The fifteenth day of the first month is a flower lantern, and the annual Lantern Is bright. Enjoying flower lanterns, guessing lantern riddles, and eating tangyuan have been the main traditional folk customs of the mainland Lantern Festival since ancient times. Here Xiaobian also has a riddle, "The foot wears a pair of special shoes, the size is too big to have no edge, running forward in the ice and snow, and the speed is as fast as archery (playing a sport)." "Did you guess that?
Yes, it is the new sports favorite of the "fire out of the circle" that accompanies the Olympic events at present - skiing. Especially by many amateurs, teenagers are sought after, almost set off a "national ice and snow fever". Imagine looking around: surrounded by mountains, surrounded by trees, with snow on the mountains, blue sky and white clouds reflecting each other, and mountains in the distance covered in fog, how picturesque is the scene. As a result, from the outdoor large ski resort to the indoor small ski training club, the crowd is booming.
In fact, skiing is not only a recreational activity, but also a high-risk sport. In 2017, the Winter Sports Management Center of the General Administration of Sport of the People's Republic of China and the China Ski Association jointly issued the "China Ski Resort Management Specifications (2017 Revised Edition)", which clearly pointed out that skiing is a "high-risk sports". Thrilling, exciting, and fast are its attractions, and it is precisely the danger. To some extent, skiing and driving nature is the same, when the speed is very fast, suddenly encounter obstacles in front of you, at this time the body due to inertia is difficult to coordinate at the first time, if the reaction is a little hesitant, too late to brake and brake, then the vehicle rushes out, light fractures, limb injuries, heavy is life-threatening, the consequences can be imagined. According to incomplete statistics, in recent years, personal injury accidents in mainland ski resorts have occurred frequently (see Table 1*), so skiers themselves must strengthen their safety awareness.
So how can skiing be enjoyable and safe?
Xiaobian believes that in addition to mastering skilled skiing skills and flexible adaptability, safety protection equipment and fast and accurate self-rescue knowledge are important guarantees. Safety protective equipment general ski resorts will provide, can be rented, large protective equipment such as ski clothes, gloves, snowshoes, choose the right size, do a good job of wearing correctly; small pieces of protective equipment is easy to be ignored, is indeed indispensable, such as helmets, can effectively reduce the risk of head injury, to avoid fatal trauma; snow mirrors, can resist strong ultraviolet rays and wind and snow, to prevent snow blindness; ski masks, can avoid nose tips, cheeks and other exposed skin frostbite; wrist pads knee pads and hip pads and other protective gear, can prevent joint injury, It plays a role in fixing and stabilizing.
Now that you're fully equipped, is it possible to embark on a wonderful snow and ice journey? One step closer, warm up! Can not be underestimated, before the ski warm-up 10-15 minutes, can promote blood circulation, muscle oxygen content increase, a short period of time to activate the body's motor function, so that the follow-up exercise more comfortable, while reducing the damage caused by exercise. For novices, it also relieves back pain and muscle cramps the next day.
In skiing, many people are most afraid of falling, afraid of people laughing at you as a torpedo. In fact, falling is also a science, the posture is very exquisite, the correct fall and effective self-help can minimize physical injury. How to say it? Common "ass squatting", holding hands on the ground, or rolling over the body are all wrong practices. When falling, there are also "five steps", one is to quickly throw away the snowball; the second is to slide along the trend; the third is to squat down instantly and lower the center of gravity; the fourth is to wrap the hands around the chest; and the fifth is to fall backwards to the side. After falling, if there is no major obstacle, be sure to get up quickly and leave to avoid collision with the rear.
When spring is in full bloom, it is time to meet three or five friends, accompanied by professionals, to the regular ski resort, embrace the ice and snow world, and enjoy the endless fun.
