Injuries in Cross-Country Skiing
Sports Medicine, 1996This study comprehensively reviews and critically appraises recent literature on cross-country skiing injuries. Particular attention was paid to the study design when reviewing the literature, thereby producing a measure of internal and external validity. From these data, the factors associated with the aetiology, frequency, site distribution and types

The present chapter gives a theoretical analysis of the forces acting on a cross-country skier at various course gradients. A formulae for the human power output for given endurance and athletic characteristic is also presented. In addition, numerous examples are calculated to explain the force balance on a skier on a flat, an uphill and a downhill ski

A controlled, prospective study of the incidence of injury in cross-country skiing was carried out at various ski touring centers in northern Vermont. The rate of injury was determined to be 0.72 per 1000 skier days. Most injuries occurred in beginners or intermediate skiers on downhill terrain. Forty-nine injuries sustained by 43 skiers were evaluated.

Lighter-weight equipment, better groomed trails, and the increasing popularity of ski-skating techniques have introduced a new element to cross-country skiing: speed. Although the overall injury rate remains low, the number of traumatic injuries in cross-country skiers appears to be increasing.
