Can I ski when the maximum temperature is above zero?

Different situations will occur when skis slide on snow with different textures. When the snow is hard, the friction becomes smaller, and the speed of snowboarding is faster. It is difficult for beginners to control their body balance and fall easily. When the snow is soft, the friction increases and the sliding speed is slow, which is not conducive to skiers to turn sharply or accelerate.

The hardness of snow is closely related to temperature. When the temperature is high, the surface of snow will gradually melt under the action of sunlight and the constant rotation of snowboards, and the humidity of snow will increase and then become soft.

Know the weather in detail before skiing;

Before preparing for skiing, you should know the weather conditions in the ski resort within 48 hours in detail and choose the play time according to the weather changes. If you don't pay attention to the weather forecast when skiing, skiers should also calmly deal with bad weather such as strong winds and heavy snow.

A snowstorm in the mountainous area may change the situation of the site in an instant. Skiers should not be overly superstitious about their skills, but should stop moving in time and take refuge in areas with relatively flat mountains. However, the time to avoid danger in mountainous areas should generally not exceed 1 hour, otherwise the human body may be frostbitten, and communication equipment should be used to send out distress signals in time.
