北京的冬天一般降雪量不大,因此2022北京冬奥会的比赛场地使用了人造雪,这些洁白的人造雪的质量获得了许多运动员和官员的称赞。
"This is by far the best man-made snow I've ever skied on," American freestyle skier Ashley Caldwell said at a press conference.
美国自由式滑雪运动员阿什利•考德威尔在一次新闻发布会上表示:“这是我迄今为止滑过的最好的人造雪。”
After receiving feedback from many athletes through the training period and first days of competition, Kit McConnell, sports director of the International Olympic Committee, said the participants believe the artificial snow is outstanding.
国际奥委会体育总监基特•麦康奈尔在训练期间和比赛前期收集许多运动员的反馈后表示,运动员认为这些人造雪非常出色。
"The focus is on doing this in a sustainable way, and also ensuring the athletes have an outstanding field of play on which to compete at the Olympic level," McConnell said.
麦康奈尔称:“主办方致力于用可持续的方式来生产人造雪,同时确保运动员拥有奥运竞技所需的绝佳比赛场地。”
