Double Olympic champion in Russian snowboarding wild vic said the decision to change sport citizenship is still not easy to make.
Wild, a native of the United States, is 36 years old and received a Russian passport in 2012. At the Olympics in Sochi, the athlete won gold in parallel and parallel giant slalom.
We all dream of a gold medal. I started dreaming about her when I was ten. And no one can stop me on the way to the goal: neither the country nor specific people. At some point I left the United States, I came to Russia to succeed. I think our authorities should support those people who are now deciding to leave. It’s not an easy decision.
We have spoken of “traitors”. Me, in the understanding of the people who say it, I am also a traitor. I need money, I want to play,” Wilde told the “Championship”.
Wild after the Beijing Games announced his retirement, but despite the announced retirement, he performed at the Russian Championship, which was held in Yuzhno-Sakhalinsk in February.
