Geometry and Running of the Alpine Skiing Fis World Cup
GEOMETRY AND RUNNING OF THE ALPINE SKI FIS WORLD CUP GIANT SLALOM PART ONE - GEOMETRY Wlodzimierz S. Erdmann, Andrzej Suchanowski and Piotr Aschenbrenner Jedrzej Sniadecki University School of Physical Education, Gdansk, Poland The aim of this paper is the presentation of the geometry of the alpine ski giant slalom at the highest world level in order to calculate the obtained time by videorecording velocity and acceleration of running. KEY WORDS: alpine skiing, giant slalom, fis world cup, geometry INTRODUCTION: In alpine skiing the role of a coach is a difficult one. This is due in part, to the fact that during the competition he would be unable to observe the athlete for the entire track, regardless of the position he chose, because of the extensive terrain. Before the competition the organizing committee provides data only on general description of the course, i.e. the length of the slope (measured usually without snow) and few data on the incline of the slope. Unfortunately, no data on geometry of gates is supplied to the coaches. During the competition the time of running of the entire course and of one or two segments of the course are displayed. These data do not provide sufficient information with which to evaluate adequately an athlete’s performance on the course. Possession of detailed data on the geometry of the poles setting and on the time of the running between them would allow the coach to more accurately assess the performance of the skier on the course, i. e. what velocity and acceleration he had achieved between the gates. -

When JK was introduced at the opening reception, Editor there was an undercurrent of cocktail conversation that made it impossible to hear what M.C. Antil he was saying. However, unlike the previous speakers who tried to rise above the noise by shouting, JK spoke softly into the microphone. Project Management Anne Marie Hukriede - Sadler & Dorchester At first, no one listened, so he stopped. Then he started again, and this time rather than Lorie Sadler - Sadler & Dorchester speaking louder, he spoke even softer. The second time, those in front began to quiet Doug Craver - Knotice Ltd. down and started hushing those behind them. But still there was a lot of ambient noise. So JK stopped again. Then he started again. This time quiet swept across the room, to Editorial Design & Layout the point that soon only a handful of people in the back were still talking. -

The data from a global navigation satellite system and inertial measurement unit were integrated to compare time loss and selected sub-techniques as a function of speed. Compared to male/female AB skiers, male/female Para skiers displayed 19/14% slower average speed with the largest time loss (65 ± 36/35 ± 6 s/lap) Citation: Carlsen, C.H.; Kathrin found in uphill terrain. -
Ski Simulator of Igor Koshutin for Demonstrating and Helping the Novice Skiers/Racers to Learn the Essential Constituent Parts of Skiing
Ski Simulator of Igor Koshutin For demonstrating and helping the novice skiers/racers to learn the essential constituent parts of skiing The invention relates to the field of sport, in particular to ski training simulators, particularly devices for exercises and slalom skills, as well as devices for entertainment. There are a number of known methods of teaching and training for skiers, snow-boarders and water- skiers out of real tracks, as well as devices that implemented such solutions. As an example, there is a well-known way of teaching and training of skiers implemented in a device (patent US 3524641 A63V 69/18, 1970), where turn movements are simulated by moving the skier’s feet left and right while standing on a platform, and the skier balances using poles planted on the floor or ground. One shortcoming of known method is the inadequacy of the feet and body movements to simulate conditions in terms of changing the direction of skis due to a technical solution with the only translatory/linear motion of the carrying element with the platform. Also, there are ways of teaching and training skiers implemented in devices, where a rotating platform with the supporting surface for feet, skis or snowboard moves plane-parallel left-right, rectilinearly (see US patent 5078389, A63V 69/18, 1992) or along arc on the supporting unit (see. US 69/3511499, A63V 18, 1965; FR 1486082, A63V 69/18, 1967) or along arc on the supporting unit made as a beam (NL 8702665, A63V 69/18, 1989; US 4 A63V 69/846463, 18, 1989). -
