Training and periodization for snowboard cross, parallel slalom and parallel giant slalom. Science of Sport Coaching and Fitness Testing. Coaching Seminar, LBIA016, Department of Biology of Physical Activity, Univer- sity of Jyväskylä, 42 pages. Snowboarding is a popular recreational sport, but it is also an elite sport. Snowboarding has been an Olympic sport since 1998. There will be five different snowboarding disci- plines competed in Winter Olympics in Sochi 2014 (half-pipe, parallel giant slalom, parallel slalom, snowboard cross and slopestyle). Most of the snowboard cross and par- allel event competitions are organized by International Ski Federation (FIS). FIS also organizes the World Cup and every second year Snowboard World Championships. Snowboarding environment is challenging. Riders are frequently exposed to training in cold environments and at high altitudes. Because snowboarding is a technical sport snowboarders spend extensive time on-snow training. Apart from that elite snowboard- ers need to have a good physical fitness. Snowboarders experiences high ground reac- tion forces (McAlpine 2010). They also need to have good aerobic fitness, anaerobic capacity as well as good balance and power production capacity (Bakken et al. 2011; Bosco 1997; Creswell & Mitchell 2009; Neumayer et al. 2003; Platzer at al. 2009; Szmedra et al. 2001; Veicsteinas et al. 1984).

    2021-2022 version U.S. SKI & SNOWBOARD CROSS COUNTRY ONLY CLUB INSURANCE PROGRAM BENEFITS This is a general overview of insurance coverage that applies to the U.S. Ski & Snowboard Club Liability Insurance Program (CLIP) Program. It is not a complete explanation of all policy provisions or specifics of the policy benefits. No coverage is extended, and no representations are made, other than what is stated in the actual insurance policies. Please refer to the policies for a complete, detailed description of program coverages, exclusions and benefits. COMMERCIAL GENERAL LIABILITY LIMITS Insurer: Aspen American Specialty General Liability and Excess Limit Summary: • General Liability: $1,000,000 each occurrence; $2,000,000 Per Location Aggregate; $5,000,000 General Aggregate. • Excess: $5,000,000 each occurrence and aggregate The most that can be paid for any one occurrence (e.g., one accident) is $1,000,000 on the General Liability policy and $5,000,000 on the excess policy. In order to exhaust the $2,000,000 per location Aggregate on the General Liability policy, your CLIP Club would have to have multiple claims resulting in a settlement or judgment during one policy period (e.g., two separate $1,000,000 judgments or four separate $500,000 judgments). If a judgment/settlement exceeds $1,000,000, the excess policy increases the limit of liability by $5,000,000 (subject to the terms of the policy). Its limit could be exhausted by one enormous payment of $5,000,000 or a series of payments that add up to $5,000,000 for claims occurring within one policy year, but neither is anticipated or has even come close to occurring in the past.

  • Sports of the Winter Olympics: Snowboarding
    Sports of The Winter Olympics: Snowboarding The Sport Packet #10 Halfpipe Competitors take off from the halfpipe’s rim, performing challenging aerial maneuvers, including flips, twists and spins. They complete each trick by traveling back and forth between the halfpipe’s walls. Athletes complete two runs. The event takes place in a semi-circular ditch, or half of a pipe, dug into the surface of a hill. The halfpipe is typically 110 meters long with 3 to 4 meter deep vertical sides, each on an 85 degree rounded slope. The width from wall to wall is 13 meters to 15 meters. The format for the men and women’s event is the same. Parallel Giant Slalom Two competitors race simultaneously side by side down two courses. They take two runs, switching sides after the first one. The setting of the courses, the configura- tion of the ground and the preparation of the snow must be as identical as possible. The format is the same for the men and women’s event. The vertical drop of the course must be between 120 meters and 200 meters. The number of turns should be equal to 11 percent to 15 percent of the vertical drop in meters. Athletes must navigate around gates, which are 20 meters to 25 meters apart. A gate consists of two poles - one outside pole and one turning pole. Triangular banners are fastened between the poles so lower edges of the flag touch the snow. The banner is 110 cm tall on its long side and 25 cm tall on the short side; its base length is 130 cm.
