Team China's achievements on the snow at Beijing 2022
Ski Jumping
Due to its late start in the sport, China had only competed in ski jumping during two previous Winter Olympics.
At the Beijing Winter Olympics, Chinese athletes set a record in the number of ski jumping events participated. This was also the first time for China to have both male and female athletes participating in the Games at the same time.
"Most of us picked up ski jumping less than four years ago. Standing on the Olympic hill is an honor for each of us," said Song Qiwu, who trained for the 110m hurdles before December 2018.
Dong Bing of China, the 31st in the first round of women's normal hill individual, registered the best performance among Chinese ski jumpers at Beijing 2022, but failed to step into the final round that featured top 30.
"I was so close to the final. I tried my best, but I still need to learn from world top ski jumpers and improve myself in the future," Dong said.
The 17-year-old Peng Qingyue is the youngest Chinese ski jumper at Beijing 2022 and finished 38th in women's normal hill individual.
"The Beijing Winter Olympics is a start for me, and I will strive for the next Olympics and aim to fly further," Peng said.
