Kjeld Nuys Facts
- On March 17, 2022, in Savlen, Norway, he set a new world speed skating record by sprinting at 103 kilometers per hour.
- Nuys was named “Dutch Player of the Year 2018” on 19 December 2018 NOC NSF Sports Gala,
- Nuis has said that at the age of 3, he was fascinated by television images of skating. He began to imitate the then European champion. His parents inform him that they have bought him skates and are living near a golf course with a moat around which he will walk in circles. At the age of 7 he had registered and started participating in competitions.
- He recalled that during his youth he not only focused on speed skating but actively pursued snowboarding, breakdancing, mountain biking, rollerblading, as well as weightlifting.
- Nuis has noticed that while riding the motorcycle he is completely gone and is not able to control himself. Then he felt weakness at a traffic light. He thought that if something went wrong, he would have to face the consequences and even after buying a motorcycle, he sold it after the son came.
- He has revealed that he believes he was able to win the gold medal as a result of a combination of talent, luck and perseverance. He thought that talent had something to do with success, but he was aware of his failures. He remembers that he had come at a time when he had to make a choice. After losing two games, he had the choice to either give up or continue. At that time, he firmly found that he was overweight.
- Nuis recalls that he was thrilled to skate at 93 km/h in the back of a car with an aero shield, also surprised at how hard it was. He wanted to go fast, and did so even as far as his skates would start to vibrate. He only saw how sick he was going when he came next to the aero shield.
- He had a memorable experience flying in a stunt plane, where he was completely upside down.
