‘Iron Man’ Yoon Seong-bin (27, Gangwon Provincial Office) won the silver medal in the second World Cup in the season.
Yoon Sung-bin took second place in the 7th men’s skeleton match at the 2020-2021 International Bobsleigh Skeleton Federation (IBSF) World Cup held in Konigissee, Germany on the 22nd (Korean time), recording a total of 1 minute, 39 seconds and 92 seconds.
Alexander Gasner (1:39:88, Germany) won the second World Cup in the season following the 6th tournament held in St. Moritz, Switzerland last week.
The bronze medal was for Alexander Tretiakov (1:40:01, Russia).
Yoon Sung-bin won the bronze medal in the sixth competition, the first race of her season, and won two competitions in a row.
In addition, he won the silver medal for the 4th World Cup in his career on the Konigis track and continued his strong side here.
Yoon Sung-bin challenges to win the first and last World Cup of the season at the final 8th tournament held in Innsbruck, Austria on the 29th.
Yoon Sung-bin, who stopped starting in 4 seconds and 550,000, which was the fastest in the first period, gained momentum in driving and passed the finish line in 49 seconds and 90, and climbed to the top.
Yoon Seong-bin also recorded first place in the second period with 4 seconds and 58 seconds.
Even in driving, it seemed to pass the course faster than Gasner, but the acceleration fell in the last curve section ahead of the finish line, so he gave the gold medal regrettably.
Jeong Seung-gi (22, Catholic Kwandong University), who participated with Yoon Seong-bin, ranked 9th with 1 minute 40 seconds 77 and Kim Ji-soo 12th with 1 minute 41 seconds 11.
The sledding team has been participating in the second half of the season due to problems such as self-isolation and cost due to the novel coronavirus infection (Corona 19) pandemic.
