OSLO Breeland Speaks Chiefs Jersey , May 12 (Xinhua) -- A new survey shows as much as 90 percent of the girls who were born in 1997 and now serving in Norway's armed forces are satisfied and recommend initial military service to other girls, newspaper Aftenposten reported Friday.


Norway introduced compulsory military service for women in 2015 and conscription for women applied to women born in 1997 and later.


For the first time, a new military service survey has been conducted among women who are part of the military service and not because they themselves have applied to the armed forces.


According to Norwegian Chief of Defence Admiral Haakon Bruun-Hanssen, the survey showed that the high expectations of the young people were more than fulfilled.


Seven out of ten responded that the service had satisfied or exceeded the expectations they had before starting the initial service.


In total Black Robert Golden Jersey , 84 percent said that they were satisfied with the service, among them the women thrived more: nine out of ten.


However, the survey documents revealed that the armed forces did not succeed in stopping sexual harassment or bullying of the women.


A total of 15 percent reported that they had experienced this. The share has fallen from 23 percent of the survey in 2012.


To a large extent, this concerns verbal harassment. According to the survey Black Chris Conley Jersey , two percent of men said they were experiencing the same, Aftenposten wrote.


"The Armed Forces have a zero tolerance for harassment and bullying," said Bruun-Hanssen.


"The Armed Forces still has work to do here. One measure we have recorded is that this should be a regular lesson at all commanding schools," said Anna Olivia Mohaugen from the Royal Norwegian Navy.


"We see that there are individuals who come straight from upper secondary school and who bring a culture from there. That could be an explanation Black Mitch Morse Jersey ," Mohaugen said.

There is much debate as to where snowboarding originated. But whether snowboarding descended from skiing or skateboarding, snowboarding is a legitimate sport that requires a descent on a snowy slope using a snowboard. It is difficult to really point out who started this fun-filled sport Black Chris Jones Jersey , but one thing is for sure: somebody will always have the idea of sliding down a snowy slope on a board or sled.

The growing recognition of snowboarding around the world is evidenced by its establishment as a sports discipline in 1995. As such, snowboarding has been included in events in Winter Olympics and Winter X-games. It even has a US Open tournament of its own. The growth of snowboarding as a sport is undeniable as more and more people get hooked on it.

Now that you are among the countless ones who want to try out the fun and excitement that only snowboarding can give, it is high time that you learn the basics of making your very first downhill ride on a snowboard. So how do you begin?

First, you need to procure the necessary snowboarding equipment. You need to have the right snowboarding gear Black Kareem Hunt Jersey , clothing, boots, and of course, snowboard. Make sure that your snowboard is the right size for you; not too expansive or narrow.

If you already have the necessary equipment Black Tanoh Kpassagnon Jersey , you can start learning the basics of riding your snowboard. Here are a few important things to remember as you start to find your destiny in snowboarding.

Keep in mind that snowboarding is similar to snow skiing. The body movements that enable you to control and stabilize your snowboard are the same as the movements in skiing. Therefore, if you are already a skilled skier, there will be fewer problems for you ahead. A skier will have easier time than a skateboard thrasher to learn snowboarding.

Always be in a relaxed position. Like any sport, snowboarding requires a calm and hang-loose mindset. Most accidents and injuries in snowboarding happen when one is in tensed position. As you mount your snowboard Black Patrick Mahomes II Jersey , keep your knees bent; a stiff stance will only make you absorb impacts between your snowboard and snow.

Do not start learning how to snowboard by immediately riding down the snowy slope during the first time. Instead, begin with snowboarding across a small patch of snow. Get a feel for the sport. Be conscious of your snowboard and your movement. Are you comfortable in your getup and equipment?

Try steering the snowboard over the small area you are in. Practice making turns, learn the finer points of toe-side turns, which means turning by lifting your heels up while pressing your toes to the snowboard; or heel-side turns Black Will Redmond Jersey , which make use of your heels for your turning. Once you have mastered the basics of balancing and steering your snowboard, you can move to a bigger patch of snow, but do not try a long and steep slope just yet.

Now that you have actually moved on your snowboard, you have to learn how to stop your snowboard. Stopping a snowboard basically requires making more turns until you find your self going for an uphill position. An uphill direction will certainly slow your snowboard down until you are in a complete stop.

After learning all the basic riding movements Black Sammy Watkins Jersey , you can now try a full-scale ride down a longer and steeper snow slope. Good luck!
