2004 年2 月18 日,苏翊鸣出生于吉林省吉林市,4 岁时被父亲带到雪场滑雪,后来慢慢喜欢上了滑雪。8 岁那年,他信誓旦旦地说,只想把滑雪当成一种爱好,如果当成专业,他会厌倦每天的练习,再也不想听到“滑雪”这两个字。那时的他兴趣广泛、生活多彩,还是一名小童星,踏上过演艺之路。

2014 年,10 岁的苏翊鸣就出演了徐克导演的电影《智取威虎山》。此外,他还出演过《林海雪原》《生逢灿烂的日子》《摇滚小子》《狼殿下》等影视作品。

2015 年7 月31 日,苏翊鸣迎来人生的转折。2022 年冬奥会举办权花落北京,他毅然选择把滑雪作为自己的“主项”,从此走上职业滑雪之路。2018 年,14 岁的苏翊鸣入选国家队。2021 年10 月,苏翊鸣在奥地利训练时成功完成内转1980度抓板超高难度动作,成为完成该动作的世界第一人,并获得吉尼斯世界纪录认证;同年12 月,他便在单板滑雪大跳台世界杯美国斯廷博特站上夺冠,创造了中国选手在该项目上的新历史。2022 年,他在北京冬奥会上继坡面障碍技巧夺银后又获得第二枚奖牌。这也是中国代表团本届冬奥会的第六枚金牌,创造历史最佳。

“在北京冬奥会单板滑雪大跳台比赛中,已在本届冬奥会中夺得一枚银牌,即将年满18 周岁的小将苏翊鸣决赛前两轮以完美的发挥奠定胜局,以182.5 的高分再夺一枚金牌,成为我国历史上最年轻的冬奥会冠军。祝贺苏翊鸣!这是他献给自己最好的成人礼!是送给全国人民元宵佳节最好的礼物!”(体育总局冬运中心贺信)

赛后,苏翊鸣回应道:“1980 的动作我一直在准备,今天早上训练时我也做了很多次。如果今天我的成绩在第三跳出发之前不够取得一个冠军的分数,我肯定会去尝试。但是在真正的冠军已经到来的时候,我只是想享受比赛。”

奥运金牌将鼓励他寻求更多突破,甚至超越他的运动生涯。“我喜欢单板滑雪,就像我喜欢表演一样,”周五就满18 岁的苏翊鸣说,“我认为我在未来的职业生涯中仍有很多可能性需要探索,无论是单板滑雪还是表演。但现在我只想享受这一刻,把它作为最好的生日礼物来庆祝。”

苏翊鸣认为对这项运动的“热爱”是制胜的法宝。“单板滑雪不仅仅是竞争,最重要的是爱。在这里你可以看到,每一位来自不同国家的选手,我们都有一个共同点——我们热爱滑雪。这都是出于我们的爱。”
