Chapter 284: Super High Prize and Super Difficult Tournament System

"Du Xiaosheng, you are a wingsuit master who rushed out of the storm of death, are you confident of winning the championship in this World Championships?"

In the face of sharp questions from foreign media reporters, Du Xiaosheng did not panic at all, and said in fluent English: "This wingsuit competition is known as the strongest competition in the past, and many players are seniors, such as Eltac, Fernando, Kate and Kate Brothers, etc., they are all famous wingsuit masters in the world. ”

Originally, many other players in wingsuit flights, because Du Xiaosheng stole their limelight, were quite hostile to this Chinese player, but when they heard Du Xiaosheng talk about each of them, and even called out their names, and showed full respect, these people's senses towards Du Xiaosheng suddenly changed greatly.

"I heard that you accepted the challenge of Vincent, the 5th World Champion of Wingsuit Championships, online, is there such a thing? Do you think you're better than the 5th World Wingsuit Champion? ”

looked down at the reporter's TV station logo, and suddenly found that this was a French magazine with a French extreme sports column, since it was from the same country as Vincent, the questions frequently pointed to Vincent, which was obviously a language trap for Du Xiaosheng.

Du Xiaosheng frowned slightly, changed his mouth and said lightly in Chinese: "Who is strong and who is weak is not said with the mouth, but since it is Vincent who challenges me, then the answer is obvious, I have only heard of the weak challenging the strong, I have never heard of the strong challenging the weak, whether I can beat Vincent or not will see you in the arena, but at least in Vincent's heart, I am probably stronger than him." ”

Hearing Du Xiaosheng's words, the Chinese reporters present instantly cheered for Du Xiaosheng, and in the face of the provocation of foreign media, Du Xiaosheng took out the tough posture that a big country player should have.

With such an opening, the rest of the interview went much smoother, twenty minutes later.

As three jets pulled out six rainbow-colored colored smoke in the air, the opening ceremony of the competition was immediately held, and with the intervention of the staff, the reporters reluctantly left Du Xiaosheng.

At this time, on the square under the gate of Tianmen Mountain, the host stood under the stage and had begun to introduce the information of the contestants through the LED big screen.

After the fourteen salutes rang out seven times at the foot of the mountain, on the main square of Tianmen Mountain, many dancers dressed as alien Avatar sang and danced in the theme music of the movie "Avatar", followed by beautiful Tujia, Bai and Miao girls, wearing local costumes, singing for the audience who came to watch the game.

During the singing and dancing period, commentators and reporters from various countries introduced the situation of the competition in various Chinese languages.

“…… With the opening ceremony of the 7th Wingsuit Flying World Championship officially held, the wingsuit pilots on the top of Tianmen Mountain have also begun to prepare intensely. Through the large screen, we can see that with the help of the referee and staff, the players are doing the final checks on the safety of the flying squirrel suit and the installation of flight smoke......"

"The championship prize of this Grand Prix is jointly sponsored by the world's functional drink Black Bull and the world's extreme sports flight brand Zhifei, which not only exceeds the highest prize of 5 million yuan in the past year, but also reaches 12 million! There have also been changes to the players and the way they compete......"

Since September 24, 2011, the "2011 Wingsuit Flight Through Tianmen" extreme challenge activity has been staged in Tianmen Mountain.

Nearly 100 wingsuit pilots from the United States, Italy, Finland and other countries took the Tianmen Mountain cableway car and the mountaintop cliff as the starting point to perform wonderful wingsuit flight performances.

On the same day, the world's top "wingsuit flying man", Jeb from the United States? Corris also successfully challenged the first human unpowered wingsuit flight through the Tianmen Cave.

"Today, also on September 24, we ushered in the seventh wingsuit flight world championship, to this day, not only the prize money has been increased, the difficulty of this competition has been greater than in the past, the contestants gathered at the top of Tianmen Mountain today, instead of as the previous sessions were Tianmen Mountain cableway car, the top cliff as the starting point, the wingsuit flight competition, the contestants will be on the top of Tianmen Mountain, take a helicopter to rise to an altitude of 2000 meters above sea level, after crossing the Tianmen, Take part in an "Aerial F1" event that combines racing and targeted movement! ”

Unlike races on land, wingsuit flying, known as "Formula 1 in the air", has more complex requirements for race organization and performance calculation.

Infrared timing equipment will be installed at the starting point of each competition, and the timing will officially start when any part of the athlete's body passes the infrared starting line of the cabin after jumping from here.

It is a difficult choice to give up the Tianmen Mountain wingsuit flight fixed point jumping, as the world's wingsuit flight headquarters, Tianmen Mountain has the world's best wingsuit flight and fixed point skydiving activities in the jumping platform, whether it is for athletes or other staff on it, it is very safe, but the competition is like this, up to 6 racing competitions, can no longer meet the increasingly technical and mature wingsuit heroes.

The improvement of the seventh edition is a dangerous attempt, and it is also a new journey for the world's extreme wingsuit heroes to break through the limit.

"The course of this wingsuit flight was redesigned by Jeb, the world's first to pass through the gate of heaven, and the competition not only retains the switchback point that must be passed, but if you don't bypass here, you will be judged a foul and the result will be invalid. And this switchback in the air is also considered by Jeb to be the most difficult part of the competition, "You must know that the fastest speed in the air will be about 200 kilometers per hour, and it takes a lot of skill to turn in this case. ”

Directly below the cable car line is the position of the finish judge, and when he sees that the runner's body is all under the cable car line, he only needs to press a button connected to the infrared timer at the start point with a wireless signal to complete the timing of the race, and the fastest runner wins. However, if a competitor flies above the cable car line, it is a foul and the race result will be cancelled. ”

Hearing such a strict, dangerous and exciting new format, many wingsuit flying enthusiasts showed a surprised expression.

The wingsuit heroes, including Du Xiaosheng, learned about the new competition system and route as early as when they signed up, but despite this, they still had a solemn expression on their faces.

Obviously, even the world's top wingsuit man feels pressured to face such difficult competition rules.

"If you encounter danger in this competition, you must take emergency landing measures, if there is no objection, please confirm the exemption safety clause again, confirm and sign for the last time, and the final safety check will be carried out immediately in the competition......"
