Snowboarding in Kyrgyzstan is gaining popularity, but with this comes an increased risk of injury, especially for beginners. Professional instructors offer several recommendations for a safe start:
Trust the specialists. Learning without the help of a professional can lead to the reinforcement of incorrect skills and injuries. It is best to start training with a certified instructor.
Choosing equipment. Regular jeans and sweatshirts get wet quickly and do not protect against the cold. It is recommended to use special membrane clothing. Additionally, bright clothing will help you be more visible to other snowboarders and skiers.
Proper technique. Pay attention to the basic stance: your knees should be slightly bent for cushioning. It is important to remember: when falling, do not extend your arms straight — this can lead to wrist fractures.
Gradual learning. Do not rush to conquer difficult slopes or snow parks. Complex elements should only be mastered after confidently mastering basic turns and braking.
By following these simple recommendations, you will be able to enjoy snowboarding and have fun on the slopes without unnecessary visits to the doctor.
