  • 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).

  • The Development of Interactive Ski-Simulation System by Physics-Based Analysis
    ( The Development of Interactive Ski-Simulation System By Physics-based Analysis Moonsub Jin, Chunho Choi, Bummo Ahn, Sayub Kim, Kyungryul Chung Wellness Technology R&D Group, Korea Institute of Industrial Technology, Korea [email protected] Abstract In this paper, we have developed a ski-simulation system to obtain more information about the physics-based simulation models using Newton’s second law of motion. We present a real time simulation of ski playing by using the physics-based modeling and verify physics models through field test. We applied these models and parameters by regression analysis to develop interactive ski-simulator. The developed ski-simulator analyzes user’s full body and center of mass using Kinect device in real time and provides feedback about force, velocity and acceleration for user. As a result, through the develop- ment of interactive ski-simulator, we accumulated experience and skills based on physics models for development of sports simulator.

  • Business in Brief
    Business in brief 1. MARKET TENDENCIES The number of people in the world, who are engaged in skiing, is growing rapidly and according to various estimates by 2020 will exceed 500 million of people. During the past 3 years skiing season at European ski resorts has decreased by 30% due to warm and less snow winters. People want to enjoy skiing in the mountains but also tend to train in advance before the visit. This kind of dynamic stimulates the demand for ski services, including the development of indoor ski clubs. Some European countries with the population of 9-10 million have about 40 ski clubs and each has 2-3 «endless slope» ski simulators. We know from our experience, that the population of up to 50 thousand people, who are living within 20-25 minutes away, would be enough to provide the positive financial business of the club. In developing countries with the income level lower than the European one, ski vacations are gaining pace. Therefore, 1 club will open for every 200,000 citizens at first. The next 3-4 years will increase this ratio to 1 ski club for every 100,000 citizens. Indoor ski club guarantees the low level of competition in the niche of active recreations and the annual 100% level of demand. Due to the Proleski unique features, it is possible to get more than 65% of regulars with high and long-term customer loyalty. Ski Club - is a profitable and perspective business: The indoor Ski Club - is one of the fastest growing and profitable businesses with low competition among the outdoor activities (the increase of demand - more than 100% annually).

Vi har fått tillatelse av arrangøren å presentere en del foredrag (abstract) som er av interesse for langrennstrenere. Vi har delt presentasjonene i to: 1) abstract som omhandler langrenn og 2) abstract som omhandler utholdenhetstrening rettet mot elite utøvere. Abstracts er på engelsk, og viktige referanser er vedlagt nederst på hvert enkelt abstract. God lesning! CROSS-COUNTRY SKIING: PREDICTION OF CROSS-COUNTRY SKI SEASON PERFORMANCE BASED ON A LINEAR REGRESSION MODEL OF LABORATORY ROLLER SKI CAPACITY AND VO2MAX TEST Naef, N., Steiner, T., Müller, B., Wehrlin, J.P. Institution: Swiss Federal Institute of Sports, Magglingen, Switzerland Introduction: Cross-country (XC) ski-specific testing is used to support elite athletes regarding their training control as well as to predict performance of competitive ski season (Alsobrook & Heil, 2009, Staib et al., 2000). The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between the results of two different laboratory preseason roller ski tests and the XC ski performance of the following season as well as its predictability with a linear regression model. Methods In October 2008, 14 male XC skiers of the Swiss National U20 (n=5), U23 (n=2) and Elite (n=7) Distance Ski Team completed two laboratory roller ski tests on a large motor-driven treadmill. Athletes performed a maximal diagonal stride test to measure VO2max. 24 hours later they carried out a maximal double poling capacity test with self selected speed during three stages of eight minutes (5 min at 3° inclination and 3 min at 5° inclination) to establish maximal possible distance.

  • Determinants of a Simulated Cross-Country Skiing Sprint Competition Using Skating Technique on Roller Skis by Junior XC Skier
    Determinants of a simulated cross-country skiing sprint competition using skating technique on roller skis by junior XC skier M. Nosek1, V. Haman2 1Physical education and sports department, Pedagogical faculty, University J. E. Purkyně in Ústí nad Labem 2Gymnasium and High School Jilemnice Abstract The present study analyses the main factors determining the performance in simulated sprint race on roller skis for junior XC skiers. At the same time it is trying to check a hypothesis whether the performance in si- mulated freestyle sprint race and the time spending in each section of racetrack have close continuity with performance in maximum muscle performance test on ski simulator. Eight czech male junior XC skiers performed a simulated freestyle sprint race (4x1600 metres and 20 minutes rest) on the racetrack of the World Championship in Liberec – Vesec. We looked into their performance in simulated freestyle sprint race and the performance in each section of the racetrack. We measured the total time and the time measured in five different sections of the racetrack. The total time, time and speed measured in different sections were taken by using sport tester Polar RS800CX with GPS navigation and Google Earth. In addition, the athletes underwent the laboratory test of spiroergometry on the treadmill and maximum power performance test on Skierg. The test on the treadmill was performed with increasing load until athletes’ exhaustion and during this we measured the maximal aerobic capacity (VO2max), blood lactate concentrations (LA) and maximum heart rate (HR max). In the examination of the maximum power performance by using ski simulator -Skierg we investigated the maximal power performance and blood lactate concentrations.
