Traditional technology and what technology?

Cross-country skiing techniques are divided into traditional techniques and freestyle techniques.

Traditional technology requires athletes not to push the ice (that is, push the side) during the competition (including two feet alternately sliding, sliding at the same time, opening the pedal during sliding, sliding down and turning, etc.). ) freestyle technique does not limit the pedaling action of athletes. According to the rules, the number of participants in traditional events and freestyle events should be 50/50.

The technology of alpine skiing is complicated, but it can be roughly divided into two categories.

The first category is taxiing techniques, including straight taxiing, oblique taxiing, horizontal taxiing, crossing ups and downs, sudden steep slopes, and taxiing techniques with high, medium and low postures that should be adopted in various road sections.

The second category is turning technology. There are big gyrations and small gyrations with different speeds and amplitudes, but the general basic technology and mechanical principle are the same. The basic techniques of turning are: plowing, semi-plowing, semi-plowing swinging, shearing, pedaling, side pedaling, parallel jumping between two boards, turning supported by one or two sticks, pedaling with one foot, etc.
