Daichi Oguri was 7th and Kosuda 10th in the Beijing Paralympic snowboarding class for men's banked slalom with severe foot disabilities.
Oguri "I slipped with gratitude"
Oguri commented on the second run, which shortened the time by more than one second from the first run. I'm glad, but I regret that I made a mistake on the way. "
Looking back on the second Paralympic Games, he said, "This Beijing tournament was a tournament that I prepared and challenged for four years, and at the time of today's second run, various people's faces came to my mind and I skated with gratitude. It was a fulfilling tournament, "he said with a smile.
Kosuda "Summer and winter competitions will continue"
After finishing the race, 10th place Kosuda recalled, "I couldn't finish the second run because I was a little too strong, but I think I've put out my current strength."
Based on the fact that Kosuda participated in the Tokyo Paralympic Games last summer on land, he said, "We will continue to compete in the summer and winter. I think it's a good idea. "
