title-safety

XNUMX. XNUMX.Did you choose the right equipment for you?

● Let's choose after having the staff of the shop and friends who are familiar with snowboarding tell us the features and performance of the product.
XNUMX. XNUMX.Wear snowboard wear and don't forget your gloves, hats and goggles! !!

● Let's wear snowboard wear properly and slip even on a warm day.Gloves, hats, and goggles are allies that protect your body when you fall.
XNUMX. XNUMX.Leash code is a safety code

● If the board flows on the slope and hits a person, there is a danger of an unexpected big accident.Attach a leash cord to your legs and arms, not only when you are slipping, but also when you move with the board in your hand.
● When you get on the board, attach the leash cord first, and when you take it off, remove it last.This alone can prevent accidents.

XNUMX.Checking the equipment before slipping is very important

● Don't panic if you go to the slopes.Be sure to check the shells before slipping.Do you also have a screwdriver, wrench and spare screws?
● Is it OK to adjust the size of the binding, the mounting angle to the board, and the front and back width?Are the screws loose?
● Be careful not to damage the strap or high back.
● Did you attach the leash cord to the board or binding?
● Is it okay to tighten the boots?
● Are you able to adjust the edges of the board, darling (cutting corners), and tuning?
● If you apply wax to the sole properly, it will be slippery.
● It is important to check the equipment, so let's aim for a "perfect check" by having the shop staff and school teachers teach you more and more.
XNUMX. Let's School !!

● The best way to slide safely is to improve quickly.The shortest distance to improve is to enter school.You can also learn the correct rules and manners.

6.Follow the rules of the slopes

● The slopes are not for one person.In order for everyone to enjoy themselves, it is essential to follow the rules of each ski resort.
● When skiing, you must follow the instructions of the ski resort staff and patrols and ski in the designated place.
● "Break" is not allowed in the middle of the slope.If you fall, get up as soon as possible and move immediately to a safe place that will not bother other people.
● When placing the board on the slopes, be careful not to let it flow.Make it a habit to keep the binding down on the snow.It is safe to put the leash cord on a tree, etc.
● Do not throw empty cans, cigarettes, or garbage out of the designated place (naturally).In order to enjoy snowboarding in nature, it is very important to protect nature.
● The rules differ depending on the ski resort and slope.If you follow the rules, you won't bother other people.

XNUMX.Keep an eye on your child.

● Parents should always keep an eye on children, especially if they are junior high school students or younger.Is it possible to be dangerous if you are not careful enough? !!

XNUMX.Let's slide at a safe speed.

● There is no speed violation on the snowboard, but if you run away at a speed that you can't control, it's very dangerous.Don't be overconfident in your strength and slip "speed is low".
● Always pay attention to the movements of snowboarders and skiers around you, and make sure that you are safe before you get into the habit of skiing.

XNUMX.Be careful of reverse edge falls! !!

● On a gentle slope, the edge on the valley side suddenly gets caught and falls down suddenly, that is the reverse edge fall.Be especially careful for beginners.If you hit your head, it's super dangerous! !!
● It is basic to sit down on the edge of the mountain side, lower the center of gravity, and slide.If you are about to fall, it is safer to curl your back as if crouching and then sit down and fall.How to fall well, let's slide after mastering.

XNUMX.Snowboarding in the best physical condition.

● Snowboarding on an unreasonable schedule is the beginning of danger.Don't get sick, sleep deprived, or take alcohol or medicine.
● Slip in the best conditions with plenty of space.No matter how much fun you have, don't forget to rest when you get tired.

XNUMX.After slipping, check the equipment.

● Checking after slipping is also a big point to always enjoy skiing.
● Wipe the board thoroughly with a dry cloth to prevent the edges and bindings from rusting.Applying wax and storing it is effective not only for rust but also for preventing oxidation of the sole (sliding) surface of the board.
● Let's dry the boots properly.
● Check that the board, binding, and boots are not damaged or the screws are not dropped!It's also a good idea to have them checked at the store where you bought them.
