First, the front of the snowmobile is covered with a hood, which can minimize the wind resistance. The rear of the snowmobile is equipped with brakes, and the body is made of fiberglass or similar materials. The steering system in the car body includes a rudder rope and a rudder rod connected with it. The athlete controls the tiller to turn left and right. Beijing 2022 Winter Olympics will add women's single snowmobile competition. At that time, the snowmobile competition will include four events, namely: four-person snowmobile, men's double snowmobile, women's double snowmobile and women's single snowmobile. The snowmobile race is held for 4 rounds, and the results are calculated by the cumulative time of 4 rounds. The one with the shortest time ranks first. The starting order of the first round is decided according to the lottery rules of the international snowmobile Federation. Starting from the second round, adjust the starting order according to the previous results.
Secondly, the helmets used by athletes and motorcyclists are opposite. The competition suit is similar to other snow sports, but it is equipped with special ice boots, and brush nails are evenly distributed at the bottom of the boots to help athletes sprint and accelerate in the starting link, and push the snowmobile 50 meters forward in about six seconds. In the four-person competition, the team members have a clear division of labor and clear positioning. The helmsman is the tactical planner of the whole team, who controls the steering of the snowmobile in the car in order to choose a good taxiing route. After reaching the finish line, the braker uses the braking device to stop the snowmobile from sliding.
Thirdly, snowmobile is the most influential event in all Winter Olympics, and the starting link is the only opportunity to exert its strength in the competition, after which everything will be driven under the control of gravity. In addition to driving skills, the driver's weight has also become a key factor in the competition. The international snowmobile Federation clearly stipulates the total weight of snowmobiles, which makes the competition more fair. If the weight is insufficient, athletes can balance the weight of the car body on the premise of ensuring safety. The snowmobile action named "F 1 on the ice" shows the athlete's strong explosive power, good balance and precise control. The snowmobile gallops along the curve, giving people a thrilling sensory experience. The 2022 Winter Olympics is looking forward to wonderful snowmobiles!
