It’s the best time for skiing again. Skiing is a high-consumption sport. Before skiing, you must replenish your energy and prepare well. You should bring ski suits, ski goggles, ski boots, bindings and release devices, etc. There are many precautions for skiing. Let’s take a closer look.
Precautions
1. Wear light, warm and windproof clothing and minimize exposed skin. The collar and cuffs should be fastened to prevent snow from entering. Wear a helmet and ski goggles to protect against the wind. The shoes should be close to the ankle to prevent cold wind from entering.
2. Be sure to bring sunscreen when you go skiing. Apply it every hour. The ultraviolet rays on the ski field are several times stronger than usual. If you don’t pay attention, you will definitely be tanned. In addition, sunscreen should be specially designed for winter, which can have a certain frostbite effect.

5. Go to the ski resort with at least 3 people. When going to a more remote ski slope, someone should go with you in case of an accident, no one will know.
Skiing Equipment
1. Ski Suit
Ski suits are generally divided into competition ski suits and travel ski suits. Competition ski suits are designed according to the characteristics of competitive competitions, focusing on improving sports performance. Travel ski suits are mainly warm, beautiful, practical and comfortable. The color of the ski suit is very bright, which is not only for beauty, but also for safety. If you go alpine skiing, especially steep alpine skiing, far away from the built ski field, it is easy to cause avalanches or get lost. In this case, the bright color of the ski suit is convenient for rescue.
2. Ski Goggles
Ski goggles are divided into alpine goggles, freestyle goggles, cross-country goggles, and ski jumping goggles. On the snow, the light reflected by the sun is very strong. In addition, the wind stimulates the eyes a lot when skiing, so ski goggles are needed to protect the skier’s eyes.
3. Ski Boots
Ski boots are divided into alpine boots, cross-country boots, ski jumping boots, and snowboard boots. Alpine boots are generally made up of two parts: the outer layer is made of plastic or ABS injection molding, which is not easily deformed. The inner layer is made of chemical fiber and warm material. The joint angle and the fatness of the shoes can be adjusted.
4. Skis
Skis are generally divided into cross-country biathlon skis, ski jumping skis, freestyle skis, alpine skis, and single skis.
5. Bindings and Release Devices
Bindings, also known as release devices, are important links that connect skis to ski boots. They play a key role in the skier’s safety.
6. Ski Poles
Ski poles are used to support the forward movement, control balance, guide direction, and support the body when skiing. Ski poles are essential equipment for skiers to control the center.
Suitable People for Skiing
In terms of physical condition, young people are more suitable for skiing. People in their forties and fifties are not very suitable for skiing, because when people reach middle age, their ligaments become fragile and skiing is easy to injure the joints and ligaments. This is especially true for middle-aged people with less exercise on weekdays. In addition, it takes longer for middle-aged people to recover from injuries.
