Ski Into Love (Hush, the king is hibernating) [Requested]

Part 105

Chapter 105: Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh

On this ordinary day, no one expected that the deserted Yunding Ski Resort terrain park would witness a pinnacle battle of domestic snowboarding big air.

Today, Dai Duo seemed determined to challenge Shan Chong.

Whatever move Shan Chong performed, Dai Duo followed, aiming to outdo him:

When Shan Chong did a backside 1800, Dai Duo went for a backside 2160.

When Shan Chong attempted a frontside 1960, Dai Duo countered with a frontside 2160.

If Shan Chong landed steadily, Dai Duo pushed himself to overcome his habit of landing on the back edge, striving to land faster and more stably than his rival.

Wang Xin, standing on the jump, was reminded of the "rabbits" in marathons – paid pacers who lead the race. Below him, Shan Chong attempted a frontside 2160 but fell, slowly getting up. Immediately after, a white figure flew off the ramp – Dai Duo executed a frontside 2340, landing heavily but steadily.

It was a frontside cork 2340.

If he could pull off this move at next year's Winter Olympics, it could mark China's first medal breakthrough in snowboard big air.

Moved almost to tears, Wang Xin quickly shared the unedited, unfiltered video in their group chat, adding:

"Sharing a frontside 2340 without a butt-check. I'm tempted to call the Olympic Committee and ask if we can bring a rabbit to the big air competition [crying emoji]."

It was afternoon, and everyone was either lounging with their phones or resting by the slopes.

Wang Xin's video immediately stirred up the group chat.

Spectator 1: My god Dai? Awesome! Worth saying thrice!

Spectator 2: I remember watching him as a high schooler at Changbai Mountain. Now he's the pillar of China's snowboard big air. Never judge a book by its cover. So proud of little brother Dai Duo!

Spectator 3: Holy crap! That spin! Like a flying top!

Spectator 4: Our god Dai needs a rabbit? Hahaha!

Spectator 5: I'm more curious about who the rabbit is!

Spectator 5's comment piqued everyone's curiosity. They rewatched Wang Xin's video, and in a brief moment before Dai Duo's jump, they caught a glimpse of a black figure with a yellow snowboard.

As Dai Duo approached the ramp, this person had just landed, at a slightly off angle, bending forward and using one hand to steady themselves before sliding out!

They rolled 360 degrees, kicking up snow, then flipped their board and stood up in one smooth motion!

... Even their fall had style.

The ever-curious Spectator 5 was the first to recognize who it was.

Spectator 5: @Wang Xin This is no ordinary rabbit. An Angora Giant rabbit?

Spectator 6: Who?

Spectator 5: ...

Spectator 5: Shan Chong.

The group chat exploded.

Someone asked Wang Xin if he had found a sheepdog instead of a rabbit.

Another joked that using a Tibetan Mastiff as a sheepdog would result in eaten sheep.

Others questioned why Shan Chong was on the jump;

They asked Wang Xin if yesterday's interview had motivated Shan Chong to make a comeback;
