China's youth-powered BMX Freestyle squad is rolling into the Paris Olympics with teenage sensations Sun Jiaqi (19) and Deng Yawen (18) leading the charge! 🎯 The duo clinched their Olympic tickets through nail-biting performances at qualifiers in Shanghai and Budapest, proving age is just a number when you’ve got ✨next-gen talent✨.
Sun Jiaqi – China’s first-ever BMX World Cup champ – and multi-skilled prodigy Deng Yawen started their careers in other sports before dominating the freestyle scene. Their rapid rise mirrors China’s explosive growth in the sport since launching its national team in 2018. 🇨🇳
While veteran teammate Sun Sibei narrowly missed qualification after a Budapest stumble, the squad remains a global force. At last year’s World Championships, Chinese riders claimed spots #2 through #6 – a testament to their depth. 💪
As Paris approaches, Sun Jiaqi admits: \"Shanghai was just the warm-up.\" With young guns like Deng bringing fresh tricks to the ramp, all eyes will be on this dynamic duo to stick their landings on the Olympic stage. 🤸♂️🔥
