"My fear has passed"
After the final, Onozuka spoke with clogging the words.

Ski freestyle, half pipe, where the players flutter in the sky gorgeously with air of freaky fans. Not only the difficulty of air but also the beauty of height and air posture etc will be subject to evaluation.

It is the height of Air that Onozuka has received world-class evaluations. Even with low-level techniques with low difficulty, we marked high scores with overwhelming height, bronze medals at the Sochi competition, and have kept many international competitions since then.

But in December last year, the accident is hit. In the World Cup game, I fell down, banging my head, causing my cerebral crowding, and I was in a state where I could not go to the match for about a month.

Nevertheless, I went back to the third place in the World Cup that I went back to last month and I did not feel the influence such as passing through the preliminary competition without any doubt for the competition.

However, I can not quite get on the wave in the final of 20th. In the first half air failed to land in the second half. Even for the second time, the shape of the landing of the air of the first two and a half turns slightly caught. The height of the air is not in the normal condition, and the score is limited to 70 points.

Meanwhile, the top players continuously showed high air from vigorous slippage, and decided one after another with high difficulty of two and one half turns, and got a high score of 90 points.

Onozuka, who was in a difficult position to chase, began his third slide, which is the final slide, "I can hurt anymore." With the first air firmly decided the skill of two and a half turns, after that we will also succeed in hard performance configuration such as turning backward and turning 2 turns. However, the landing of the two turns which I put in the last one was slightly disturbed. The height of the air did not reach the top players to the end, and the score was 82.20. The result was fifth place.

After the game, Onozaka stated that "I was able to perform well in the sense that I was able to start, I could do the skills I wanted to do, but the technique I put in the last It was the same as when I got the cerebral artery, so my fear has passed. "

Nevertheless "While I was raising the level of the other players, I had lots of missing. I wanted a medal until the end, but I want to keep this feeling away" tears I talked.

Onozuka who fought for the second Olympic Games while fighting his enemies "Fear". I was desperately looking forward, without making excuses for the disappointing results.
