I and my friends often gathered, this time I came back from Heilongjiang to collect wind, and about to get together with everyone, the buddies also came as promised, but after three rounds of wine, after the five flavors of the dish, the brothers who are known as ski masters began to ignore my existence, and continued to talk about how to ski on the high-level roads, how to attract people's envy, etc., that was simply spit all over the sky, until I silently asked a sentence "You ski so well, then do you know how the ski slopes are divided?"

What's going on? ah! I thought everyone knew about it? A buddy can't help but say, don't sell Guanzi, hurry up! Dele, I also learn to sell now, and the old ones nag.

Ski slopes are most commonly divided in three colors, green, blue and red. More advanced pistes are marked in black, orange and yellow. So what is the difference between these colors of the pistes? I took a sip of the beer in front of me, cleared my throat and continued. For example, the green slope is marked, its slope is between 6% and 25%, and the green slope is relatively wide, which belongs to the snow groomer, so it is relatively flat.

The blue-marked slopes, with slopes of less than 25%, are also snow-pressed by snow groomers, and these two types of slopes are suitable for beginner and intermediate skiers. The slope of the red slope is less than 40%, and the slope is relatively narrow, which belongs to the advanced road. And black is the narrowest and steepest of all the pistes, and those who dare to play this piste are definitely masters.

With the increasing popularity of ice and snow sports in recent years, snow parks in China have also been fully developed. At present, among the domestic ski resorts, the ski slopes certified by the International Snow Federation (FIS) include Jilin Beidahu No. 9 Snow Track, Three Ski Trails of Zhangjiakou Genting Park, six ski tracks of Zhangjiakou Wanlong Ski Resort, two ski tracks of yabuli Ski Resort's Cauldron Helmet and Two Pot Helmets, and so on. At this time, the crowd has listened very attentively, one of the friends asked me, we have been skiing in Zhangjiakou Chongli, but due to the Winter Olympics, the snow field is temporarily closed to tourists, do you have any good snow recommended for this time to go to the northeast to collect wind?

I said, in fact, for the northeast region, due to the early development of ice and snow sports, the geographical environment is also very suitable for winter ice and snow sports, there are many good snow fields, such as the Yabuli Sunshine Ski Resort I went to this time, the whole snow field has a total of 17 ski tracks, the highest slope three pot helmets are nearly a thousand meters above sea level, the maximum slope reaches 50 °, known as the paradise of the brave. But to tell the truth, I definitely did not dare to go on this advanced path, and I was dizzy when I looked at it from a distance. But I tried the snowboarding intermediate track.

Have you also learned to ski? Is it actually a veneer? A friend asked, why can't I ski? I did not study for a long time, but I am talented and intelligent, the artist is bold, and I have learned to "fall leaves", I am very proud to say that the primary road can no longer satisfy my wild heart, so I heard a local friend say that there is an intermediate road in the sunshine snow field that is very famous among domestic snow friends, so I tried it specially.

The trail is numbered A1 on the slopes, with a total length of more than 2800 meters, a maximum gradient of 18°, and a width of 22 meters, which is very suitable for skiers like me who are beginners and intermediates. The buddies can't help but marvel that the most unpopular ski enthusiast, who was originally known as the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei Snow Resort, actually dared to go to the middle road. Hey, think about it, I have been in contact with skiing for many years, but there is no systematic, every time after going on the slope, it is to turn over and fall down, once I happen to come down from the slope, the snow compressor on the slope, friends say, because I smashed the snow track out of a pit, the snow groomer is to give me a flat pit. Since then, friends have said that I am "the most unpopular ski enthusiast in the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei Ski Resort".

At this time, the TV is still broadcasting the Winter Olympic games live, watching the Chinese ice and snow athletes galloping on the Olympic Games field, there is an indescribable sense of pride in their hearts. Filmed in Switzerland a few years ago, I was wondering when China would have such a beautiful and advanced snow field, but many years later, looking back at the Swiss ski resort at that time, it seems that it is very backward. Everything in China today marks China's growing strength and embodies the principle that a strong country is a strong people, a rich country is a rich country, and a country is a nation that is becoming more and more prosperous.
