In general, outdoor sports are physical work and climbing is no exception. Especially when climbing in winter, sometimes we need to cross the snow and climb over the snow-capped mountains. At this time, we must inevitably consume more energy on the snow slope. So, is there a way to save the snow slope with effort and safety?
1, with the flow
In order to save energy, try to follow the footprints you left before climbing the slope. Be careful not to destroy the uphill footprint when descending. Take turns to open the way and master the rhythm. Do not move too much to reduce muscle fatigue. When a tall person opens, he needs to take care of the other player's step size. The footprints kicked out by the opener must be deep. Use the heel instead of relying on the forefoot to support the weight.
2, skillfully use rest steps
Use an effective rest position while standing at a standstill: When facing the slope, support the body weight with the lower (lateral) leg. This leg should be straight and use the bone instead of the muscle to support the weight. The inner leg is bent and the inner foot is diagonally above the lateral foot – this is a natural and stable position.
3, step with breathing
Go uphill to take the route or directly. Especially in the case where one person is open and the others follow, it is relatively labor-saving to take a route with a sixty degree gradient. Sometimes it is impossible for a person to step on a full footprint when the snow is frozen on the surface, and the people behind will also benefit from it, and gradually stamp out the footprints.
4, inside the hand to pick up ice
Be sure to develop the habit of picking up the ice with the inside. The ropes on the seat belts must pass from the downhill side of the body to the players behind them to prevent them from falling over. Reversal point to hail to change hands, the rope change sides; it is necessary to make people stop before and after.
5, learn to pressure from the brake
Be sure to learn the technique of self-braking after slippery fall, otherwise don't have a snow slope with danger of slipping. The technique of self-braking is not easy to talk about here. It is advisable to find a person who will learn or refer to the books that have pictures. Learn how to put pressure on after falling in different positions (the hardest part is probably heading downhill). And, always practice in a safe place. The sooner the brakes are, the better. After the slide speed is high, it often stops when the snow is not ideal (until it hits an obstacle).
The importance of slipping is to prevent, the pace must be stable, the self protection mentioned above, the hail, and the side of the rope should be carefully observed. If the snow is very wet and sticky, it is easy to stick on the crampons and it is heavy and easy to slip. You can use the hail shank to strike the sides of the crampons; or use anti-slips (available or you can use an empty 2L Cola bottle).
6, slide with ice é• self-protection
When the slope is relatively steep and there is a danger of falling, you can use hailstone to protect yourself. The method is to force the hail vertically into the snow on the inside obliquely when the rest step is stopped (in a stable position). Then take two steps to return to the stable position of the rest step, then pull out the hail and repeat the above action. In other words, there is always a hail in the snow as a fulcrum and point of protection. Immediately during the fall, hold the ice stalk close to the snow with an empty hand, and at the same time try to move the center of gravity toward the hail hand (make the hail deeper).
In addition, when faced with steep slopes, you can use your hands to hold the squats (this is because you are too steep and face straight up).
7, to calm the emergency situation
Do not rush when there is a risk of avalanche, a steep or slow slope, or if you want to grab time. At this point, you can go straight up the slope. At this time, there is no such thing as an uphill leg or a downhill leg, but the principle of a rest step can also be used.
Automatic Telescopic Traction Rope
Traditional traction ropes can control their dogs steadily, but they are too restrictive for dogs, and dogs will resist traditional traction ropes. And it is not easy to clean up, and the damage rate is high.
The Telescopic Traction Rope is more flexible than the traditional traction rope. When the pet bursts, the telescopic traction rope has one more step than the traditional traction rope, which is to lock the traction rope, and control the length of the rope body well, and have a good response. It can be stopped in time when the dog is not harmed. The rope body is retractable, and can be stored well when not in use at ordinary times, and the loss rate is low.
