Ski repair on the go. Travel Tips

Tourist tips

It is easy and pleasant to ski quickly along the beaten paths in the park or the suburbs, avoiding dangerous descents or too sharp turns. But such an opportunity is not always available, especially when hiking through rough and even wooded areas. Often you have to overcome risky areas for skis that are fraught with their breakdown.

If repair skis while hiking - Experienced hikers resort to express repairs with the help of simple tools, stored in advance or found on the spot. To do this, you must always have with you adhesive tape or electrical tape (preferably plastic) and two or three long nails (they can be replaced with knots). The latter are superimposed on the fracture site (after its careful alignment) and tightly bandaged with a tape, as shown in the figure.

Field repair of skis: 1 - ski; 2 - broken ski toe; 3 - tires (rods, knots); 4 - electrical tape

Of course, in this case, we can only talk about sliding conditionally, but it will be quite possible to complete the route.

Artificial leather for touch emulation 15.04.2024

In a modern technology world where distance is becoming increasingly commonplace, maintaining connection and a sense of closeness is important. Recent developments in artificial skin by German scientists from Saarland University represent a new era in virtual interactions. German researchers from Saarland University have developed ultra-thin films that can transmit the sensation of touch over a distance. This cutting-edge technology provides new opportunities for virtual communication, especially for those who find themselves far from their loved ones. The ultra-thin films developed by the researchers, just 50 micrometers thick, can be integrated into textiles and worn like a second skin. These films act as sensors that recognize tactile signals from mom or dad, and as actuators that transmit these movements to the baby. Parents' touch to the fabric activates sensors that react to pressure and deform the ultra-thin film. This ... >>

The attractiveness of caring men 14.04.2024

The stereotype that women prefer "bad boys" has long been widespread. However, recent research conducted by British scientists from Monash University offers a new perspective on this issue. They looked at how women responded to men's emotional responsibility and willingness to help others. The study's findings could change our understanding of what makes men attractive to women. A study conducted by scientists from Monash University leads to new findings about men's attractiveness to women. In the experiment, women were shown photographs of men with brief stories about their behavior in various situations, including their reaction to an encounter with a homeless person. Some of the men ignored the homeless man, while others helped him, such as buying him food. A study found that men who showed empathy and kindness were more attractive to women compared to men who showed empathy and kindness. ... >>

Virtual keyboard 12.06.2002

Pocket computers are easy to carry, but inconvenient to use: either there is no keyboard, or it is so small that it is difficult to work with it.

The German company "Siemens" demonstrated at the annual computer exhibition developed in Israel "virtual keyboard". It is projected onto a table or any other horizontal surface by miniature laser beams. Moving your fingers, pressing the "keys" displayed on the table, you cross the laser beams, and these intersections are converted into letters on the PDA display.

Another option was proposed by the Swiss firm "Sensbord Technologies". "Bracelets" are put on the hands, which convert the movements of the fingers into letters. But to work with this keyboard, training and some imagination are needed - to imagine a keyboard in front of you that does not exist.
