Essentials of skiing posture
Detailed explanation of the most basic movements of skiing
1. How to choose a safe fall:
(1) Squat down . (2) Fall to both sides. (3) Fall up the mountain. (4) Do not struggle, let it slide, and rolling is absolutely prohibited.
2. How to stand up after falling:
(1) Move your body slightly and check if you are injured. (2) Confirm the direction of the rolling line. (3) Lift the board into the air and place it toward the bottom of the mountain. (4) The double boards are parallel and perpendicular to the fall line. (5) Bend behind your back and support your body with your hands, then stand up to the side.
3. How to master the parallel movement technique:
(1) Stand parallel to the falling line and perpendicular to the fall line. (2) Lift one ski and move it one step to the side of the body, and then move the other ski one step in the same direction. By doing this repeatedly and alternately, you can complete the movement up or down the mountain. Note that this method is only suitable for movement along the fall line. During the movement, the skis should be kept perpendicular to the fall line, and the edges should be used to clamp the snow surface to prevent sliding.
4. How to master the figure-eight walking technique:
(1) Stand facing the top of the mountain, place the skis in an outer figure-eight shape, and use the inner edge to catch the snow surface to prevent sliding. (2) Move one ski upwards, place it in a figure-eight shape, and use the edge to catch the snow surface, and then move the other ski to complete a displacement. Use it alternately repeatedly to move up the mountain.
Side kicking is a more efficient method than side kicking. The key points are: the body is facing the fall line, the head of the double board is wide and the tail is narrow, forming an outside shape, and the knees are Internally rotate so that the inner edges of the skis stand up and form an angle with the snow surface. Use both hands to hold the head of the ski pole behind you (like a cane posture) for support. The skis take turns to pedal upwards, with the ski pole naturally behind you. of support in turn.
5. How to turn around on the hillside:
When you use parallel movement and figure-eight walking techniques to reach a certain level on the hillside, how to turn around freely and slide down the mountain is a difficult point. Many people fail to grasp the key when making a U-turn. Causing falls, slipping, etc. (1) First, use the figure-eight driving technique to stop at Banpo. (2) The tail of the board does not move, and the tip of the board moves. When moving, the snowboard always forms a figure-eight shape, and uses the edge to catch the snow surface. (3) Stop when the downslope plate moves perpendicular to the fall line. The upslope board is moved parallel to the downslope board. (4) The tip of the board does not move, and the tail of the board moves. When moving, the snowboard always forms an inverted eight-figure shape, and uses the edge to catch the snow surface. (5) Stop when facing down the slope. At this time, the snowboard is in an inverted eight-figure shape and the body maintains the basic skiing movements.
6. Towing method:
When using the towing ropeway to go up the mountain, you should wear a full set of ski equipment, keep the two skis parallel, and stand facing the direction of the ropeway. When the tractor After arriving, clamp the retractor on the waist with your hands or clamp the retractor between your legs with your hands, and then it can run upward with the traction wire. The retractors are all elastic. So keep your body upright when pulling up.
7. Towing method:
Towing involves a safety issue, how to tow and slide down the mountain freely. Because if beginners are not good at getting off the slope, they may easily slide down the tow path, which may cause them to collide with people behind them. Furthermore, it is easy to slip in place, causing the towing path to be blocked. When pulling down, first choose a place with a gentler slope. While pulling down, open the tip of the board so that the snowboard stands in a figure eight shape. Then move out of the tow path.
Skiing Tips
Ski Shoes: Skiing is a very fast sport. The technical movements of skiing are mainly completed by the feet, and the requirements for shoes are very high. , the shoes must fit the feet, and the soles, insteps, and heels should be tightly wrapped.

Before using the skateboard, check whether the holder on the skateboard works well and whether the breakaway strength is adjusted to the appropriate position.
Ski pole: It is used to support the body when starting to slide and to balance the body during sliding. The length of general ski poles is between 90 and 125cm.
Ski clothing: You should choose snow clothing with impermeable fabric and good warmth retention, otherwise it will be easy to get your clothes wet when skiing.
Ski goggles: On sunny days, the snow on the slopes will reflect the sun's rays, making people feel that the light is very strong, so ski goggles are needed to block the light. At the same time, the ski goggles also play a role in blocking the wind. People can see the snow path clearly, making it easier to glide.
Gloves: Ski gloves should be made of impermeable fabric and have good warmth retention. Otherwise, it will be easy to get the gloves wet when skiing. The basic posture and balance of alpine skiing.
