How much do you know about skiing safety precautions？

You need to know before skiing

warm up

"The temperature in the ski resort is low, and the skier’s body is extremely stiff. If the joint muscles can’t move, it is easy to get hurt. It is suggested that beginners should do enough warm-up activities before going on the snowy road, especially the joints such as hip, knee, ankle and wrist. "

The doctor said that the purpose of preparation activities is to promote blood circulation through basic movements, so as to reduce the viscosity of muscles, enhance muscle strength, increase the flexibility of joints, improve the excitability of the central nervous system and the functions of various organ systems of the body, and then make the movements more coordinated and accurate.

protective appliance

As a beginner, the most important thing is to ensure your own safety before skiing. Wear a helmet of appropriate size, hip pads and knee pads. You should wear protective gear to protect yourself when skiing, regardless of your skiing level.

keep warm

Skiing is a sport in a cold environment, so heat preservation is particularly important, and people are prone to frostbite accidents when exposed to low temperature for a long time. According to the survey report, not paying attention to keeping warm and warming up is the main cause of injuries in the snow field. In the low temperature environment, if the body is cold and stiff, it is easy to fall down, and if there is no heat supplement for a long time, it will be frostbitten. You can take some drugs with you, such as nitrofurazone hydrocortisone lotion and 741 frostbite cream. Don’t learn to rub frostbitten parts with snow in film and television dramas. It is best to soak them in warm water and then go to the hospital for examination and treatment.

equipment

① Clothes: The color should be bright or have a big contrast with the snow surface, so as to be easy to identify and avoid collision. In addition, you should prepare an extra winter coat and two underwear. When the clothes are wet by snow or sweat, you can change them in time to prevent colds.

② Ski goggles: Due to the strong sunlight reflection in the snow, you must wear colored glasses to protect your eyes. It is recommended to wear resin glasses with frames as much as possible, and the lens color is better in yellow or brown.

3 Helmets, gloves and face protection: For safety reasons, helmets must be worn. Skiing is fast and windy, so warm gloves against wind are also essential. You can put on your face first and then your helmet. In addition, the winter weather is generally dry and windy, and face protection can effectively protect facial skin.

4 socks: It is best to wear ski socks when skiing, and longer wool socks are the best. Because ski boots are all high, socks are too low, and the skin is in direct contact with the inner boots of snowshoes, which is easy to cause swelling and pain due to friction. It’s best to prepare two or three pairs of socks. Beginners often fall down, and snow can easily get into shoes and wet their feet. At this time, you need spare socks.

⑤ Water Cup: Free boiled water is usually provided at the rest place of the snow field. Bring a water cup to quench your thirst and warm yourself up.

ultraviolet ray

It is cold and dry in winter, and the skin loses water quickly in this climate condition. In addition, the skin is stimulated by the relatively high-speed cold wind formed during skiing and burned by the strong ultraviolet rays reflected from the snow, which are the main causes of skin injury. In order to prevent the loss of water and the skin from being burned by ultraviolet rays, some oily skin care products with the function of preventing the loss of water can be selected, and then a sunscreen cream with good anti-ultraviolet effect and water resistance can be applied to the skin. Sunscreen can only be effective for a short time, so it should be applied to the exposed skin once every once in a while (usually 2 hours). You must not apply sunscreen because it is cloudy, because the ultraviolet rays are still very strong on cloudy days.

partner

It’s best not to go skiing alone, so as to avoid accidents that no one knows and no one rescues. Besides, you must tell your family and friends where you are going skiing and when you will be back. Remember not to leave yourself alone and follow group activities.

wrestling

Learning the correct falling posture can try to avoid serious injuries! Sit down to the left or right. Never sit directly behind, and you can’t sit on the ground with your hips directly behind. Put your hands on your sides to avoid being crushed by your hips. Don’t support the ground with your palms. After the buttocks touch the ground, the steel edge of the snowboard will also scratch the snow to cause resistance and prevent sliding. If you fall down out of control during taxiing, you should immediately lower your center of gravity, sit back, and don’t struggle at will. You can lift your limbs, bend over and let them fall, avoid falling head down, and absolutely avoid tumbling.

diet

Skiing is a very physical exercise. The calorie storage capacity of human body is generally 1,500-2,000. Outdoor skiing consumes calories very quickly, generally consuming 600 calories per hour, which means that the calories will be exhausted in two or three hours at most.

Moreover, it is not advisable to eat too much before skiing, otherwise the burden on the stomach during exercise will be too large, which will easily lead to nausea and vomiting. Choose a carbohydrate-rich food, rice or pasta, with vegetables and meat, and use snacks to supplement calories during skiing, such as chocolate, beef jerky, Snickers, walnuts, peanuts and other nuts.
