Chapter 146 The correct way to open the breaststroke
Xu Jiayu is 3 years younger than Tang Hao, but his previous name is much bigger than Tang Hao, and he is also a representative of the new generation of domestic backstroke players.
He performed well in the 100-meter backstroke competition and won the bronze medal, but he successfully won the gold medal in the 50-meter competition that had just ended. It can be seen that he is in good shape tonight.
Backstroke is the only swimming posture among the four swimming postures that start in the water. The contestants all grabbed the guardrail of the pool wall and did the pedaling movement.
"Qua!"
With a gunshot, the contestants stepped on the wall and exerted force one after another. Xu Jiayu accelerated with all his might from the beginning, rushing to the front of all the contestants.
In general, in swimming competitions that exceed 50 meters, unless Tang Hao has a much stronger strength than others, players will generally have some choice in strategy. Either they accumulate strength in the first half and chase hard in the second half. Sun Yang is the best among them, or they will gain an advantage in the early stage and suppress their opponents psychologically. Xu Jiayu belongs to the latter.
Xu Jia rushed very fiercely in the future, and before turning 50 meters, he threw himself in the lead.
However, just turned around, Chen Cheng, a veteran in the Shanghai Stock Exchange team, had already surpassed him and grabbed the first place.
After being overtaken, it became very difficult for Li Zhuhao to chase him again, and in the end he kept the second position and touched the wall.
Because there is no substantial handover baton like track and field, the contestant needs to stay at least 003 on the jump platform after the previous contestant touches the wall before he can take off.
If this time is too early, it means that the foul is directly disqualified, and if it is too late, it will suffer losses, so it is very important to grasp the timing.
This is the second time Tang Hao has participated in a relay race. He is not very experienced and takes off a little slower. As a result, he is the first to take off by the player from the naval swimming team next door.
After taking him into the water, he went from second to third.
"...Why do I feel that Tang Hao's breaststroke is unreliable? This jump will waste the advantage."
"Maybe I'm nervous, after all, I'm swimming breaststroke for the first time!"
...
Tang Hao is undoubtedly the focus of attention on the sidelines now, and every move touches the hearts of the audience.
After Tang Hao entered the water, he kicked his legs and stroked his hands and began to step forward.
When he first competed in the city team, he used the swimmer that Zhang Shun was best at, and the 50-meter speed was within 20 seconds, but the water breaststroke was different from underwater, so his speed could not be so perverted anymore.
But it was not slow either. The strength of his kicking and the rhythm of his paddling were obviously more at the right point than others. The distance between this kicking and the sliding out was dozens of centimeters more than that of others.
Because breaststroke is placed there in slow motion, it can’t get faster even if you want to. This sliding distance is the most critical technique.
He kicked the legs the same as the Navy Swimming Team player, but just after swimming 10 meters, he had successfully overtaken his opponent and then grabbed the second position.
"Damn, it's not right. Why did Tang Hao slip so far after kicking his legs?"
"Spring legs, I feel like it has added special effects!"
"If you don't think so, look at his hands again. Why do I feel that his water cutting is very smooth? Damn it, I'm about to catch up with the number one!"
...
Most of the people who came to the competition were swimming enthusiasts, and Tang Hao's amazing sliding distance quickly attracted their discussion.
The head coaches from other provinces were also surprised, and even Shen Qing was stunned.
Although he knew that Tang Hao had won Tian Yang by breaststroke, because Tang Hao basically didn't practice breaststroke, he pulled Tang Hao this time and did not have much hope. However, he didn't expect that Tang Hao would be completely amazed him after swimming for more than 20 meters.
He looked at it for a while and fell into deep thought, wanting to see how Tang Hao did this slid distance, but he couldn't see it after watching it for a long time.
In fact, it is not just him, but the head coaches in various provinces are analyzing, but they just can't analyze the reason.
At this moment, some smart reporters had already picked up their cameras and started shooting this amazing scene. Some reporters had even thought about the topic of tomorrow's report in their stomachs: A generation of frog kings, their debut was actually a substitute relay race!
At this time, in the swimming pool, Tang Hao had successfully won the first place after overtaking Chen Cheng, the Shanghai Stock Exchange team.
At this time, the players from other provinces could only stare at each other. The other three swimming postures can accelerate by accelerating the legs, but there is no way to breaststroke.
I want to chase it too, but what can I do...
Tang Hao reached the pool wall, touched the wall with his hands and then kicked the wall with his legs. After turning around, he had already pulled away the second place half of his body position.
Shen Qing couldn't help but feel excited at this time. He remembered what Tang Hao said before, "Actually, I am best at breaststroke." At that time, he thought Tang Hao was bragging, but now it seems that it is really something that can't be true in the world anymore.
He suddenly felt extremely guilty inside. Tang Hao said before that he could swim in full swing, but he didn't believe it. Tang Hao said that he was good at breaststroke, but he didn't believe it either.
Tang Hao treated him honestly, but he doubted him again and again!
At this time, the distance between Tang Hao and other players was completely widening. By 60 meters, he was already one position ahead of the second place!
Compared with freestyle, the advantages of breaststroke are indeed a bit too strong!
In the audience's astonished eyes, Tang Hao slightly widened the gap with others, and finally led the way with the advantage of being one half-body ahead of others.
After Li Zhuhao entered the water, he even passed by players from several provinces when he was out of the water. This was a rare scene in the relay race.
At this moment, some sharp-eyed players noticed the time before and after Tang Hao. Although there was no accurate timing, the speed was definitely within 1 minute, or even about 59 seconds, which was very close to the world record!
"Hey, I'm so angry! Why didn't Tang Hao swim in the 100-meter breaststroke single event?" A female spectator clapped her hands in anger.
Li Zhuhao performed very well in the 100-meter and 50-meter butterfly, and now he basically didn't squander much of the lead. After waiting for Lu Zhibin to sprint at the finale, he finally led the second player with a multi-body touching the wall, setting a new national record in the medley relay race.
Knowing that he had broken the record, the other three were so excited that Tang Hao almost lifted them up directly.
"I suddenly want to watch the Olympics, I really want to watch Tang Hao fight Kitashima Yasuke!" Some viewers said with anticipation.
Speaking of breaststroke, the island country has absolute dominance in Asia, and Kitajima Yasuke is one of the best. He won gold medals in 100-meter and 200-meter breaststroke at the Kyoto Olympics, which is an unprecedented feat. It is completely incomparable to the domestic market. Tang Hao showed up in the relay race, which directly made the audience's sense of expectation soar.
