As an extreme sport, skiing has been tried by more and more people in recent years, but many novice skiers have not mastered the basic skiing skills, and it is easy to become a "snow torpedo", and ski safety has gradually become a hot topic of public discussion. But in fact, many accidents can be avoided if you do a good job of safety protection.
1 Wear safety gear
Wear helmets, hip pads, knee pads, elbow pads, wrist pads and armor when skiing, and many people instinctively use their wrists to support the ground after falling, and you can add a protective plate inside the wrist guard. Wear the "little turtle" carefully, on the one hand, it will cause more damage due to the high angle when it falls, and on the other hand, the wet buttocks will affect the judgment of the center of gravity.
2 Learn to get it right
Take snowboard skating as an example, when falling, bend your knees, reduce your center of gravity to a minimum, and cushion your strength; Don't use your wrists to prop up the ground; Lower your head, try to let your jaw touch the position of the thoracic bone, don't raise your head, tilt your head and fall back, it is very easy to fall into the brain**.
3 Control the speed and observe the surrounding environment
Skiing is nicknamed "white opium" because of the addictive dopamine produced while skiing, but it's important to keep your speed under control and don't slide too fast and cause accidents.
If there are too many people and the slope is too narrow, you can wait a little and wait for ** to pass before starting to slide.
Do not interfere with other people's skiing, do not stay on the slope after falling, and move to the side as soon as possible.
The rear should always avoid the skier in front, if the person behind hits the person in front, the rear is fully responsible, and it is a reason to rear-end with a car.
4. Walk on the right slopes and step by step
Skiing is a gradual thing that needs to be progressed slowly. Novices must glide on the beginner trail, don't be instigated by the people around them, misjudge their skiing strength, and blindly glide on the advanced trail, the speed of the advanced trail is very fast, and it is easy to be knocked off. If you mistakenly get on the advanced trail, don't slide down, you can contact the resort staff or go down by yourself.
5 Beginners can start practicing with skis
Learning to snowboard requires some skiing experience, mastering more complex techniques, and is not very suitable for beginners.
Skis are wider than snowboards, providing greater stability, making them ideal for learning at low speeds and flats, helping beginners master the technique step by step, allowing skiers to master the basics more safely.
6 Ski in a group, beginners are advised to ask for an instructor
Don't go snow-skiing, don't go skiing without guardrails, stay with friends and take care of each other.
It is best for novices with conditions to ask a coach at the beginning of learning, so that they can correct the wrong movements in time, popularize basic skiing knowledge, and also ensure the safety of skiing and avoid going further and further on the wrong road.
7 Keep in mind
After being injured, you should move to the side of the slope as soon as possible to call for rescue**, do not move, wait for the rescue of a professional team, and beware of secondary injuries.
