Ski Turn - Turning Advanced

Turning advanced technology

(1) Semi-ploughing turn

Semi-plough-type turning is a method for turning a snowboard in a half-shaped figure. One of the two snowboards is a straight-sliding down plate type, and the other is a plow-type downhill plate type. A snowboard with a straight downhill type is generally called a driven plate, and a snowboard with a plow type downhill type is called a active plate. When turning, move the weight to the active plate, pressurize it, and turn the blade.

Semi-plough-type turning is the basis of the semi-plough type continuous turning, the center of technology. Through the practice of semi-plough-type turning, we mainly grasp the movement of the center of gravity, the order of exertion, the direction in which the skis are pulled out, and the movement of the standing edge. Here, the semi-plough-type turning is not described in detail, and the essentials, practice methods, etc. refer to the semi-plough type continuous turning.

(2) Semi-plough type continuous turning

Semi-plough type continuous turns can also be thought of as containing plow-style continuous turns. The plough type, semi-plough type continuous turning is understood as follows:

Plow-type continuous turning: plow board type → double board parallel → plow board type → double board parallel...

Semi-plough type continuous turning: semi-plough type plate → double plate parallel → semi-plough type plate → double plate parallel...

In the semi-plough type continuous turning, it can also be divided into a semi-plough type continuous turn taken out from the side plate (mountain side plate) and a continuous turn taken out from the side plate (mountain side plate). Please refer to the above figure for the difference and difference between the two methods of delivery.

The continuous turning of the side panel of the mountain is carried out by turning the outer plate of the turn, so that it can directly enter the adjustment stage of turning, and the output of the semi-plough type action is the beginning of the initiation stage. The inner leg closing action is performed during the adjustment phase of turning. Since the turning action of the mountain side panel is to open the snowboard on the outer side of the next turn, the movement of the weight is in the left and right direction, so it is easy to slip off the snowboard during the turn adjustment stage. The side boards of the mountain are easy to be controlled for speed by turning and the scope of use is also wider. Since the beginning of the turn is the outer snowboard, it is also easier to make a smooth turn. However, the turn adjustment phase is longer until the turn is over.

The continuous turning of the side plate of the valley is carried out by turning the inner plate of the turn and using the reaction of snow to close the leg, and the double plate of the side plate enters the adjustment stage of turning at the same time. When the skis are pulled out, they are in the preparation phase of a turn, and the legs are in the initial phase of the turn. Since the lateral side plate pulls out a continuous turning motion, the outer plate sliding trajectory of the next turn does not change, so that the outer plate vertical blade can be performed more quickly. The retraction of the snowboard is closer to the sliding direction of the outer panel, so that the movement of the weight is in the front-rear direction, making it easy to adjust the turning. Because of the characteristics of the popping board, it is determined that this method is more suitable for steep slopes and small turns.

The above list is a comparison of the different points of side-valley cut-out and side-hill cut-out in semi-plough type continuous turning.

The semi-plough type continuous turning technology is a very important turning technology. Through the learning of this technology, you can learn how to use different skis in different situations, and open and retract, change blades, move the weight, change the rhythm of the center of gravity, and turn. When the body posture adjustment and so on. The semi-plough type continuous turning is used in mid-slope and steep slopes, and can be used flexibly in high and medium speeds. The adaptability to snow quality is also very strong.
