On the 20th, six gold medals were awarded in the snow event. In the open women's slalom final, when sliding to the last wave slope, Zhang Xuelian of Heilongjiang team fell to the ground due to an unstable center of gravity and crashed into Pan Yuchen of the Sichuan team, who was almost neck-to-neck, causing the latter to fall.

The final result was that the referee team judged the contact at the last moment as Zhang Xuelian's collision foul, Pan Yuchen's silver medal turned into a gold medal, and Zhang Xuelian won the silver medal.
