Studying Force Patterns in an Alpine Ski Boot and Their Relation to Riding Styles and Falling Mechanisms

Abstract: In skiing, performance and safety can depend on small details. Consequently, the measurement of forces within the ski boots, which represent the essential form-fitting and force transmitting interface during skiing, will lead to enhanced performance and more importantly safety. This study presents a methodology to measure force patterns (continuous data acquisition) under laboratory as well as realistic slope conditions. The force measurements will be analyzed to gain insights of the skiing style, skiing techn… Show more

“…Position, acceleration, and speed are the three variables that must be gathered in the greatest quantity for performance analysis (Fasel et al,2016;Spörri et al, 2016). The repetition of turns, which is the primary element of this sport, has an impact on the competitor's total performance or time (Nimmervoll et al, 2021;Martínez et al, 2019;Ruiz-García et al, 2021). The attention that turns in alpine skiing receive from coaches and athletes clearly demonstrates their significance, as do the numerous publications that cover this subject.…”

“…When advanced skiers are performing carving turns to the right, the peak force occurs under the downhill (or left) foot and vice versa for turning to the left. We then extracted force metrics of the downhill foot during each turn based on previous research on force production during ski carving turns (3,33). Forces from each region were filtered with a bidirectional, 6-Hz, low-pass filter prior to any feature extraction.…”
