Abstract

In downhill the results obtained by elite athletes are very close to each other, so that a few hundreds of second can make the difference towards winning a race. Therefore, every little improvement of the total time can make the final difference. In past studies the effects of different type of the leg movement before starting and the force exerted on the ground were analysed in an experimental situation. There are not so many relevant studies under normal conditions on the snow and with top level athletes. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the relationship between the characteristics of force production at the push-off and the time and velocity performance in the 50 m subsequent to the start.
