PHOTOGRAPHER: JOE FELZMAN. 2 GF UPDATE 77.indd 2-3 M GET READY FOR THE SLOPES Heading for the ski resorts this winter? ANDY AIREY has the latest gear news. Without doubt, the single most important piece of ski gear you’ll ever own is your boots; these can govern whether you enjoy your holiday or not. If they don’t fit and are uncomfortable, your holiday is ruined; but if you’ve found the boot that fits and supports your foot as well as matches your skiing style then you’ll forget about your feet and just enjoy your skiing. Our range includes boots from Salomon, Nordica and Head that cover various fit options, sizes and performance characteristics. I won’t bore you with the details of every boot because the only boot that’s relevant to anyone is THE ONE THAT FITS. However, I think it’s worth mentioning a couple of innovations for this season.

So, the aim was to determine correlation between alpine ski novices’ attitude towards alpine skiing before the learning process and level of acquired knowledge after completion of structured alpine ski school program. 112 alpine ski novices (33 females and 79 males) participated in the study. All were tested on 26-item scale questionnaire for attitude evaluation and were included in 10-days alpine ski school program. After completion of ski school, all participants demonstrated eight elements of alpine ski technique which was used as a measure of acquired ski knowledge. Results showed statistically significant correlation between acquired alpine ski knowledge and attitude of ski novices towards alpine skiing (r = .36). The most statistically sig- nificant correlation was determined between the level of learned parallel turn and attitude towards skiing (r = .42). Our results point to importance of attitude towards alpine skiing and alpine ski learn- ing. Key Words: alpine skiing, learning process, attitude towards alpine. INTRODUCTION towards alpine skiing can not be formed on personal experience, it is primarily bound to emotions and From the perspective of alpine ski novices, going information from the environment.

OVERVIEW Adaptive sports are sports that are adapted in some way to better support individuals with intellectual or physical impairments. These adaptations can include differences in equipment, technique, or teaching techniques. Cross-country skiing (also called Nordic skiing) is a wonderful option for people with disabilities who enjoy exploring trails or engaging in physical activity in winter environments. Some people pursue Nordic skiing for the peace and solitude, some like the fitness that comes with practice of the sport, and others en- joy pushing their bodies to the physical limit. Sit skiing is a great way for people with spinal cord injuries (SCIs), leg amputations or injuries, or mobility impairments to enjoy the sport of cross-country skiing. As with other snow sports, the teaching progression for skiers with disabilities has evolved as instructors and students explore different and innovative approaches.

    Glossary of Ski Terms by Skis.com Page 1 of 11 Home > Ski-O-Pedia > Glossary of Ski Terms Glossary of Ski Terms By Steve Kopitz 12/18/2012 Skiing and snowboarding are two of the greatest winter sports on the planet, and like anything else in this world the two sports have certain terms and jargon that can be confusing without a bit of definition. Below you will find a number of terms/phrases used in skiing and snowboarding to refer to products, clothing, and the sports of skiing and snowboarding in general. We have provided a brief definition to help clear up any confusion or questions you may have on these terms/phrases. A ABS Sidewall: Industry term for a type of edge construction on skis and snowboards using high quality ABS (Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene) plastic. All-Mountain Ski: A large percentage of Alpine skis fall into this category. All-Mountain skis are designed to perform in all types of snow conditions and at most speeds. Other names for this style of ski include Mid- Fat skis, All-Purpose skis, and the One-ski Quiver. Alpine Skiing: Downhill skiing, as opposed to Nordic Skiing. Après-Ski: The day’s over – time for drinks and swapping war stories from the slopes. Audio Helmet: A helmet wired with speakers that allows you to listen to music while skiing. Avalanche Beacon: A safety device worn by skiers, snowboarders, and others in case an avalanche traps them. The beacon transmits a signal (typically at the international standard frequency of 457khz) that rescuers can use to locate a buried person.

    Appendix 8 of Regulation No 1of the Government of the Republic of 6 January 2011 National Curriculum for Basic Schools Last amendment 29 August 2014 Subject field: Physical education 1. General Principles 1.1. Physical Education Competence The objective of physical education in basic school is to develop students’ age-appropriate physical education competence: ability to recognise the value of physical activity and healthy living as a part of one’s lifestyle; ability to assess one’s physical fitness level and readiness to practice suitable sports or exercise; ability to show tolerance towards peers, follow the rules of fair play and value cooperation during sports and exercise. In developing these competencies basic school graduates will be expected to possess the capability to be able to: 1) understanding the importance of physical activity to health and physical ability and the need for regular exercising; 2) wishing to be healthy and have good posture; 3) master basic knowledge and skills to exercise independently both indoors and in the open air; 4) follow safety and personal hygiene requirements when exercising/practising sport and know how to act in emergency situations that may occur while practising sports; 5) enjoying exercising/practising sports and being ready to learn new motor skills and exercise/practise sports independently; 6) know the principles of fair play, are cooperative and exercise/practise sports respecting fellow students and agreed rules / competition regulations and preserving the environment; 7) acquiring the techniques of sports/forms of exercise included in the syllabus for basic school; 8) monitor their physical fitness, know how to improve their performance ability through regular training; 9) are interested in the sports and dance events held in Estonia and around the world; and 10) appreciate the tradition of Estonian dance festivals.

  • Does the Sequential Teaching of Elements of Alpine Ski School Follow the Increase of Pressure Beneath the Skier's Foot?
    Cigrovski, V. et. al.: The sequentional teaching of… Acta Kinesiologica 14 (2020) Issue. 2: 42-46 DOES THE SEQUENTIAL TEACHING OF ELEMENTS OF ALPINE SKI SCHOOL FOLLOW THE INCREASE OF PRESSURE BENEATH THE SKIER'S FOOT? Vjekoslav Cigrovski1, Mateja Očić1, Ivan Bon1, Tomislav Rupčić1, Igor Božić2 1University of Zagreb, Faculty of Kinesiology, Croatia 2University of Banja Luka, Faculty of Physical Education and Sport, Bosnia and Herzegovina Original scientific paper Abstract In everyday practice, it is quite common for a ski instructor to ask ski school participants to become aware of pressure under certain parts of the feet during skiing in order to improve their performance. At the same time literature is lacking concerning ground reaction forces and pressures achieved during recreational level skiing. The aim of the present study was to determine the differences between measured forces and their distribution under skiers’ feet during performance of different elements of ski technique. Analysis of kinetic parameters was conducted on four elements of alpine ski school (snowplough, basic turn, parallel turn, short turn). Variable sample included 16 variables. In each element of ski technique analysed were 12 turns (6 in left and 6 in right side). Kinetic parameters were measured by insoles designed for pressure detection (Novel, Pedar). Results of our study suggest that in-boot pressure over outer leg rises as the turns become more complex (from basic to parallel turn and short turn). When pressure is compared between inner and outer leg, significantly lower pressure level was on an inner leg (in ratio 1:4) in all elements of technique except during short turn.
