BIOMECHANICS & PHYSICS

Postural control, or stance, can be defined as the control of our body position in space. This control depends on […]

Our relationship with the snow is a critical factor in skiing. A suitable contact with the ground is a necessary

Efficient skiing posture is understood as the one in which our energy expenditure is the minimum necessary to achieve the

The relationship between posture and perception in skiing defines a closed-loop system of human movement. Biomechanically, maintaining the ‘correct’ posture

From a biomechanical perspective, skiing posture is the fundamental mechanism for managing the high-magnitude forces of gravity, friction, and centripetal

In this section we will be going to develop the basic aspects of the movements we generate while skiing. We
