Pang Qing/Tong Jian is an excellent figure skating pair in China. From 65438 to 0993, he began to partner in figure skating double skating, and studied with Shen Xue/Zhao Hongbo and Zhang Dan/Zhang Hao under China figure skating meritorious coach Yao Bin, who was called "the second child" by Yao Bin.
Pang Qing was born on197965438+February 24th, with a height of1.62m and a weight of 42kg. Tong Jian was born on August 5, 1979, with a height of1.80m and a weight of 75kg. Both of them are from Harbin, Heilongjiang Province, and both started skating training at the age of 6.
They are all single skaters. 199 1 year, Tong Jian was attracted by the ice dance coach with his slender figure and skillful skating skills, and practiced ice dance with another female athlete group. Two years later, Tong Jian's female companion Zhang Xiwen retired due to injury, which put Tong Jian in a dilemma. At the same time, Pang Qing's women's singles skating road has also fallen into a trough. Just then, Yao Bin, who was eager for talent, was looking for excellent pairs skaters everywhere, and Pang Qing and Tong Jian, whose careers were in trouble, entered his field of vision.
First, coach Yao Bin offered an olive branch to Tong Jian and asked him if he would like to practice synchronized skating instead. Although there are few examples of switching from ice dancing to pair skating in the world, and it is very difficult from a technical point of view, out of admiration and trust for Yao Bin, Tong Jian decided to give it a try after consulting with his family. Soon, Yao Bin found Pang Qing as his companion for Tong Jian, and the two began to "hold hands" from then on.
/kloc-in the summer of 0/993, Yao Bin brought two girls to Tong Jian and asked Tong Jian to choose his own pair skating partner from them. Tong Jian chose Pang Qing at a glance. To be fair, Yao Bin's choice of Pang Qing, Tong Jian and Tong Jian's choice of Pang Qing seems to be somewhat "blind". Because there is an unwritten standard in the selection of pairs skaters-"Boys must have strength and girls must be petite and exquisite", almost all successful pairs skaters in the world are combined according to this model. However, Pang Qing's height is almost the same as that of Tong Jian, and Tong Jian's figure is a little thin. When holding Tong Jian's hand on the ice for the first time, Pang Qing was still muttering: "He is so thin, can you lift me up?" Many years later, Tong Jian explained why he chose Pang Qing-"I chose Pang Qing because I was influenced by my previous skating and dancing. I think girls must have long lines, and Pang Qing's personality is a bit stubborn. Generally speaking, such girls are more suitable for completing difficult tasks together. " Isn't that what Yao Bin values? With his slender figure and stubborn personality, Yao Bin chose Pang Qing and Tong Jian as key prospects and introduced them to each other. Tong Jian chose Pang Qing as her partner because of her slender figure and stubborn personality. The slender figure and stubborn personality made Yao Bin accept their "free combination" without hindrance; Slender figure, stubborn personality ... Although the slender lines make Pang Qing and Tong Jian face some setbacks in training and competition, they make their body language delicate and stretched. Although Pang Qing and Tong Jian's stubborn personality made their cooperation stumble and ups and downs, they never bowed their heads and never gave up in the face of all kinds of difficulties and obstacles. Although, from the traditional point of view, the selection criteria are not very "scientific", it is precisely this "unscientific" that makes the ever-changing femininity of ice dancing and the magnificent beauty of pair skating merge into one after many years, adding a gorgeous, magnificent and moving picture to the world skating rink. It can be said that Yao Bin is a coach with great vision. His "free pen" not only contributed to the marriage between Pang Qing and Tong Jian, but also made the legend of China's double skating. ...
abstract
In the first few years, the development of Pang Qing/Tong Jian was not smooth. The biggest reason is that Yao Bin has no time to take care of their training. Of course, this is not weird. In fact, Yao Bin was also forced. In order to quickly improve the performance of pairs skating, Yao Bin repeatedly asked the relevant leaders to let his team members go to the national team for training. However, the focus of figure skating in China at that time was women's singles skating, or more precisely, Chen Lu. They simply disdained Yao Bin's recommendation of a pair skater whose performance was already at the bottom of the world at that time, as a competent leader said at that time-"Just say yes, the level of pair skating in China is still early, and so are you.
But Yao Bin was indecisive. At the end of 1993, he finally agreed to let Shen Xue/Zhao Hongbo try the national team, but only Shen Xue/Zhao Hongbo. Pang Qing/Tong Jian simply can't stand such benefits. No way, Yao Bin had to leave Harbin with Shen Xue/Zhao Hongbo, leaving Pang Qing/Tong Jian alone to train with the provincial team. I thought it was just a short separation, but I didn't expect it to be five years. At the time of parting, Pang Qing/Tong Jianlian had not learned the basic movements of pair skating.
In the past five years, in order to make Shen Xue/Zhao Hongbo make achievements as soon as possible and change the position of pair skating as soon as possible, Yao Bin devoted himself almost wholeheartedly to Shen Xue/Zhao Hongbo, and Pang Qing/Tong Jian basically didn't see the coach for many years. So, how will the training be conducted without a coach? "We can arrange freely, sometimes with men's singles on the ice, sometimes with women's singles, and see which coach has not left after guiding his athletes, so we will find someone to teach." When it was game time, the two of them began to watch other people's game videos, cobbled together a set of programs, and then muddled through the game. In this way, holding hands for one year, Pang Qing/Tong Jian only mastered four of the eight pairs of figure skating. It took them two weeks to master the first difficult movement, or in a national competition in 1994, Yao Bin took the time to teach them by meeting them briefly.
"Mixed training" also greatly affected the training enthusiasm of the two young people. Tong Jian revealed that although they were partners, they never communicated. Practice hand in hand on the ice, and no one will talk to anyone after the ice, and each will play his own game. It is more common to quarrel because of differences of opinion in training. Both of them are stubborn, and some of them are unreasonable. Some trivial quarrels sometimes develop to the point of "full of gunpowder." The most serious one happened in the second year after the coach left-1995. They quarreled again when they were practicing shooting and jumping. They didn't listen to everyone's dissuasion, and they quarreled from the skating rink to the dormitory for more than an hour. In the end, they became enemies. They haven't spoken to each other for a week. During training, they skated by themselves and went home after the ice.
The unsystematic training and unharmonious relationship make their technical level stagnate for a long time. In the national championship of 1995, they gave up free skating because of their poor performance in the short program and "don't want to lose face again"
Just when two people were in pain and confusion, Yao Bin comforted them and said, "Wait, when the conditions of the national team allow, you will definitely go to Beijing for training." "Being able to train with the coach" has therefore become the spiritual motivation for the two to continue to adhere to.
Blink of an eye to 1997, Pang Qing and Tong Jian, except for the age change is not big. They were at a loss for the future, and both of them flashed the idea of retiring. At this time, with the efforts of Yao Bin, the national team agreed that Pang Qing/Tong Jian would go to Beijing for training, but all expenses would be borne by themselves. When the opportunity comes, two people's hearts are unwilling to "generate" at the same time. Without consultation, they all chose "one last try". After entering Beijing, under the influence of Yao Bin's training and Shen Xue/Zhao Hongbo, Pang Qing/Tong Jian got a great improvement. However, due to the lack of systematic training and poor basic skills, the quality and stability of their movements were greatly limited. Therefore, in the China World Youth Grand Prix held in June 1998 and the Winter Games held in June 1999, both of them made big mistakes and lost to their younger brother and sister Zhang Dan/Zhang Hao who had just been paired for a few months. As a result, people in the industry questioned the Pang Qing/Tong Jian combination one after another, and Pang Qing/Tong Jian was hit hard and lost confidence in themselves again. Fortunately, coach Yao Bin insisted on not giving up on them. Yao Bin thinks that Pang Qing/Tong Jian is a "perfect match", and they have their own characteristics. As long as it is carefully polished, it will never be bad.
1August, 1999, Pang Qing/Tong Jian and Shen Xue/Zhao Hongbo went to the United States to make arrangements. This 20-day trip to the United States was called a turning point in their career by Pang Qing/Tong Jian. During this period, the famous American director Miller compiled two new competition programs for them, which was the first time that they really had their own competition program. After all, they all used the programs that Shen Xue/Zhao Hongbo had skated before. In addition, through training with foreign players, I have a deeper understanding of this project and finally know how to train and cooperate with each other. Tong Jian said: "Although it is only 20 days, our improvement is all-round." Since then, the "enemy" relationship between Pang Qing and Tong Jian has slowly changed, and they have regained their confidence.
Pang Qing/Tong Jian participated in the International Skating Federation Grand Prix (Adult Group) for the first time in June of that year with her own program. In the Canadian race, they made a wonderful appearance with tango, and unexpectedly defeated several famous players in the short program competition and won the third place. Then, he performed "Red Poppy" in the free skating competition, and finally ranked fifth. It should be said that getting such a ranking in the Grand Prix is nothing, but it is a great encouragement for Pang Qing/Tong Jian. They think they have taken the first step, and they have received unexpected attention and recognition. Yao Bin was not present at that time because he took Shen Xue/Zhao Hongbo to other competitions. However, when he learned about Pang Qing/Tong Jian's achievements, he expressed his happiness and comfort to them unabashedly. Then, Pang Qing/Tong Jian defeated several powerful opponents in Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan and Japan at the Asian Championships held in South Korea, won the first championship in his sports career, and felt the taste of raising the national flag and playing the national anthem for the first time. ...
Subsequently, the performance of Pang Qing/Tong Jian increased steadily year by year. Since 2002, they have been the top five in the world championships. In 2004, they achieved a breakthrough of zero medals at the World Championships and became one of the top players in the world. Later, although the results of international competitions in 2005 fluctuated because of the eagerness for success, they finally overcame the difficulties and regained their confidence. At the beginning of 2006, I entered the first peak of my sports career and became a world champion! Since then, their sports career has suffered setbacks because of Tong Jian's injury, Pang Qing's illness, unacknowledged actions, unacknowledged performances and other reasons, but years of hard experience have made their hearts strong enough! After overcoming many obstacles, they finally ushered in the second spring of their sports career in the 2009-20 10 season. ...
