  At the beginning, I rescued a person with bare hands. After the rescue was over, I discovered that there was a paddle board in the second year. Because I am also a hobby, I think this paddle board rescue is quite good. It is better than some motor boats. Convenient, handy, that's it.

Our team not only played paddleboards, but also carried out regular exercises for water rescue. When things were done and needed to be useful, they could rush up as soon as possible.

  [Explanation] It’s not as good as the others. Under the leadership of team leader Wang Jun, the members of the Water Rescue Team of the Shenyang Swimming Association are all proficient in swimming, paddling, and saving people.

Regardless of the fact that these players are all in their sixties, but they are agile and strong.

Many players rely on these water sports to change their previous physical weakness.

  After retiring, my body is not very good, and my blood sugar is a bit high. Later, I just said to do that walking fitness, but in winter walking is to get cold after sweating. Later I came into contact with this swimming, so, that means swimming. In other words, it helps me a lot, and I think this exercise is suitable for me.

I started learning little by little. I started to learn swimming in January 2018. After I finished swimming, I am now going to this open water. Now I am willing to do this water sports, including this paddle board. Including these other things, it has benefited me a lot. I think that means that I basically have all the indicators that are normal now.

  [Explanation] Wang Jun is a person who loves to delve into research. Nowadays, many people in the team have accessories made by Wang Jun on their paddle boards.

With the proficiency of paddleboarding, Wang Jun took the lead in playing windsurfing again. It took him only three months from buying windsurfing to now being able to ride on the river.

He told reporters that compared to paddle boards, windsurfing is indeed much more difficult, and there is still a big difference between windsurfing in the river and windsurfing in the sea.

  The waves on the sea are different from the waves in our river. Most of the waves in the sea are waves at the bottom of the pot. Ours are ripple waves, like washboards. This is the case, and in terms of wind direction, the wind on the sea Still stable.

On both sides of our river, with such a high dam, the eddy currents and so on produced are different.

  [Explanation] Through this kind of play, Wang Jun and the team members have gained a lot. While being physically and mentally happy, they also have the skills of water rescue.

In the future, Wang Jun and his teammates want to take advantage of their physical strength and energy to try a variety of water sports, and they also want to participate in various water sports competitions to gain the joy of competition.
