Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The purpose of this study was to investigate kinematic characteristics during maximal board paddling, and to provide practical findings for improving abilities for surf rescue and lifesaving competitions. Subjects performed 40 m maximal board paddling in a 50 m indoor pool using two paddling techniques (paddling in kneeling and prone positions). Board velocity, stroke rate, stroke length, and angles and angular velocities of joints and body segments were analyzed by a motion analysis system. We clarified kinematic characteristics of (1) stroke parameters according to paddling techniques and gender in elite paddlers, (2) stroke parameters in elite and sub-elite paddlers, (3) paddling movements in elite and sub-elite paddlers, and (4) stroke parameters according to types of boards (racing and rescue boards).
