've been so involved by you that I have nothing to say..."
"A roll?" Su Fu raised her eyebrows and asked.
Yi Sitong happened to come over and agreed: "It's rolled, but it's very enjoyable."
Just roll it up, it will make the isu guys look pale and scream!
In the drawing after signing in, Su Fu was lucky enough to be selected as the last one to appear in the last group.
The other contestants also breathed a sigh of relief. After all, after watching Su Fu's "Virus", the audience probably didn't have much interest in watching their show.
Even ice fans started talking about it, saying that little Su Fu's face finally looked less unnatural.
Speaking of which, Su Fu's face is so white, why can't she get any advantage in the lottery and just draw herself into a black face?
When the men's singles draw comes, everyone knows who Su Fu's hand infection has been transmitted to...
[Little Xingxing got the first place in the first group? Why is her face so dark? 】
[I think it’s not Tu Xin or Su Fu who has a bad face, but Coach Huang’s face is bad. You forgot that Xiao Mumu’s draw is also bad. 】
What the ice fans said is not wrong. In the youth competition, Xiao Zimu will be the first to play every time he is drawn.
[Perhaps Coach Huang spent all his luck meeting three apprentices, which is why he is so dark.]
In the op the next day, when it was Su Fu's turn to appear, the fast-paced music instantly infected the whole audience, and everyone stopped and looked over.
When the new season's repertoire first came out, some 'experts' said that Su Fu's selection of songs was a failure. Music with too strong a sense of rhythm is not suitable for figure skating. If the steps are not accurate, it will make people feel confused.
At that time, the entire track will not only be unwatchable, but it will also make Su Fu fall off the altar.
However, Sufu's performance at the National Championships made the so-called experts swollen in the face, and she was just a hair away from breaking the record.
Many people also analyzed "Virus" and found that the footwork in the short program was the most exciting, and not a single movement was redundant.
Some athletes tried to slide their steps to the music, but they couldn't follow the rhythm at all. They either looked extremely messy, or they remembered the movements of their feet but forgot the movements of their hands.
There are also three amazing jumps in it. They are all squeezed into the second half, but they don't make people feel messy or chasing.
Su Fu has almost no waiting time for taking off. The triple jump is a matter of seconds for her, so she can take off directly after the footwork without making people feel panic.
Others are not as good at jumping as Su Fu, so when they jump to the music of "Virus", they always feel that something is not right, but after jumping twice, they probably understand where their differences are.
There was a live broadcast of SA’s OP. Ice fans jumped over the wall to watch it and left messages:
【This song will become Su Fu’s classic! It’s so sassy!】
[I have never seen a better short program than Su Fu, this short program will become a god!]
[I really want to watch this show live, but I heard that I can’t feel its shock through the screen. 】
Su Fu's participation in the SA competition brought astonishing attention, let alone the women's singles main event.
Tickets were sold out instantly, and even the OP tickets were sold out.
The National Ice Hockey Association of M was so happy that it beamed with joy. When meeting the media, they even thanked Su Fu for choosing the SA branch.
After Huang Tian saw the interview, he snorted: "I hope I can use the same attitude when giving scores."
In this SA competition, there are three players from Country M. In addition to Claire, there are also two newly promoted young players, Eleanor and Isabelle.
Eleanor is a Mauritian with M nationality. Her grandfather was once a famous male figure skater in Mauritius. She is extremely talented and was a powerful skater competing for the gold medal with Mauritian Arahiva at the World Youth Championships.
Isabelle is equally good. She has Viking ancestry and is very warlike. Like Claire, she has blond hair, but she always likes to braid her hair.
This time the game will be held in ISU's back garden, and ice fans don't have to guess who will be favored by the scores.
There are a total of eleven players participating in the SA station. Except for Su Fu, Yi Sitong and three players from country M, ice fans are not concerned about the strength of other players.
After the women's singles op ended, it was the men's singles op. Huang Tian stayed directly by the ice rink to train with Tu Xin.
Su Fu didn't leave either. She took off her skates, cleaned them up, put them in a shoe box and packed them into a small suitcase.
Tu Xin's short program was "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", and Xu Ye helped change the music, which added a lot of personal touches.
Su Fu listened and watched the OP, holding her chin: "Little Tu Xin's song still needs to be changed, I think his jumping is not very good."
In the National Championships, Tu Xin's short program was not very satisfactory. His p-score could not be improved and his degree of completion was not very high either.
Maybe Tu Xin couldn't feel the meaning that the music wanted to express, so there were still many problems in the performance.
Su Fu, who was super fast, made changes as soon as she was told. She turned on her phone and directly contacted Xu Ye and sent a bunch of her suggestions for revisions.
Huang Tian glanced at Su Fu's cell phone and muttered: "Wouldn't it be bad for you to trouble others at this time?"
His tone was a bit sour, especially as if he was watching his own cabbage being delivered to his door.
"It's okay." Su Fu finished typing the last word and sent it out: "Good buddies are the ones who cause trouble to each other."
Huang Tian glanced at the girl and said, "What if he doesn't treat you as a buddy?"
Chapter completed!
