With the recent "fire out of the circle" of Harbin tourism, everyone's enthusiasm for participating in ice and snow sports has become even higher.
Before participating in ice and snow sports, we need to understand the characteristics of different sports, learn basic sports skills, and take protective measures. Only by participating in ice and snow sports scientifically and safely can we better feel the charm of ice and snow sports.
Ice skating promotes bone growth in the lower limbs of adolescents
Ice skating is one of the easiest sports to get started with. Ice skating not only enhances the body's balance, coordination and flexibility, but also exercises the heart and lungs and improves aerobic capacity. Teenagers practicing ice skating can stimulate the epiphysis of the lower limb bones and promote the growth of lower limb bones. When you're just starting to skate, being able to stand firm on smooth ice is the foundation and key to mastering skating technique, which requires beginners to have good balance and muscle strength.
After entering the venue, beginners should be careful to keep in line with everyone's direction and do not practice in the opposite direction. At first, you can slowly grope around the railings on your own, or let someone who can slide with you. The central area of the rink is often where the top players are gathered, and if a novice arrives in the central area, the likelihood of being knocked over or having an accident increases.
Skiing drives kids to explore
The reason why many children love skiing is that "skiing is like flying". This kind of pleasure of galloping can greatly satisfy children's curiosity, conform to children's psychological characteristics of pursuing novelty, and can drive children to continue to explore. Skiing can be divided into snowboarding and skiing, and both are different in terms of skiing style, sports equipment, venues, and sports techniques.
Skiing has a wide audience, especially for beginners. Skiing requires skiers to hold poles in both hands and stand on two separate snowboards, which requires less balance and allows the body to rotate more flexibly because the feet are separated. Snowboarding is popular among young people because of its unique hip-hop style. Snowboarding requires the use of calf, hamstrings, and quadriceps muscles to guide the ski, ankle and foot muscles for steering, and abdominal muscles for balance. When practicing snowboarding, you need to fix your feet on a snowboard and have no snowball fight support, which requires a high level of body balance and is easy to fall, so beginners need to practice more to glide smoothly. Sledding allows children to experience the thrill of speed
In the snow park, you can often see all kinds of sleds sliding down high slopes. The sledding is mainly used by the participants to adjust the center of gravity of the body to control the direction of the sled when sliding, so that the participants can experience the thrill and excitement similar to the "roller coaster", which is deeply loved by children. The snow tubes in the snow park are somewhat similar to sledding. The appearance of the snow circle on the ice is like a doughnut, and people sit in the middle of the snow circle, relying on the simple ice track specially built by the ice park, sliding down the high slope, passing curves and straights, and adjusting the direction of the snow circle by controlling the center of gravity of the body.
It should be noted that due to inertia and the tilting of the center of gravity, the speed of sleds and snow tubing on ice will become faster and faster when sliding down high slopes, so you must learn safety guidelines before playing to avoid injury.
Keep safety in mind
Ice and snow sports are mostly carried out in alpine areas, and participants are prone to injury if they are not careful. No matter what kind of ice and snow sports children participate in, they should keep the safety guidelines in mind and put sports safety first. "At the end of the slopes is the orthopedic hospital" is a joke and a reminder. Many beginners in ice and snow sports have not received professional guidance from formal coaches, and have not fully mastered sports skills, and when an emergency occurs, due to lack of sufficient response experience, they often panic and mishandle, resulting in their own injuries or injuries to others. When participating in ice and snow sports, you must have a clear understanding of your athletic ability, and you must choose the project and difficulty that suits you step by step.
