Momoka Muraoka took the lead in the first half of the Super-G Giant Slalom in the Beijing Paralympic Games, the third event of the tournament, but suffered from the snow quality of the second half of the spinning course, which was her first time to skate on the 3rd. It was only 0 seconds 77 to reach the consecutive gold medals and was in second place.

She crouched on her best friend's shoulders after the race.

"Super combined" that requires comprehensive strength

Muraoka who won the downhill, Super-G and the second event called "high-speed system".


The third event of this tournament, the Super Combined on the 7th, was an event that required comprehensive strength as a skier competing in the total time of high-speed Super-G and technical rotation.

In the morning Super-G, he got on the speed from the beginning and made a high-speed and accurate turn, and after the finish, the guts pose popped out. Rival, Germany's Analena Forster, was a big difference of 6:07.



The afternoon rotation that took place on the slopes was an event that Muraoka was not good at, while Forster was good at rotation and won the gold medal in the previous tournament.

“I couldn't deal with it”

Muraoka jumped out of the start gate saying "let's attack" instead of going to protect the lead safely, but struggled with "the snow quality was different and I could not cope" on the course that I skated for the first time.


The advantage gradually disappeared.

He took the lead in the first half and suffered from rough snow because the run order in the second half was the last of the six remaining in the class.

The third gold medal in this tournament, which was just around the corner, slipped through Muraoka's hand with a difference of only 0.77.



After the race, Muraoka regretted, "Unlike the high-speed course, the hardness of the burn and the quality of the snow made him unable to adjust his skis."



He praised his rivals, saying, "The responsiveness and vitality of Forster, who rewound even though he had a considerable time difference," he praised his rivals. I hugged Ammi, crouched on my shoulder, and wiped my eyes many times with my hands.



Alpine skiing girls will not have any competition for the next three days, and Muraoka said, "I'm struggling with such a hard schedule, so I'd like to take a good rest and regain my physical condition and feelings." Then, on the 11th, we will face the giant slalom that won the gold medal in the previous competition.
