1. Prepare for skiing with children: ski suits
The real ski suit includes many pieces, the thick ski jackets and ski pants that people usually see are just some of them, in addition, it also includes ski-specific underwear, gloves, socks and hats.
2. Prepare for skiing with children: big snowboard goggles
The snow is so bright that it affects vision to some extent. Clear snowboard goggles can protect children's delicate eyes from cold wind and UV rays.
Choose oversized snowboard goggles that are fully enclosed and fit snugly against your child's face. It is important to note that children's nose bridges are generally relatively low, which requires special nose pads to raise the nose bridge so that it can fit properly.
3. Skiing with children needs to be prepared: ski helmets
The head of a child is a very fragile part. If the child falls at a certain speed while skiing, it will easily hit the head due to inertia. Without the protection of the helmet, the consequences will be disastrous. It is best for parents to choose a helmet that covers the ears and has a buckle on the outside to tie the straps.
The things you need to prepare for skiing with children are basically the same as for adults.
Warm hats, gloves, and the inner layer of clothing should be warm and breathable. If you rent ski equipment, some snow boots are very wet, so you can bring an extra pair of socks.
Skis, shoes, helmets (it is recommended that children must wear helmets when skiing) and other skiing equipment can be rented at the ski resort. Prepare some cash, and a deposit is required for ski rentals.
The food and beverage consumption in the ski resort is relatively high. You can prepare convenient lunches and snacks. You don’t need too much. You should not eat too much for skiing. In addition, you can bring a kettle. The ski resorts generally have free hot water.
Skiing should pay attention to:
Skiing is a dynamic and exciting sport. Beginners should first learn basic skiing skills and ask an experienced ski instructor to give you systematic training.
When beginners choose a ski resort, the slope should not be too steep, about 6 degrees is the best, the ski slope should be wide, about 50 meters, and there must be a riding ropeway to transport skiers (traction ropeway is not conducive to skiers resting), The quality of the snow is better, and it is very important for beginners to have a large ski machine to trim and maintain the snow surface.
In terms of time arrangement, the time for learning skiing should not be less than 3 days. During this period, we mainly learn how to use alpine ski equipment; three basic downhill techniques, including straight downhill, inclined downhill, and plow downhill; two turning techniques , refers to the plough turning technology and the plough swing turning technology.
Practice these techniques repeatedly on the primary piste, and strive to master the essentials in practice. You must not just play straight downhill for a long time to enjoy and stimulate. Although straight downhill is very fun, no matter how long you play, your level will not improve too much , you should spend most of your time learning the turning technique, because it is the essence of skiing.
