The four times Slides World Champion, Huang Hai Yang, from China, shares his memories of the World Championships 2016.
"I desperately hoped to win because I trained so hard for this World Championship", Huang Hai Yang said. "This time, I felt a great pressure, as the general level of slides has improved whether it is in Europe or in Asia. I have never attended any other competition with so many skaters. I enjoyed sharing and exchanging sliding tricks & skills in a good atmosphere in the sports stadium and then spending some time with the skaters in the hotel. Now, I want to further enhance myself as there is still much room for improvement. And for the other skaters, I look forward to their innovative sliding tricks and combos."
