Tipuri de snowboard

2010-12-12T18:50:00.002Z

Chiar daca industria snowboardingului este intr-o mare si rapida crestere, pana in prezent au fost concepute 3 tipuri de placi, si anume : FREESTYLE (Park/Pipe) ; FREERIDE (All Mountain) si ALPINE (Carving/Race). Fiecare placa are o tehnica de constructie unica in functie de material, forma, flexibilitate si marime. De ex : Nu vei folosi o placa carving pentru sarituri, acrobatii si nici una de freestyle pentru viteza ... s.a.m.d.

Freestyle Snowboard - placa pentru acrobatii

Este mai lata , mai stabila si mai usor de controlat. De asemenea, este mai scurta in comparatie cu placa de freeride sau carving, mai usoara, mai moale si mai flexibila. Aceste placi sunt construite pentru air , spins, grabs si riding fakie, mai sunt folosite pentru Jib, fun box, half pipe, rails, de diferite nivele de dificultate, forme si lungimi. Placa este simetrica nose - tail cu legaturi si boots soft. Pozitia cea mai utilizata in freestyle se numeste duck foot (-9 ° / +12 °).
Placa recomandata incepatorilor !

Freeride Snowboard - placa pentru alunecare "la liber"

Este cea mai comuna si cea mai usor accesibila in snowboarding. Se poate folosii atat pe partiile amenajate, snow park-uri sau padure/munte. O deosebim de cea de freestyle, fiind mai lunga, mai rigida , iar tail-ul placii nu este atat de curbat in comparatie cu nose-ul. Tail-ul poate sa fie "tesit" sau "coada de randunica" pentru a scoate mai usor nose-ul din zapada. Cel mai bine se comporta pe zapada afanata.
Placa recomandata tuturor practicantilor !

Alpine Snowboard - placa pentru viteza si viraje taiate

Este foarte asemanatoare cu structura unui ski. Configurata pentru a avea foarte buna stabilitate la viteza, este mai lunga, mai ingusta si rigida. Similare cu placile de freeride, sunt facute pentru a merge intr-o singura directie. Se folosesc boots hard asemanatori cu claparii de ski.
Placa nu este recomandata incepatorilor !

Step into the Future of Graffiti Art >>> Light Graffiti

2010-12-05T13:46:00.002Z

Light graffiti is a photographic technique in which exposures are made usually at night or in a darkened room by moving a hand-held light source or by moving the camera. In many cases the light source itself does not have to appear in the image. The term light painting also encompasses images lit from outside the frame with hand-held light sources. In this post I’m showcasing some excellent light graffiti pictures.

Recommended diet for water-sports athletes

2010-07-28T02:22:00.002+01:00

For a good day of surfing , to catch more waves we need to eat healthy and energetic food. The important thing is to consume the food accordind to nutritional needs of each athlete , depending on their physical activity , weight , height , length of training , age , etc... I have concluded that asking other athletes , studying nutrition forums and nutritions websites dedicated athletes and even experimenting on my own body .

2h BEFORE SURFING , one must ingest foods rich in carbohydrates , 300kcal , approximately. Carbohydrates increases the stok of energy for the body in the form of glycogen in the muscles. Eat : bread , fruits , cereals , crackers or cereals bars. The rate of glycogen resynthesis seems to be quicker immediately and in the first 2h after exercise.
Right after surfing it is recommended to drink plenty of liquids ( water , juice , gatorade ) and a small amount of carbohydrates.

2h AFTER SURFING : a balanced meal containing proteins. The proteins are responsible for construction and performance the next day. Eat : lean meat , beans , cheese and milk.

One of the most popular post-surf snack preferences is beer !

For more information consult a nutritionist !

Waimea Bay, Hawaii

2010-05-25T02:28:00.003+01:00

Waimea Bay is located in Haleiwa on the North Shore of O‘ahu in the Hawaiian Islands at the mouth of the Waimea River. Waimea Valley extends behind Waimea Bay. Waimea means "Red Water" in Hawaiian.

In winter, Waimea and other North Shore locations such as Pipeline and Sunset Beach host a number of surfing contests because of the large waves found here. These waves are created by winter storms in the North Pacific, and their arrival on O‘ahu's North Shore are typically forecast accurately several days in advance. In summer, Waimea typically has clear and calm water.
