Beginner skiing tips

There are two types of snowboard shapes when skiing, and beginners use a figure-eight shape, also called a wedge shape. When decelerating, the point of force of the feet is on the inner heels of the feet, and the chest and abdomen are raised to ensure that the center of gravity tilts forward. Skiing skills for beginners. Skiing is a relatively exciting sport. Here are the skiing skills for beginners that I have collected. Welcome to read and collect.

Beginner skiing skills and precautions 1:

1) How do beginners turn?

For beginners of skiing and snowboarding, turning is the first step to break through The first difficulty, you may want to familiarize yourself with the following skills before setting foot on the snow road:

1. Turn right to increase the pressure of the left snowboard on the snow surface, and vice versa for left turns.

2. When turning, in addition to the pressure exerted by the snowboard on the snow surface, the pressurized soles of the feet also turn inward.

3. The knees do not press inward, just keep them bent. To summarize the eight-character formula: press left and turn right; press right and turn left.

2) Beginner skiers should be able to fall when skiing

From a novice to an expert, falling while skiing is inevitable. Learning the correct falling posture can avoid injuries as much as possible:

1. Sit to the left or right rear;

2. Never sit directly behind you, because your buttocks cannot reach the ground if you sit directly behind you;

3. Place your hands on both sides and avoid being pressed by your buttocks;

4. After your buttocks touch the ground, the steel edge of the snowboard will also scrape the snow, causing resistance and stopping the snowboard from sliding. .

3) A beginner skier stands up after falling

1. The buttocks are above and the snowboard is below;

2. The snowboards come together and merge It is 90 degrees to the slope;

3. Support your hips and body with your hands, squat on the snowboard and stand up;

4. You can also place the snowball fight behind you to The snowball fight was held.

4) How do beginners make a U-turn while standing on a hillside?

1. Use the figure-eight braking technique to stop on the slope;

2. Keep the tail of the board steady and fast Move the tip of the board, turn your body, and keep the board in a figure-eight shape when moving, and use the edge to catch the snow surface.

5) How do ski beginners make a U-turn while sliding?

1. When learning, first use the figure-eight braking method to slow down to a certain speed;

2. If you want to When turning left, tilt your body's center of gravity to your right foot and keep the snowboard parallel to the snow surface;

3. At this time, you can open your arms to feel the gravity and direction;

4. The coach said , please relax now and think about something delicious to eat later.

Master the above 5 essentials of beginner’s skills. If you fall a few more times, you will gradually be able to become one with the sled. Come on!

Beginners’ attention to skiing Matter 2:

Beginners must first practice on a flat site with a short distance and a small slope. After repeated practice and improvement, you will gradually transition to venues with long distances, steep slopes and fast speeds.

1. Choose good weather: Choose a good time to play according to weather changes. It is best to avoid windy and snowy days.

2. Prepare ski clothes: skiing has certain requirements for clothing. The top should be loose to facilitate the sliding action; the cuffs and trousers should be constricted and have adjustable elasticity. Effectively prevent snow from entering; the collar should be an upright high collar opening to prevent cold air from entering. It is best to use a pull-over ski hat to prevent cold wind from damaging your face. The color of the clothing should be bright or in contrast with the snow surface so that it is easy to identify and avoid collision.

3. Wear snow goggles: The sunlight on the snow reflects very strongly, and the cold wind during sliding is also very irritating to the eyes. You need to wear a suitable pair of glasses to protect your eyes. You should choose a fully enclosed ski goggle with a thicker frame. At the same time, the outer frame should have vents made of breathable sponges to allow the hot air discharged from the facial skin to disperse outside the mirror to ensure a good visual effect on the mirror surface.

4. Apply sunscreen: Due to the irritation of the cold wind on the skin and the burning of the skin by the strong ultraviolet rays on the snow, you can choose some oily skin care products that can prevent the loss of water, and then use Apply sunscreen with better UV protection to your skin.

5. Anti-frostbite: Frostbite in the human body mainly occurs on the hands, feet, ears and other parts, so cashmere products or chemical fiber products with better thermal insulation effects should be used to insulate the above parts.

6. Bring some high-energy foods: Once you are intoxicated with the fun of skiing, you often forget to eat. Therefore, you should bring some high-energy portable foods, such as beef jerky, chocolate, etc., to ensure adequate calorie supply.

7. Understand the conditions of the ski trails: You should carefully understand the height, width, length, slope and direction of the ski trails. This is especially important for beginners.

8. Check ski tools: Skis and ski poles should be carefully checked, including whether there are any breaks and whether the bindings are firmly connected.

9. Safety is the most important thing: Remember not to ski after drinking alcohol. Frostbite is easy to occur if you lie out drunk. Do not ski outside the ski area boundaries without permission. Don't fight when skiing. It's better to fall than to have a collision. Collisions are very dangerous.

Beginner skiing skills 3:

1. First, develop the ability to adapt to snow and skis. At this stage, it is best to practice on flat ground, keeping the two snowboards parallel, one step at a time One step is like walking forward and sideways. In order to find a sense of balance, it is best not to use ski poles at this time.

2. After getting used to the snow and skis, you can start walking sideways uphill step by step on a gentle slope. Then, the two snowboards slide sideways down the mountain at the same time, that is, they slide sideways. At this point, you can try the feeling of standing on the steel edge of the snowboard for braking.

3. The tips of the two snowboards face each other, and the tails of the boards are separated so that the snowboards form a V shape. Slightly raise the inner steel edges (i.e., the vertical edges) of the two boards. Try to slide down slowly in this posture. Perform a plow slide. In the state of plowing, try to increase the separation between the edge and the tail of the ski to reduce the skiing speed until it stops. This technique is called plow braking.

4. If you have mastered plow sliding and plow braking, you can try to learn plow turning. At this time, slowly move your body weight evenly distributed on the two snowboards toward the outside of the turning arc, and gradually begin to slide out of the arc. At the same time, the inner edge (steel edge) of the outer snowboard should be firmly pressed against the snow surface. To stop a turn simply redistribute your weight evenly between the two skis.

5. Next, keep the two snowboards parallel. During the sliding process, quickly move the center of gravity of the body to the snowboard on the lower side of the mountain. This requires good strength and strength of the legs on the lower side of the mountain. Control the ability to avoid losing control and rushing down the mountain. Then, after turning the arc from this state, the snowboard on the upper side of the mountain can be moved to a state parallel to the other snowboard. The above action process is what people call the plow swing turn.

6. Next, it’s time to learn parallel turning and gliding. The two skis are parallel and hip-width apart, and turns are achieved by exchanging the center of gravity left and right.

With the above 6 steps, novices can try to experience the feeling before going to the ski resort, and then under the guidance of the coach, I believe they can quickly learn to ski.

Skiing skills

1. Snowboard prices vary: Generally, skis are divided into wood, fiberglass and metal. Wooden ones are light and cheap, but are easily affected by moisture and deformation, so before use It is advisable to apply special grease to prevent snow from sticking and soaking in. Fiberglass skis are suitable for any snow quality, but are more expensive. Aluminum alloy metal skis are easy to turn on light and dry deep snow and ice, and are also more expensive. There are currently skis made of a mixture of these three materials, which are most popular among ski enthusiasts.

2. Ski poles are used to maintain balance: referred to as ski poles, their function is to help slide and maintain the balance of the body. When choosing, the principles should be light weight, not easy to break, good balance, and suitable for your height. Generally starting from the snow wheel, the longest is no more than the shoulder, and the shortest is no less than the waist.

It can be worn through a leather bracelet to fit comfortably in your hand when holding a stick and swinging it.

3. Bindings to avoid skiing injuries: All skis have a device to fix ski boots on them. When a skier falls, the bindings will quickly loosen, so it is an important protection to avoid skiing injuries. One of the instruments.

4. Ski clothing should be practical first: it should be warm, wind and snowproof, comfortable and fit, not hinder movement and minimize wind resistance. Although professional ski clothing is of high quality, it is expensive, so generally just buy practical ordinary clothing.

5. Ski boots are warm and fit: Beginners and amateurs can choose ski boots that are warm, fit and waterproof. It is best to choose short boots with a lower shaft to avoid affecting the flexion of the ankle.

6. Tinted glasses are essential: Due to the strong reflection of sunlight on the snow, you must wear tinted glasses to protect your eyes. Plastic frames are safer; yellow or brown lens colors are preferred.

Expansion: Tips for beginners to learn skiing

1. Choose suitable ski boots, skis, and ski poles. Suitable boots should allow your shins, heels, and insteps to be The grip should be tight without feeling compressed, the ankle joint should be able to bend, and the toes should be able to move and grip the ground. In short, the boot and foot should become one unit.

2. The correct way to hold the pole is to first put your hand through the strap of the pole, and then hold the strap in your hand, so that if you fall, the pole will not be thrown out subconsciously.

3. After putting on the board, place the poles in both hands on the snow on both sides of the body to help balance. At the same time, move your feet forward and backward on the board to adapt to the snowboard.

4. When putting on the snowboard, you should first place the snowboard parallel to the snow. If the snow is uneven, you should make the snowboard perpendicular to the fall line. When putting on the snowboard, you should first put it on down the mountain. Use the snowball fight as support, first insert the front end of the snowshoe into the groove at the front of the boot clip, align the rear end of the boot clip and step down firmly. At this time, the boot clamp should fix the snow boots on the snowboard, and then jump up to check whether the connection between the ski boots and the skis is firm.

5. When standing on the snow, remember not to let your feet dangling in the boots just for comfort, as this may sprain your feet. When walking in the snow with snow boots, walk moderately and land with your heels first.

6. Although it is skiing, there are always times when you need to walk. You can go straight on a relatively flat area, that is, the snowboard is parallel to the direction of travel. The steeper ones are like crabs. It is better for beginners to take off their skis and put them back on somewhere. Before taking off or loading skis on a slope, adjust the skis so that they are perpendicular to the trail to prevent the skis from being thrown away and leaving you free to go down the slope.

7. Bend your knees slightly and look straight into the distance rather than staring at the tip of your snowboard. The center of gravity should be forward, not backward, and the calves should be pressed forward to press the snow boots firmly. Hold the snow poles in both hands and raise them forward, with your elbows slightly bent. Beginners should not put their gloves in the rope sleeve of the stick handle.

8. There are two types of snowboard shapes when skiing. Beginners use the figure-eight shape, also known as the wedge shape. When decelerating, the point of force of the feet is on the inner heels of the feet. Keep the chest and abdomen high to ensure that the center of gravity tilts forward. Learn quickly, and you will be beautiful once you master the parallel technology.

9. Unless you are on flat ground, beginners should not let their snowboards move forward parallel to each other. They should always maintain a figure of eight, pull inward when accelerating, and move outward when decelerating. Always be careful not to let the snowboard slide forward. Too fast. When stopping, slow down slowly first and don't try to stop quickly.

10. If the body leans to the left, it will turn right; if the body leans to the right, it will turn left.

11. Keep your chin close to your chest to prevent the back of your head from being hit, and relax your limbs. Don't hold on hard. Once the center of gravity is lost, beginners should not try to regain control. It is better to let them fall to avoid injury. When getting up after a fall, it is recommended that beginners take off their skis and put them back on after standing up. Remember that the skis should be perpendicular to the trail.

12. How to stand up after falling: Move your body slightly and check for injuries. Confirm the direction of the fall line. Lift the skis into the air and place them toward the bottom of the mountain. The double plates are parallel and perpendicular to the fall line.

Precautions for beginners to ski

1. Understand the local climate conditions and recent weather changes to prevent sudden changes in weather.

2. When you first arrive at the ski resort, you should first inspect the general situation of the ski resort. You should carefully understand the height, slope, length, width and surrounding conditions of the ski trails, and choose according to your own skiing level. Corresponding slide. Remember the distribution location of ski resort facilities on the map, recognize warning signs, and strictly abide by the relevant safety management regulations of the ski resort. Pay attention to the opening hours of the ropeway and do not ride it when it is unattended.

3. Pay attention to the safety and reliability of equipment and routes when skiing. It is necessary to check the skis and ski poles well in advance, including whether there are any breaks, whether the binding connection is firm, and whether the accessories are complete, etc. It is best to bring spare boards, spare poles and repair tools, and use a guide in unfamiliar snow areas. If you find any abnormality in the equipment or unclear road conditions while taxiing, you should stop first and wait for the situation to be identified before continuing forward.

4. You should understand the relevant rules of skiing. For example, when stopping to rest, you should leave the snow path to avoid affecting others. You should not collide with the person in front of you when downhill, otherwise you will be mainly responsible for the accident.

5. Learn some basic health care knowledge and self-rescue and first aid knowledge before departure. For example, the parts that are prone to frostbite during skiing are fingers, feet, ears, nose, genitals, etc. Cashmere products or chemical fiber products with better thermal insulation effect should be used to keep the above parts warm; the most common trauma is thumb contusion; the most common disease is stomachache , abdominal pain and snow blindness, etc.
