About board equipment "hardness"

"The hardness of the snowboard"

Some people sometimes ask when they choose a snowboard, what hardness of the snowboard is used when playing tricks, what hardness is used when sliding, and what hardness skis are used when carving. I think there is a misunderstanding here, that is, hardness and elasticity are two indicators, but we confuse it. In fact, the correct description should be based on the choice of play flexibility, choose hardness and length based on weight, according to height and gameplay to adjust the length of the range.

Elasticity and hardness are originally two different indicators. The hardness is marked with the standard, so the manufacturer will mark the hardness value, but the elasticity does not have a labeling standard and can only rely on actual experience. However, more and more manufacturers are now not marking the specific value of hardness, but give a range of hardness, such as Burton, the new are no longer labeled hardness, and only a bar graph to indicate the hardness range. And the hardness of the veneer is not evenly distributed over the entire length. For pure park-type snowboards, the headboards have the same hardness, but they are slightly more Microsoft than the waist stiffness. The purpose of the design is to bring about better controllability and technical flexibility. For directional or directional or unidirectional gliding class snowboards, the hardness of the head to the end of the board will vary. The board is slightly softer, the waist is the hardest, and the board tail is slightly stiffer than the board head and is slightly softer than the board waist. The purpose of this design is to bring the cutting ability of the front end and the better elastic performance of the tail end. Of course, the difference between this is usually only 0.5~1. This difference in hardness can also reduce the detuning vibration and the suppression of jitter of some board heads and tails. The resulting resonance (in fact, more of these vibrations are absorbed and suppressed by the damping system).

In addition, the hardness of the new veneer requires a period of time before it can be fully “released”. In other words, the new plate has a running-in and release process. After the completion of the process, the hardness of the plate head and tail will be lower than that of the new plate. The new board is a little softer, but the elasticity will be more resilient than the new board. But there are pre-breaking technologies like Burton. The snowboard's elasticity is fully released before the snowboard leaves the factory. Then the new snowboard eliminates the need for running-in to achieve optimal use.

Deformation elasticity and hardness of these two indicators, in accordance with the normal situation is consistent with the relationship, in general, the hardness of the deformation of elasticity is strong, the hardness of the deformation of the elasticity will be slightly weaker, but the elasticity of the snowboard performance is not necessarily Now.

For example, some JIB type snowboards used for masts are deliberately designed to have very soft hardness and elasticity. The purpose is to make it easier to pull up and bouncing up when props, but not on irons. Too much elastic feedback vibration (like a spring-like repetition) makes the board more stable when placed on the track (typically like Stepchild's JIB, which is very characteristically elastic).

However, some snowboards are not very hard but they are very elastic. They are designed to make Ollie and Nollie easier and more controllable in the park terrain and props (typically like Lobster's Park, very bullets, but not hard ).

Some snowboards are very hard, but their elasticity is also very strong. This type of snowboard is generally used in half-pipe projects and large platforms, in order to achieve higher heights at high speeds, and stable landing. And maneuverability (typically like Burton's Custom X).

Some snowboards are very hard, but the elasticity is very general and even poor. Such skis are generally used in racing races and cross-country races. The purpose is to have better stability and vibration absorption in high-speed taxiing. Control ability, can fully absorb the rebound from the bottom of the board when crossing the wave in the Cross game, let the snowboard move closer to the ground faster than chasing the track, instead of being bombed into the air causing time-waving and wasting time. (Sometimes someone will ask me if I'm a purely skating snowboard. If a chase board can take into account the diving platform, tricks, wild snow, etc., I will firmly say that no. It would be too wasteful to spend thousands of chases on the board to play tricks. Ha ha.)

Powder snow and rotten snow also need to consider different flexibility and hardness of the snow board, deep powder inside to use a slightly softer hardness, good elasticity of the snow board, it is easier to pull up to provide more buoyancy and use the soft support to fly (Comparatively with Camale Toe like Bataleon). In Rotten Snow, it is necessary to use snowboards with moderate hardness and elasticity, so as to better cut harder snow layers and have more fun. So Powder type snowboards are not very hard. The hard snowboard hardness of Hoho Snow is not fun. Moderate hardness, coupled with the shape of wild snow plus a dovetail, this wild snowboard will have the feeling of motorboats breaking waves.

The elastic configuration of the snowboard is more from the selection of the core of the snowboard, with the energy transfer of the glass fiber sandwich, and some also take into account the impact of the shock absorption layer on the elasticity of the core. Each manufacturer has its own unique formula and design. Therefore, judging the stiffness and elasticity of the snowboard is not comprehensive even if it is based on the specific value of hardness. Specific performance still depends on personally to try to evaluate. The hardness standards of snowboards are not simply represented by numerical values. In different brands and even the same brand of different types of snowboards with the same hardness, the performance of actual hardness is slightly different. The same hardness and actual difference of the screed are related to the specific configuration of the snowboard. For example, the shape of the board, the edge of the board, and the different damping systems all affect the actual hardness. The difference in hardness between different brands of snowboards with the same hardness is more related to the type of plate. For example, Bataleon's TBT plate type technology has a slight effect on the hardness of the mounting area of ​​the plate head and tail holder, and those thickened and fixed. The technology of positioning or cutting the cores at the end of the board, such as Nitro's WHILPLASH and Reflex core technology, and the GNU's pickle asymmetric technology, all have an effect on hardness.

"Snow shoes hardness and support"

Selecting snowshoes is also a real headache, especially when it comes to the size of the shoe size. The best way to choose the size of snowshoes is to wear the thick socks and anchors worn on skis and try them on your own. If you do not discuss shoe size today, discuss hardness.

Some manufacturers of snowshoe hardness are clearly marked, and most manufacturers only provide the application scope of a snowshoe, and do not specifically mark the hardness. It will not explain the specific support structure. However, our freestyle snowboarding (commonly referred to as soft shoes) is not so different from the impact of veneer snowshoes (commonly known as hard shoes) in terms of hardness. Snow shoes between various manufacturers of the same type from the performance point of view, the gap will not be particularly large.

The hardness of snow shoes is also related to gameplay, but it still depends on the support structure configuration of snow shoes.

In general, playing patterns, in order to ensure the ankle, the flexibility of the ankle and improve fault tolerance and comfort, to choose a slightly softer, slightly lighter weight, support structure designed for the design of snow shoes, soft soles Landing will be very comfortable. In this sense, skateboarders will experience a deep feeling. In the process of pulling and kicking the board, the ankle must be able to rotate flexibly to complete the action quickly in a short time. The skillful gameplay of the veneers is also the same, and many need to use the ankle, but snowboarding shoes have to provide enough support to maintain the slide required. Therefore, the design of the snow shoe support will take into consideration the ergonomic relationship between the fit of the calf part and the flexibility of the ankle part and between. The elastic performance of the pattern snowshoe is very elastic and flexible, but the feedback is not overly sensitive. Responsiveness means that when you are struggling, snowshoes can transfer this awareness to the fixtures and skis very quickly and quickly. Feedback is not overly sensitive. It means that fault tolerance is very high. Even if there is a slight flaw, it will not be excessively transmitted back to the body and directly affect the posture of the body. This error can make the body respond quickly and correct the movement. . However, in the snow-covered shoes, there is no shortage of extraordinarily high hardness, such as NW's Prophecy, a snow shoe with a hardness of 9. This kind of shoes is designed for the kind of energy explosion type of Pro. There is a carbon fiber reinforced support in the ankle part, the structure of the calf part fits closely, and the snow shoes are very close to the feet. However, the overall design of the support is still a pattern. Instead of fixing the ankles of the ankle, it provides enough flexibility and flexibility to allow this part to be flexible.

The versatile style of snow shoes, for this all-round concept, there is a bit of misunderstanding, some people think that omnipotence is all can not play anything to play, but nothing to play with fine. In fact, snowshoe this equipment, unlike the snowboard, we can have a few snowboards for different gameplay, every time you want to play what to change. Snow shoes sometimes take a few pairs of shoes to go back and forth in the snowfield. A good all-around shoe, in fact, in the platform and the all terrain park and Freeride, even in the Cross inside, wild snow inside is very necessary. The big platform requires the support of snowshoes to be strong enough so that it is safe enough to land and take off, but the platform also contains skillful movements. Snowshoes are too stiff and inflexible, but they are more vulnerable to injury. All-terrain parks and FR, Cross, wild snow outside the road, these games are contained in the composition of the starting and landing, there are places where skills are expressed, then we must take into account snowshoeing support and flexibility. A good all-around snow shoe can provide both of these requirements, and a good all-around snow shoe is not necessarily a medium hardness, sometimes the hardness will be very large, such as Burton's Driver X, the hardness is 10, but it is not tired to wear, this hardness brings excellent support and good flexibility, but its flexibility is also designed to be very sophisticated, able to provide sufficient flexibility and stability under strong explosive power , More security, because of these exquisite designs, so this all-around models snow shoes prices are also high.

Purely skating snow shoes, especially the Freecarve's soft shoes, are basically nothing to choose from, and at this time you will always want to use hard shoes to play. If you are purely gliding and you want to use soft shoes, then you can only use the Freeride type of snow shoes to “get alive.” This kind of livelihood is enough for our average player. Snow shoes capable of FC must be strong enough to support, and the response and feedback should be very sensitive. This provides delicate control and sufficient safety in high-speed corners. Because it is basically in the road, and does not play skills, soft shoes have no advantage in this place. There is also a type of mountain skiing and Big mountain that focus on off-road taxiing, but also use supported FR snowshoes or all-around snowshoes, and there is a higher demand for snowshoes outsole. Can provide a good climbing and grasping ability, but also can not be excessively rigid on the support, so that on the rugged road outside the road can go very far and not tired, climbing on the ice can get enough friction force.

"The hardness of the fixture"

The choice of fastener hardness and snow shoes is actually like. Fixator classification is not as delicate as snowboard classification, or the brand and type of domestic fixators have not yet reached a clear and specific classification like snowboards. With the development of science and technology and the promotion of sports, there may be more definite grading in the future. At present, the fixtures on the market are basically divided into pattern models and all-round models. At most, the performance of FR is biased on this basis, but there are no special fixtures for FR models and FC models.

The stylus holder, in fact, is the pursuit of a flick of the feeling, as well as a good shock absorber system, the hardness is not too large or the hardness can be adjusted or adaptive grade (Rome's TARGA is very typical self-adaptive adjustment of the backplane hardness feedback, but Targa is a versatile style that is not lightweight enough. This configuration has high fault tolerance, good compatibility, strong flexibility of the foot joints, and the ability to follow the movements necessary for deformation. The effect of buffer transfer is transmitted when the torque is transmitted (unlike high hardness, it is transmitted at once, without A process of accumulation is a bit like a clockwork. The effect of the clockwork is more conducive to the transmission of torsion when it is twisted. It is more controlled, it is easier to force, and it is easier to control. The soft nature also improves the shock absorption. Effect. However, in the case of high speed and large centrifugal force, the supporting force is insufficient, the reaction is slow, and the deformation is too large to affect the maintenance of the action at a high speed or a large force. Therefore, the pattern holder is not suitable for Freeride gameplay.

All-around retainers, most of which are currently available on the market, are all fixtures for all-around models. They are also suitable for all-terrain parks, platforms, half-pipes and other types of games. This type of fixture has been designed with a stronger support structure, more sensitive feedback, more direct force transmission, and better resilience. These designs are designed to increase the ability to withstand, especially the kind of energy that can withstand sudden bursts of energy. Conduction. With all-around play tricks, the power and skill requirements of the skater are all higher. But the all-around model is like an all-around snow shoe. It is not totally impossible but it is truly all-round. Outside the road, the park is all terrain, wild snow chases the road, and basically all the terrain, you can eat with all-around money. Of course, we must match with the snowboard of our choice.

An all-around gliding fixer or FR fixer has to mention a brand that is Flow, Flow has a very cheap fast wear fixer, there is a very versatile fast wear fixer, and there are SP, SP dared to cooperate with Catek to launch the all-around FR fast-wear fixer. The SP also owns several fast-wear fasteners for all-around models. So in the field of Freeride retainers, fast wear retainers accounted for a large share, there is also a brand that has to be mentioned is Ride, its all-round style and FR styles are the most cost-effective retainers in the eyes of foreigners. But Ride feels at home in the middle of the low-end products, because I think there is no full series of introduction and comprehensive assessment. The FR's retainer, coupled with the snowshoe, will provide better support. It will transmit power more directly to the skis during high-speed taxiing, and provide a strong support structure to maintain posture, protecting the ankle and ankle parts. It will not produce excessive deformation, and it will play the most critical support and conduction under high speed or large centrifugal acceleration, as well as the role of safety protection. However, this type of fixture is too sensitive, has poor fault-tolerance to the operation, basically has no response and time for correcting errors, and conductability is too direct. It has high requirements for the accuracy of the technical posture, and the support structure also causes inability to Provide flexible space for the use of controlled force, to reverse the deformation of the fixture, which is why Freeride's equipment is not suitable for novices or tricks.

Freecarve fixtures, only Catek once had a soft shoe FC fixture in the world, short-lived, because sales and subsequent lawsuits, has become a yellow flower yesterday, or a collection. So for the soft shoes carved, can only find a Freeride fixture to use, but for the FR fixture is enough for us to play, and then pursue the effect, then use hard shoes + racing metal fixture Well, soft shoes don't have any advantage in FC, and hard shoes are completely two levels.

There is also a single mention of carbon fiber holders. Some carbon fiber holders are not necessarily the most suitable for gliding, especially for Freecarve. Because of the nature of carbon fiber, the sensitivity is high and the conductivity is accurate, but if it is simple The carbon fiber backsheet will look brittle. In the case of large support forces and momentary stress (inch strength), the pure carbon fiber backsheet will not be strong enough. Therefore, carbon fiber backboard holders are generally all-round models, or most of the models, pure gliding models are not available (a lot of platinum choose the carbon fiber fixture Union's Charger also does not belong to pure gliding models, but also all-around models, but it is The results of competitive games are the best, but in competitive games, durability is not taken into account, and it is enough to complete a lap, so there are also many people who have played with Charger and MC. Here to mention Nitro's Machine and Darke's PODIUM FF, they all take into account the pure carbon fiber hard and brittle spear and shield, so these two carbon fiber backplanes are either added material, or use ABS first The support structure is well done, which greatly improves the durability.
