Goals: 1. Watch the cross-country skier with the exarticulation in the knee joint during the activity and find out the differences with healthy person. 2. Devise a solution how to eliminated the shortcomings and try to minimaze these differences. Methods: This thesis is empirical-theoretical nature. The methods which we used are comparative analysis and observation with the following description. The observed variables were our thesis proband in comparison with our own expirience about cross-coutry skiing.
