Umlando we-snowboard
Ukushaywa okukhulu edolobheni elincane laseMuskegon ePoppen, umlayezo we-Snurfer wasakazeka ngokushesha, kuhlanganise nabasebenzi abathile enkampanini manje ebizwa ngokuthi iBrunswick. Bezwa ngakho, bangena emsebenzini bafaka isicelo selayisensi. Bathengise ama-Snurfers angaphezu kuka-500.000 ngo-1966-unyaka ngemva kokuba u-Poppen akhe i-prototype yokuqala-kanye nama-Snurfers angaba yisigidi kule minyaka eyishumi ezayo.
Njengama-skateboards enkathi, i-Snurfer kwakuyithoyizi elingabizi elakhelwe izingane. Kodwa impumelelo ye-Snurfer yazala imiqhudelwano yesifunda futhi ekugcineni kazwelonke, yaheha abantu ababezongenisa i-snowboarding yesimanje.
Izimbangi zakuqala zihlanganisa uTom Sims noJake Burton, abazoqhubeka nokuqala izinkampani eziphumelele ngendlela emangalisayo nezibongo zabo. Abanye ababili abaqhudelana nabo, uDimitrije Milovich noMike Olson, bazoqala uWinterstick kanye ne-GNU.
Lawa maphayona akha amabhizinisi awo ngeminyaka yawo-80. Maphakathi nawo-80, izindawo zokungcebeleka ezimbalwa kuphela ezazivumela i-snowboarding. Ngenhlanhla, ama-snowboarders amukelwa ezindaweni eziningi zokungcebeleka ekuqaleni kwawo-90s.
Ngawo-90s, idizayini ye-snowboard yayifana nemiklamo ye-ski: wonke amabhodi ayene-camber yendabuko kanye nemiphetho eqondile.
Ekuqaleni, i-Mervin Manufacturing, ibhrendi eyakha amabhodi e-Lib Tech kanye ne-GNU, yethule izinguquko ezimbili eziguquguqukayo. Ngo-2004 bethula iMagnetTraction. Lezi zindawo ezimangelengele zandisa ukulawulwa kweqhwa. Ngo-2006 uMervin wethula i-reverse camber ngaphansi kwegama elithi Banana Tech.
Okuthile okuhluke kakhulu ku-camber yendabuko yama-skis namabhodi eqhwa; Lokhu mhlawumbe kube ushintsho olukhulu kakhulu ekwakhiweni kwebhodi leqhwa kuze kube manje. Amabhodi e-camberboards asemuva axega futhi anciphisa ithuba lomphetho.
Ngemva konyaka, i-hybrid camber yazalwa. Iningi lala mabhodi line-camber ehlanekezelwe phakathi kwezinyawo kanye ne-camber ekugcineni nasemsileni.
Ngokushesha phambili iminyaka eyishumi futhi izimo eziphefumulelwe nge-surf ziqala ukuvela. Ekuqaleni imakethwa iqhwa eliyimpuphu, imiklamo yashintsha futhi abagibeli abaningi bakhetha ukusebenzisa lawa mabhodi anemisila emincane ukusetshenziswa kwansuku zonke.
Futhi manje ebusika buka-2019, izinketho ziningi. “Isikhathi esijabulisa kakhulu esake sakhiwa ebhodini leqhwa,” kusho umakadebona embonini, imbangi enkulu yezintaba kanye noMphathi-Jikelele we-Wave Rave eMammoth Lakes, u-Tim Gallagher.
Ngakho-ke yenza umsebenzi wakho wesikole futhi wenze ukukhetha okufanele ukuze konke ukugibela nakho konke ukujika kube yinto okuhlangenwe nakho futhi ungasebenzisa ngokugcwele isikhathi sakho entabeni!

Ukuqonda ukwakhiwa kwebhodi leqhwa
Ukwakha i-snowboard kufana nokwenza i-hamburger enhle. Nakuba izithako ezintsha nezingcono zingathuthukisa kokubili ama-burger namabhodi eqhwa, inqubo yokuwenza ayikashintshi kakhulu.
“Ukwakhiwa kwamapuleti akushintshile kule minyaka engu-20 edlule. Ngalokho ngisho ukuthi kunesisekelo sepulasitiki ye-polyethylene enomngcele ozungezile. Kukhona ungqimba lwe-fiberglass. Umnyombo wokhuni. Isendlalelo se-fiberglass neshidi eliphezulu lepulasitiki. Lezo zinto eziyisisekelo azikashintshi kakhulu. Kodwa kube nokuqanjwa okuningi kwezinto ezithize ezithuthukisa ukusebenza kokugibela nesisindo samabhodi esiwabona emakethe namuhla,” kusho unjiniyela Omkhulu Wokuklama eBurton Snowboards, uScott Seward.
Enye yezingxenye ezibaluleke kakhulu zebhodi lakho iwumgogodla. Ikakhulukazi eyakhiwe ngokhuni - izinhlobo ezahlukene zishintsha isitayela sokugibela.
Abakhiqizi abaningi baze basebenzise izinhlobo ezahlukene zokhuni kumgogodla owodwa. Isibonelo, amabhodi e-Lib Tech aqukethe izinhlobo ezintathu ezahlukene zokhuni. Abanye abakhiqizi bakha ama-foam cores. Abakhi baqopha izinongo, njengokungathi.
Ncipha lapho udinga ukuguquguquka okwengeziwe futhi ujiye lapho ungafuni khona. Ngokungafani ne-hamburger, akufanele neze ubone umnyombo webhodi lakho. “Uma ikhasimende like lawubona umnyombo, kusho ukuthi bengiwenza kabi umsebenzi wami,” kusho uSeward.
"Ushizi nobhekeni" ku-burger umele izingqimba ze-fiberglass. Lezi zendlalelo ze-fiberglass zithinta ikhwalithi yokugibela yebhodi lakho.
Amabhodi aphezulu avame ukuba ne-carbon stringers - imicu emincane ye-carbon fibre egijima ubude bebhodi ukuze kube nokuqina okungeziwe kanye ne-pop.
I-Epoxy ivala ibhodi futhi iyenze ibe yinto yonke. Asikhulumi nge-epoxy enobuthi yesikhathi esidlule: I-Organic epoxy ingenye yezinto ezintsha zakamuva ezinkampanini ezifana ne-Lib Tech ne-Burton.
Ungakubukeli phansi ukubaluleka kwe-epoxy njengoba ibamba ibhodi ndawonye futhi iletha umlingiswa ekuphileni.
Ngemuva kwejazi lesibili le-epoxy, ibhodi lilungele i-topsheet. Uma lokho sekungeziwe, phezulu kufakwa esikhunjini futhi ibhodi licindezelwa kulo, zonke izingqimba zihlanganiswe ndawonye futhi iphrofayili ye-camber yebhodi isethiwe.
Nakuba imishini eqinile ibalulekile ekwakheni amabhodi eqhwa, kunobuciko obuningi obuhilelekile. “Abantu abaningi bayamangala ngobuningi bemisebenzi yezandla ehilelekile,” kusho uSeward.
Ibhodi lingaphansi komshini cishe imizuzu eyi-10. Khona-ke ibhodi liya ekuqedeni, lapho izingcweti zisusa izinto ezingaphezulu futhi zengeze ama-sidecuts. Khona-ke ibhodi lifakwe isihlabathi kuzo zonke izinhlangothi ukuze kukhishwe i-resin eyengeziwe. Ekugcineni, ibhodi lifakwa wax.
Kufanele ngithenge nini ibhodi leqhwa?
Nakuba kungase kube nzima ukucabanga kusengaphambili ngesizini elandelayo futhi uthenge izinyanga ezingu-6 kusengaphambili ngaphambi kokusebenzisa ibhodi lakho elisha, isikhathi esingcono kakhulu sokulithenga ukuphela kwesizini (ngoMashi kuya kuJuni okungcono ). Amanani ke aphansi kakhulu. Futhi ku-dIzintengo zisephansi kuleli hlobo, kodwa izitoko zingakhawulelwa kakhulu.
Ngingazifundisa i-snowboard?
Ungafunda i-snowboard ngokwakho. Kodwa-ke, kungcono ukuthatha isifundo kuqala, ngaphandle kwalokho uzomosha izinsuku ezimbalwa ukuthola okuyisisekelo. Amahora ambalwa nomfundisi angcono kunezinsuku ezimbalwa zokuzama uwedwa.
Amabhodi eqhwa ahlala isikhathi esingakanani?
Cishe izinsuku eziyi-100, mKodwa futhi kuya ohlotsheni lomgibeli. Uma ungumgibeli wepaki owenza ukweqa namaconsi amakhulu usuku lonke, kungenzeka ukuthi uzophula ibhodi lakho leqhwa phakathi nesizini!
Ingabe kubi ibhodi leqhwa ngaphandle kwe-wax?
Ungagibela ngaphandle kwe-wax futhi ngeke ilimaze ibhodi lakho. Kodwa-ke, kuwumuzwa omuhle ukugibela ibhodi elisanda kufakwa. Futhi kuba nomuzwa ongcono nakakhulu uma u-wax ngokwakho!
Ingabe kufanele ngithenge noma ngiqashe okokusebenza kwe-snowboard?
Qasha amathuluzi kuqala futhi ufunde uma ungakaze ugibele eqhweni usuku olulodwa empilweni yakho. Thenga kuphela ibhodi leqhwa uma usuvele unombono wendawo ofuna ukuyigibela. Uma ukwazi lokho, ungavumelanisa okokusebenza kwakho ngokufanele futhi uzokwenza kangcono!
Isiphetho
Enye yezindlela ezingcono kakhulu zokuthola ukufanelana okuhle ukwenza umsebenzi wakho wesikole. Kuwukuhlakanipha ukukhuluma nabathengisi abangaphezu koyedwa, uchwepheshe noma umngane mayelana nolwazi lwabo, bangakwazi ukukweluleka kahle.
“Ayikho indlela efanele noma engalungile yokugibela i-snowboard. Uma uzijabulisa ngokuhlola intaba futhi uziphusha ngaso sonke isikhathi, wenza kahle,” kusho uGallagher.
