Taiwanese stackers claim 17 gold medals
Taiwanese competitors at the World Sport Stacking Championships in Florida secured 17 gold medals and broke three world records, the Taiwan Sport Stacking Association said in a statement.
Association chairwoman Amy Chu （朱雅芳） said in the statement that Taiwan’s delegation consisted of 10 stackers and coach Su Shih-ting （蘇詩婷） at the championships held from Wednesday to Friday last week at the Rosen Plaza Hotel in Orlando, Florida.
Taiwan won 17 gold, 15 silver and nine bronze medals, the statement said.
Chen Po-yu （陳柏妤） from New Taipei Municipal Bei Da Senior High School had the biggest gold medal haul among the Taiwanese competitors, winning six, as well as one silver and four bronzes across various events.
Chen also took third place in the female division of the category with an all-around time of 9.904 seconds.
Two other notable Taiwanese stackers at the championships were Lu You-chen （呂侑宸） from Taoyuan’s Jinxing Elementary School and Tu Min-hao （杜旻澔） of the city’s Qingpu Elementary School, Chu said.
Other than winning five golds and a silver, Lu established a new world record for the male individuals 3-3-3 event for ages nine and 10 with a time of 1.698 seconds.
Lu also set the world record for the male individuals 3-6-3 and cycle events for ages seven and eight set at last year’s edition of the World Sport Stacking Championships.
