A Study On Theory And Application Of Degree-of-Difficulty Tactics In Beauty-Competition Events And Weight/Height-Competition Events

Tactics in sport competition has been constantly enriching and developing with theintensification of competition and modification of rules, which makes a kind of tacticsbehavior gained attention, that is, athletes can choose, change or adjust the difficulty toinfluence the sport results, which is called “The Degree-of-Difficulty Tactics”.This kind of tactics often powerfully influence the sport results in Difficulty andBeauty-Competition Events and Weight/height-Competition Events. And its powerfuleffect has been proved by numerous competition examples which were reported innewspaper. However, theoretical studies on this kind of tactics are rare and greatly lagbehind its practical use. Thus, this study is to find the law and build its theoreticalsystem of “Degree-of-difficulty Tactics” by summarizing and inducing competitioncases from practical to theoretical level in which tactics’ adjustment and change ismainly used as a kind of means to succeed.Methods of literature study, experts interview, case analyses, logic analyses anddata statistics are used in the paper, and studies focused on the definition, function,manifestations, application process, strategy of the “Degree-of-difficulty Tactics”combined with competition practice of Difficulty and Beauty-Competition Events andWeight/height-Competition Events. The main conclusions are drawn as following:(1)“The Degree-of-Difficulty Tactics” is that athletes/sports teams choose, changeor adjust the difficulty/order to achieve the good results according to the sport rules.(2) The core elements of “The Degree-of-Difficulty Tactics” is Technical Difficulty.It establishes a new type tactical in the Xiangqun level and enriched tactical systemsaccording to the tactical performance. It is for a specific project services with physicalallocation of tactical, psychological warfare, ect.“The Degree-of-Difficulty Tactics” combined with the special rules has been becoming important in Difficulty andBeauty-Competition Events and Weight/height-Competition Events, Which constantlyhave powerful influence on sport results and athletes’ position ranking.(3The successful utilizing of The Degree-of-Difficulty Tactics is able to helpparticipants gain a favorable entry sequence, use reasonable difficulty, interfere theopponents’ judgment and rhythm, and show effectively their own competition ability.(4) There are two main basic forms of Degree-of-Difficulty Tactics, namely,declaration and changing of difficulty. Declaration of difficulty is that athletes submitthe plan of the difficulty (technical movements, weight etc) to the referee ahead of thecompetition. Changing difficulty refers to change the degree of difficulty during theprocess of competition.(5) Application process of Degree-of-Difficulty Tactics including some aspectssuch as athletes’ reserving the difficulty and tactics capacity, coaches’ guiding capacity,teams’ collecting and processing of competition information, diagnosis of athletes statebefore the game, clearing of the competition target, formulating of the competitionprogram, declaring of the difficulty/order, changing difficulty/order, and achievingcompetition goals.(6) The key points for declaration of difficulty in the Difficulty andBeauty-Competition Events including: varying degrees of difficulty according to thedifferent levels of athletes in different race, or declaring inflated participating difficulty.The key points for changing difficulty including athletes’ changing the difficulty ororder at the scene, increasing or reducing difficulty, or replacing equivalent difficulty.(7) The key points for declaration of difficulty in the Weight/height-CompetitionEvents is to emphasize on declaring or selecting the starting difficulty. The key pointsfor changing difficulty including choosing a different program to change the difficultyor tactical adjustments for free lift or free jump according to the different tacticalpurposes.(8) The following strategies should be adopted as using the Degree-of-DifficultyTactics, that is, establishing reasonable goal, determining the difficulty within one’s ownability and noticing strategy dependence. (9) The following strategies should be adopted to utilize successfully for theDegree-of-Difficulty Tactics in Difficulty and Beauty-Competition Events, namely,focusing on difficulty reservation, and when it is time to change the difficulty, thedifference among games should be noticed, especially careful to change the difficulty atthe scene. Considering the coefficient of difficulty, score, motion stability, a reasonablechoice of participating difficulty.(10) The coefficient of difficulty, score, motion stability about the freestyle skiingaerials men and women project’s statistical results show that Women’s best coefficientof difficulty to choose interval:2.97to3.65, For man the best coefficient of difficulty tochoose interval:4.08~4.59. If one can get the necessary index data, the best coefficientof difficulty to choose the interval can be determined by same operator in Difficulty andBeauty-Competition Events.(11) A strategy should be used to utilize successfully the Degree-of-DifficultyTactics in Weight/height-Competition Events, that is, quantifying for plan lifting orjumping, and making athletes’ own ability as the main basis for drawing up difficultytactics. Accurate weight calculation and reasonable use of the time for changingdifficulty based on all-round aspects should be noticed in lifting events.
