Chapter 303: A Different Race

The race in Sheffield was different from the usual race. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 ο½‰ο½Žο½†ο½

This time, it was an outdoor venue.

The windy April days and the warm oceanic climate make for a great outdoor comfort.

But for athletes participating in diving competitions, outdoor competitions will make them more challenging.

The first day had just arrived, and everyone was repairing. Early the next morning, when Zhang Changqing gave everyone morning training, he reminded extraordinarily: "The next thing is the outdoor competition, once again, everything must be stabilized as the premise!" Outdoor races may encounter wind, light rain, bird droppings from the sky, etc...... None of them can affect their own state! Hear no! ”

"Yes!" Everyone shouted loudly.

"As we approach the noon race, the water surface has a strong reflection of the midday sun. But the UK is fine, the latitude is not very different from ours. Everyone thought, it's the same as if we went to the aquatic center to train. In case the sun is dazzling, stay on the stage for a while to get used to jumping again. ”

"In short, don't panic! Did you hear that?! ”

"I heardβ€”"

On the first day, Yao Aijun did not play.

After breakfast, I followed the flow of people in the game to the field, walked around the stands by myself, and found the position of my team to sit down through the color of the team uniform. I was not the first, and two or three teammates also came, said hello, and prepared to cheer for the teammates who participated in the game in the morning.

Today's weather is nice, cloudy, neither hot nor cold, and there is no strong sunshine yet.

The morning game started at 9 o'clock, and sitting in the outdoor stands felt different from usual. In an open field, the voices of people will be heard far away, but there is no feeling of hustle and bustle in an indoor venue.

Some of the players who have never been to participate in outdoor competitions feel very fresh. Under the blue sky and white clouds, the jumping platform standing next to the pond looks much fresher.

Shen Duo didn't have a doubles match this time, and naturally there was no match today. Coach Zhang followed into the infield, and he took the players in the outfield. By the way, tell them about the difference between outdoor competitions.

Shen Duo today reversed the steady style of being the captain of the team on weekdays, and may have dressed particularly casually and fancy in order to cooperate with the rare outdoor competition. The team uniform was only a jacket, a pair of beach pants-style floral pants underneath, and a pair of dazzling slippers on bare feet.

Yao Aijun didn't recognize it for a while when he saw the person coming. The huge sunglasses covered one-third of Shen Duo's big face.

"It's all here, sit down. It's rare that when we can bask in the sun, don't cover it. Take it off if you can, bask in the sun and supplement vitamins! Shen Duo took off his glasses and greeted everyone with a mouthful of white teeth.

Shen Duo's move made some of the players who were facing the outdoor arena for the first time relax a lot.

Yes, they practice diving, and there are very few opportunities to bask in the sun!

Before the game started, people entered the stadium one after another. The FINA World Diving Series is a single diving competition, and there are not many spectators, and in the morning they are all semi-finals, and most of the players who have not competed for the time being.

After everyone relaxed, they had the mind to take a closer look at the difference in the outdoor arena.

"Ahh I still like the outdoor arena, look at the air," a girl from the women's team leaned up to the stand seat and took a deep breath: "How fresh!" There is no smell of disinfectant at all!! Yes! I think my results are definitely much better than this kind of venue every day! ”

Immediately, a friend on the side complained: "Lingling, forget it." You can jump crookedly when there's no wind! If you look at the flag on the flagpole on the side, the flag is only about ten meters, and you can think about the wind. ”

"Captain, I don't think that pool is the same!" Another member of the team discovered a new difference.

Shen Duo hooked the leg of his sunglasses, held it in his hand and shook it, and said with a smile: "It must be different." Look at the mouths of the two wave brakes on the side, do you see? ”

"Huh?" Everyone looked along as he said.

This diving pool uses the water spray wave control method, and the position of the equipment nozzles is 1.5 meters in front of the projection of the springboard and the diving platform in the pool, and is arranged in groups.

Such wave-making systems are also common in indoor diving pools. The main function is to suppress the waves on the surface of the pool.

A standard diving pool with surface waves should meet the following requirements:

First, the waves should be uniform ripples, and there should be no tumbling waves.

Second, the height of the ripple wave on the surface of the pool water cannot exceed 40mm, that is, 4 cm!

Third, the waves on the surface of the pool should have many bubbles, a wide range and uniform distribution.

To put it simply, this set of wave-making equipment is to keep the water surface of the pool in a state of calm waves, especially in the diving pool, the splash effect and water wave effect when entering the water are important indicators to judge a diving action.

This system is designed to ensure that all competitors compete in the same water surface fluctuation environment, and minimize the impact of the waves on the athletes' performance due to the water itself.

Shen Duo has a purpose for letting everyone see. Usually everyone is in the indoor diving pool, and the water surface is in a very stable range under the action of the wave brake.

Now, it is clear that the water waves are decreasing along the distance of the wave controller's coverage. In the open outdoor environment, the sky reflects the waves on the water surface and shimmers beautifully, and this sparkling water wave is a testament to the rise and fall of the waves on the water surface.

"We should be vague when we sit here, and if we go into the water, the impact should be a bit big. There should be a clear difference between the resistance to entering the water and the situation under the water. Yao Aijun thought about it, and brought out his past experience in a speculative tone. After all, in the eyes of others, it was his first time participating in an outdoor competition.

"Yes. Aijun was right. Shen Duo glanced at him appreciatively. Everyone must pay attention to the fact that in addition to the actions that you can see in outdoor competitions such as jumping in the air are greatly affected by the wind, there is a difference between entering the water and going down! ”

The players who were brought to the heart were awe-inspiring, and as the game began, everyone paid special attention to these different places. The extent of the influence of these factors can be judged by the performance of the contestants.

Sure enough, as the coach reminded at the beginning, at the beginning of the women's singles three-meter board, the semifinals of Group A led two players to make a mistake.

One is that when I hit the plywood, I couldn't jump enough. The other is that it was opened when it was opened into the water.

"Wang Yanyan seems to be in Group A, how many jumps? Don't let anything happen."

"And it came out, and it came, 205b. Come on! (To be continued.) )
