For beginners, the most worrying factor may be the inability to control the speed. If you do not understand it completely, the snowboard will be faster and faster! For the middle class, when it's fast, don't get up. When it's slow, oh yeah, that guy's snowboarding!
In this visit, “how to control speed†refers to the speed of control. We generally think of “brakes†subconsciously. In fact, the speed of control does not depend on “brake†alone. We can also use the board's edge to achieve the same effect. The purpose of speed control.
When using double-board skiing, the control of speed and arc size is very important. How does this control come from? When sliding on a snowy road, the gradient of the gradient produces an acceleration, forming a push-type external force on the snowboard. Of course, there are drag-type frictional forces on the snowboard. In order to effectively use (offset or borrow) these external forces, we need to The snowboard makes the pressurization, the vertical blade and the spin three actions (carved skateboard features: see). In between these three, we use the "edge blade" to achieve the purpose of deceleration! In other words, by using the edge of the snowboard to deal with the resistance of snow to the board and adjusting the size of the arc, we can think quickly and slowly.
When considering speed control, skiers must also have the ability to maneuver the skis with good turning edge, that is, the ability to control the skis as they wish within the speed range from high to low. The so-called snowboard handling power is on the one hand your basic skills of skiing. On the other hand, the softness and hardness of the snowboard. Shen and light will also affect your control of the board. You must choose the board that suits you. Hard and soft boards are not good!
In the snow-snowy type of gliding, the amount of snow pushed to the side increases, the gliding speed can be slowed down, and the amount of side pushing can be reduced, so that the sloping speed can be maintained at a certain speed. Friends who have been plowing can understand this. However, I hope everyone will seriously consider using the current carved skateboard (carvingskis commonly known as big headboard) to make a huge pressure on the external board. If the snowboard is not pressurized enough, most of the time it is because of the small angle of the vertical edge of the snowboard. Even if the snowboard is steeply angled, if the snowboard is not pressurized, the snowboard cannot effectively withstand the resistance of the snow surface, nor can it slide out of the arc of rotation. At this time, even if the direction of the snowboard slides, the snowboard will only change. It will slide downhill, and we naturally lose control of the speed and size of the arc (see Figure 1).
On the contrary, if the snowboard is fully pressurized, the action we make (vertical edge, rotation) becomes the driving force of the snowboard. As a result, the snowboard is pulled out of the bow, and the snowboard effectively withstands the resistance of the snow surface. Slide out of the arc (see Figure 2). The size of our control of the snowboard (eg, whether it can effectively transfer our pressure to the snow board) will have a direct impact on the size of the snow slide and the depth of the arc.
The speed control in carving is generally reflected in the control of the depth of the arc of rotation. When speeding up, you need to make the arc of the arc slip slightly. If you want to slow down, slide the arc deeper. There is also a non-pure carving bend, that is, entering the beginning of the bend (first half of the curve) snow, before the exit (the latter half of the curve) to do a deep bend carving. This gliding method is called "engraving." Or, in the first half of the bend, deep bends are made, and in the second half of the bend, tails are controlled to trigger snowfall. This gliding method is called "engraving." In the actual taxiing, is this hybrid sliding method more useful?
In addition, skiers with higher levels can also consciously increase the angle of the standing edge, increase the inclining angle of the body, and effectively use the weight and centrifugal force to pull the snowboard out of the bow (see Figure 3). This sliding method looks like a "brake". In fact, this is also a control method for the size of the arc. Of course, if your board is strong, you can't pull the board out of the bow you need! !
According to different terrain and snow quality, choosing different speeds to glide can help us to increase the ski joy index. In order to achieve this goal, we need to understand and master how to slow down and how to accelerate!
