Inline skating belongs like ice hockey, rugby, and boxing to sporting activities with high-risk of suffering tooth accidents. Because of high velocity and loss of balance, especially on uneven ground, the injury potential in inline skating is higher. The objective of this work was to conduct a comparative study between Switzerland and Germany. The questions focussed on the frequency of tooth ac...

This study analyzed the biomechanical and physiological effects of the arm swing in roller ski skating, and compared leg-skating (i.e. ski skating without poles) using a pronounced arm swing (SWING) with leg-skating using locked arms (LOCKED). Sixteen elite male cross-country skiers performed submaximal stages at 10, 15 and 20kmh(-1) on a 2% inclined treadmill in the two techniques. SWING demon...

UNLABELLED During the last decade discussion about training-intensity distribution has been an important issue in sports science. Training-intensity distribution has not been adequately investigated in speed skating, a unique activity requiring both high power and high endurance. PURPOSE To quantify the training-intensity distribution and training hours of successful Olympic speed skaters ove...

The article is devoted to the study of sports slang features figure skating fans in modern Russian. relevance due increased interest domestic skating, which was expressed numerous author’s materials and comments on Internet. research conducted material texts published Internet platform “Zen” for 2021—2022. includes 115 units. main functions slangisms sphere “Figure skating” (nominative, express...

OBJECTIVES The purpose of this study was to examine whether field-based and/or laboratory-based assessments are valid tools for predicting key performance characteristics of skating in competitive-level female hockey players. DESIGN Cross-sectional study. METHODS Twenty-three female ice hockey players aged 15-25 years (body mass: 66.1±6.3 kg; height: 169.5±5.5 cm), with 10.6±3.2 years playi...

PURPOSE The introduction of the klapskate in speed skating confronts skaters with the question of how to adjust the position of the hinge in order to maximize performance. The purpose of this study was to reveal the constraint that klapskate hinge position imposes on push-off performance in speed skating. METHOD For this purpose, a model of the musculoskeletal system was designed to simulate ...

An increase of distal radius fractures was seen in 2009 when an extended cold spell allowed natural ice skating in Amsterdam. This resulted in overload of our Emergency Departments and operating rooms. This study reports patient and fracture characteristics of these injuries. We also determined potential skating-related risk factors. All patients who sustained a distal radius fracture during na...

This article compares the technologies of speed skating and roller to analyze differences between technology posture. In terms comparative analysis, summarize in skating, as well problems that are easy occur teaching, training competitions two items, so put forward some methods suggestions provide a reference for improving level performance.

This paper presents a real time algorithm for solving foot skating problem of a character whose motions are controlled in on-line puppetry manner through motion depth sensor such as Kinect. The IR(Infrared Light) projection based motion sensor is not perfect for reconstructing 3D poses of the user because it is very sensitive to occlusion and light condition. One significant artifact is foot sk...
