Three dominant techniques are used for downhill turning in cross‐country skiing. In this
study, kinematic, kinetic, and temporal characteristics of these techniques are described and …

This study examined the influence of turn radius on velocity and energy profiles when
skidding and step turning during more and less effective downhill turns while cross-country …

We compared selected kinematic variables for four different ski turn techniques performed
by five experienced and five intermediate male skiers. The four ski turn techniques were the …

Purpose This study aimed to compare biomechanical aspects of a novel “running” diagonal
stride (DS RUN) with “conventional” diagonal stride (DS CONV) skiing techniques …

This study investigated the evolution of skiing velocity, cycle length, and cycle rate in elite
and subelite skiers during cross-country ski races. Senior male cross-country skiers …

Purpose The aims of the study were a) to compare the double-push skating technique with
the V2 and the V1 skating techniques on an uphill terrain by a kinematic and kinetic …

Cross-country ski technique is undergoing rapid evolution. Alternate stride skating was the
dominant technique during the 1985–86 racing season (double poling is synchronized with …

Cycle and force characteristics were examined in 11 elite male cross-country skiers using
the diagonal stride technique while skiing uphill (7.5°) on snow at moderate (3.5±0.3 m/s) …

This investigation was designed to analyse the kinematics and kinetics of cross‐country
skiing at different velocities with the herringbone technique on a steep incline. Eleven elite …

The mechanics of crosscountry skiing involve a complex interaction between the kinematic
characteristics of the movement patterns and the kinetic relationships driving the motion …
