At the 2018 Winter Olympics, Kobayashi competed in the men's normal hill, placing 7th, as well as the men's large hill, placing 10th. He has also competed in the team event with teammates Taku Takeuchi, Noriaki Kasai, and Daiki Ito, finishing in 6th place.[2]

Kobayashi won his first Olympic gold medal at the 2022 Winter Olympics in Beijing in the men's normal hill event.

He also succeeded in the other one tournament, in the men's large hill placing 2nd.

Personal life

Ryōyū Kobayashi was born on 8 November 1996 in Hachimantai, Iwate Prefecture, Japan.[7] He began skiing at the age of five but began ski jumping in the first grade inspired by his older brother and Japanese ski jumper Junshiro Kobayashi.[7] He usually practiced at Tayama Ski Jumping Hill in Hachimantai and Hanawa Jumping Hill in Kazuno, Akita.[8] In 2015, he joined Japanese ski jumping team Tsuchiya Home Ski Team.[7]

He has two older siblings, Junshirō Kobayashi and Yūka Kobayashi, and a younger brother, Tatsunao Kobayashi; they all are ski jumpers. He attended Morioka Central High School and graduated in 2015.[7]
