Fuková, Miroslava ; Macas, Tomáš (advisor) ; Havel, Jan (referee)
Title: The analysis of force and pressure against inner and outer skis in alpine disciplines Objectives: The aim of this thesis is to outline a review study of inner and outer ski force analysis in alpine skiing Methods: This thesis is presented as a review study outsourcing via research method, analysis, and comparison method. The purpose is to search, synthesise, and extract existing knowledge on inner and outer ski force in alpine skiing. The pressure against skis has been defined as the main parametr. Results: We came to a conclusion that pressure against outer ski dominates over pressure against inner ski based on the sources used in this thesis. We found out that in most cases the outer ski was under bigger pressure, and in rare cases not so. Conclusion: The practical usage of this thesis is to improve reader's overview on ski techniques, and the importance of implementing outer ski force awareness into basic set of skills among young skiers. This skill is crucial from certain point in a skier career for future improvement of technique and faster management of tracks. As a follow-up of the research we advise to carry out an empirical in-field measurement of outer ski pressure and the angle of angulation, especially within young skiers. This research can be done by tensometric insoles with 3D...

Bakaljar, Adrian ; Macas, Tomáš (advisor) ; Havel, Jan (referee)
Title: Development of technique in downhill skiing with a focus on step and pedal technique. Objectives: The aim of the work is to create a comprehensive overview study of alpine skiing technique and its development from step to pedal technique. This study will be an inspiring and practical source of information for ski instructors and teachers. Methods: In this work, we used the research method and the analysis method. We determined the movement of the skier's centre of gravity, cornering of the turn and pressure work as the tracking parameters. We used various sources by searching and studying professional publications in available databases and libraries. Results: We found that the technique of descending and turning on skis changed over time along with the change in ski equipment. The observed differences between the crotch a pedal technique show a great similarity between the two techniques. The fundamental difference in techniques was the movement of the skier's centre of gravity and the different degree of use of skiing skills. The step technique is based on the movement of the skier's central centre of gravity and dominates the edging skill, while the pedal technique is based on changing the load on the skis and dominates the work with pressure. Keywords: Alpine skiing, skiing technique,...

TITLE: Alpine Skiing World Cup Organization Benefits in Relation to Špindlerův Mlýn Municipality AUTHOR: Bc. Petr Černý FACULTY: Faculty of Physical Education and Sport SUPERVISOR: Dr.. Libor Flemr, Ph.D. ABSTRACT This study focuses on the town of Spindleruv Mlyn, which is currently the largest, highest- rated, but also the most expensive ski resort in the Czech Republic and holds TOP ski resort, which in recent years as the only winter resort tried to host the World Cup in Alpine skiing women, in the disciplines of slalom and giant slalom women. Spindleruv Mlyn organized racing elite women's series for the first time in December 2005 and again in January 2008. Premiere World Cup Giant was initially held back in 2003, but then defeated the plans of the organizers of the lack of snow. A success for the next SP in Spindleruv Mlyn took place in March 2011. Objective: The aim of this study is to assess the benefits for town of Spindleruv Mlyn (hence the whole county, region and Czech Republic) may have held such events as the World Cup in Alpine Skiing. Method: The calculation method was used a questionnaire comprising mainly by promoting the values that the organization of the event took place, but the city at the cost involved only a small fraction, so the effects are huge. I judged only influences the town...

The influence of alpine skiing on balance
Volejníková, Nikola ; Pavlů, Dagmar (advisor) ; Novotná, Irena (referee)
Title: The influence of alpine skiing on balance Author: Nikola Volejníková Objective: The aim of this work was to study the available literature, to characterize alpine skiing from its inception through biomechanics and physiological demands for skiers to characteristics of the individual disciplines. At the same time characterize motor skills in whole and focus on the main reference factor: the balance ability. The main objective of this work was to perform an experiment on two groups: experimental and control group. The aim of the experiment was to test the influence of alpine skiing on the balance and if there is the potentiality to improve the results of balance tests by only one week of intense skiing. The results of the experimental group were compared with the control group. Method: Measurement was carried out using the GymTop USB and one test for measuring static equilibrium. The main group consisted of 10 subjects selected from the participants of the ski-instructor course APUL "C" and measurement took place in two phases - before the course and after a week of intense duration of the course. An important criterion for the selection of subjects was their good health with no on-going acute musculoskeletal diseases. Only one year younger injuries were the reason for non-inclusion in the...

Tišer, Kryštof ; Jindra, Matouš (advisor) ; Gnad, Tomáš (referee)
Title: Comparison of explosive strength of lower limbs in different ski and snowboard disciplines. Aims: The aim of this thesis is to compare explosive strength of lower limbs in different ski and snowboard disciplines. Methods: This is an empiric-theoretical thesis. A simple experiment (testing) was used to verify the hypothesis. 6 used sets participated in the quantitative research. Testing was carried out using two standardized tests, broad jump and vertical jump (Sargent jump). In both tests the best of the three trials was evaluated. Results: In two tests for the explosive strength of the lower limbs significant differences in this ability were shown between some ski disciplines and snowboardcross. The best results in both tests were achieved by representatives of alpine skiing which disproved our hypotheses. Only the expectation that ski jumpers would perform better than the nordic combination was fulfilled. Key words: explosive strength, broad jump, vertical jump, skiing, cross country skiing, grass skiing, nordic combination, ski jumping, alpine skiing, snowboardcross

The inclusion of high altitude training for attendance in alpine skiing races
Ptáčník, Marek ; Jindra, Matouš (advisor) ; Fořterová, Petra (referee)
Title: The inclusion of high altitude training for attendance in alpine skiing races Objectives: The purpose of this Bachelor thesis was on the grounds of collected information determine, if the training in hypoxic area is needed for attendance in alpine skiing disciplines. Methods: In this Bachelor thesis was used the method of documents analysis, then searching in electronic database was used. Next method was collecting information from schedule of every single alpine discipline races. Results: Results of thesis are, that neccesity of inclusion hypoxic training is different for each discipline. We may say, that high altitude training is needed for downhill and super G specialists, whose performence is very often longer than 90 seconds, which is the border known as very imoprtant for inclusion of high altitude training. Hypoxic training for technical disciplines is not neccesary in view of the fact that races in slalom and giant slalom didn't cross the border of 90 seconds even once. Altitude of single races gives us similar results. Races of downhill and super G take place very often in 2000 meters above sea level - 33 races of 45 in super G and 31 of 56 in downhill. 2000 meters above sea level is the decisive border for high altitude training inclusion. Races of technical disciplines take place...
