Chinese snowboarding phenom Su Yiming just flipped gravity the bird 🌌—his mind-blowing 'back-to-back 1980' move has been officially crowned by Guinness World Records! The certification dropped Thursday, cementing the 21-year-old's status as a freestyle legend.
What's a 'back-to-back 1980'? Imagine spinning five-and-a-half times mid-air… then doing it AGAIN on the same run 🔥. Su nailed this physics-defying feat during training in Switzerland this October, proving he's still pushing snowboarding's limits.
This marks Su's second Guinness title—he first smashed records in 2021 with his 'backslide 1980 Indy Crail.' And get this: he's already dominating the 2025-26 season with back-to-back World Cup wins at China's Secret Garden and Beijing's Shougang Big Air venues 🏆.
With the 2026 Milano Cortina Winter Olympics looming, Su's looking sharper than ever. Will he three-peat his Guinness glory? The snowboard world is strapping in for the ride 🚀.
