Estimation of ground reaction force direction in inline speed skating motion [PDF]
Frontiers in Sports and Active LivingThis study proposes and verifies a method to estimate the ground reaction force (GRF) direction from supporting-leg posture during speed skating. We hypothesized that GRF direction can be accurately estimated from supporting-leg posture.

Ice-rich slurries can account for the remarkably low friction of ice skates
Journal of Glaciology, 2023 Ice skates are remarkably slippery across a wide range of conditions. We propose, based on earlier observations and new modeling, that an ice-rich slurry forms rapidly beneath a skate blade during each stride to lubricate the interface.
