I think figure skating is a combination of skating and dancing, which is both athletic and artistic. In order to be successful, all competitive events must be practiced from an early age, 365 days a year, without any private time, and some miscellaneous ideas must be abandoned. I have to take part in all kinds of competitions, so my psychological quality must be super strong so that I won't make mistakes in major competitions. However, figure skating also has its own unique characteristics, that is, athletes themselves must have a certain ability to appreciate music, but also expressive and infectious. Athletes should not only show their skating skills to the audience and the judges, but also let the judges see their most unique forms of expression and give them beautiful enjoyment. Therefore, the selection of figure skaters is the most stringent. I only know that there are several pairs of famous figure skaters in China: Shen Hongbo, Zhang Hao, Pang Qingtongjian and Han Cong Sui Wenjing. Li Zijun is single, but the rest is unclear. There are also some famous foreign athletes, such as Korean Princess Jin Yaner and Japanese athlete Yuzuru Hanyu, who is regarded as a genius.
I haven't learned skating systematically, but I have learned roller skating. I often wrestle during my study and my legs are black and blue. Once I fell to the ground, lying flat on the ground, feeling that my mind was not very clear. Even so, I didn't learn to skate. It's so difficult to learn roller skating, and you have to experience so many falls, not to mention figure skating whose difficulty coefficient is several times that of roller skating. It is estimated that the skater falls more often and often completes some difficult movements, such as lifting and turning.
In my opinion, every athlete is a hero. The time, sweat and pain behind them are beyond our imagination. It is with these respectable athletes that our country can win the gold medal in the Olympic Games.
