Ape Boards
Kvardová, Kateřina ; Kloss, Jan (referee) ; Houf, Václav (advisor)
Ape Boards is my own newly formed label, which manufactures snowboards and kiteboards. For this thing I have proposed a substantial logotype, which has a function as a unifying element across the whole brand and designs boards. Website (www.apeboards.com). A first collection of snowboards and kiteboards from which I had made 7 pieces for a thesis. Designs do not 'mass' lust, because the objective is not a big production or promotion, but based on what I liked. From the minimalism through the color geometry to the gorillas, according to which the brand was named.

Kubišta, Adam ; Gnad, Tomáš (advisor) ; Bačáková, Radka (referee)
Title: Comparison of activation the selected muscles during snowboarding on simulator and snow. Author: Bc. Adam Kubišta Supervisor: PaedDr. Tomáš Gnad Objective: This study aims to compare activation of selected muscles during basic skidded turn on snowboard on simulator and snow. Methods: Muscle activity was measured by a method called surface electromyography. The activation of selected muscles was examined using a comparative analysis. The timing of the participation of selected muscles during the basic skidded turn on snowboard on the Maxxtracks simulator and on the snow was compared. Results: This research with this method did not show a significant similarity in snowboarding on the Maxxtracks simulator and on the snow. The results of our work show the difference in timing of lower limb muscle participation on a snowboard during the basic skidded turn on the Maxxtracks simulator and on the snow. Each participant experienced a different participation of the observed muscles in the step cycle and no obvious movement pattern was discovered. Key words: Snowboarding, electromyography (EMG), muscle activation, simulator

Hanko, Michal ; Bunc, Václav (advisor) ; Kinkorová, Ivana (referee)
Title: Body composition of the Czech national snowboardcross team Objectives: The aim of this work is to measure and evaluate body composition as a factor influencing sports performance in the Czech snowboardcross team and comparison with relevant data of foreign authors. Methods: We evaluated body composition data using whole-body BIA analysis (Bodystat 1500 monofrequency analyzer in the field), anthropometric examination (height, weight) and waist-hip ratio, indicating the risk of cardiovascular disease. At the same time, we recorded the age and length of training of snowboarders. We used statistical operations (arithmetic mean, standard deviation, minima and maxima, statistical and material significance) for data analysis. We also compared the data with the relevant results of national teams of Italy and the USA (Vernillo et al., 2016; Sands et al., 2021) and data from the untrained population (Schutz et al., 2002; Abe et al., 2018). Results: We found that the average BMI of the Czech national team in snowboarding is 24.49 ± 1.8 kg/m2 (men) and 23.95 ± 0.94 kg/m2 (women). The mean WHR is 0.8 ± 0.03 (males) and 0.72 ± 0.04 (females). The Czech representatives significantly (p ˂ 0.05) and materially (d ≥ 0.8) differ significantly from the untrained population in FFMI values of 21.6 ± 1.1 kg/m2...

Skiing and snowboarding at first grade of elementary
Lutašová, Andrea ; Přibyl, Ivan (advisor) ; Hronzová, Marie (referee)
This academic work deals with children who are school age or younger school age and their interest in skiing and snowboarding. It tries to expose the reason of decreasing attendance at ski courses offered by schools. The research made by questionnaire shows that most of the children attending lower grades of elementary schools do some sport. They would also like to attend the ski course but they often listed finances as the obstacle. The results of interviews made with teachers of elementary schools and high schools display that only the children who had experienced winter sports either before entering elementary school or soon after entering school want to participate. This work considers as important placing the ski courses at the first grade of the elementary schools. The number of children interested in winter sports would increase. More of them would consider participating at ski courses that help raising the physical and mental condition. Keywords: younger school age, physical activities, snowboarding, skiing
