  • Complements to the Base Technique in Sprint Kayak; Methods of Evaluation
    1 2 Complements to the Base Technique in Sprint Kayak; Methods of Evaluation Summary The following is a study on the methods of evaluation of complementary elements of Base Technique. These are: 1. Meta-Technique – which represents the athlete’s primary objective and is closely related to the hydrodynamic characteristics and the statistical necessities of energy exchange; and 2. Micro-Technique – which relates to the specifics of force application with a view to achieving the desired objectives, using Base Technique as required. We will also be examining the physical principles relating to the various evaluations, as well as providing the formulae and showing the methods of video-analysis employed. With regards to the athletes’ Meta- and Micro-Techniques, we shall evaluate some of the elements identified in the video clips. An athlete with flawless technique will produce physical phenomena that leave predictable and consistent traces, which in turn represent the optimal point of reference. It is not a coincidence that these traces and phenomena correspond to the principles of propulsion of naval hydrodynamics. On the other hand, an athlete whose technique is imperfect will produce physical phenomena that leave chaotic traces, which are never similar to those we expect to see in optimal cases. We will also devote our attention to analysing races using GPS data for speed and frequency provided by the ICF (International Canoe Federation) and by the FISA (Fédération Internationale des Sociétés d’Aviron) for international races. It is possible to obtain a great quantity of information using said data: we can analyse information relating to quality, as well as indicating the fundamental ‘methods’ or ‘modes’.

This trip almost didn't happen because of the recent rash of wild fires in the Montana - Idaho area, so we are very fortunate to be having this show. The church is located on Highpoint Road (runs north/south), between Glenridge Road and Windsor Parkway, both of which intersect Roswell Road. From I 285 topside perimeter, take Roswell Road/Sandy Springs exit south What's Inside... (inside the perimeter) to Glenridge Road. Turn left on Glenridge Road and right on Highpoint.
