Conditioning for Skiing and Ski Injury Prevention
Journal of Orthopaedic & Sports Physical Therapy, 1987As the popularity of skiing has risen in the United States over the last two decades so has the incidence of skiing injuries. The possibility exists that a proper conditioning program may decrease the frequency and severity of musculoskeletal injuries that occur during skiing.

The Journal of Trauma: Injury, Infection, and Critical Care, 1977
A group of 147 injuried skiers seen in the emergency room of a midwestern hospital was studied. There were almost twice as many males as females, and lower-extremity injuries outnumbered upper-extremity injuries two to one. Leg injuries tended to occur in beginners whose bindings failed to release.

Effect of Skiing Speed on Ski and Pole Forces in Cross-Country Skiing
Medicine & Science in Sports & Exercise, 2008The present study characterized pole and ski forces in classical technique cross-country skiing. Eight elite junior cross-country skiers performed diagonal skiing at 65%, 75%, 90%, and 100% of maximum speed on a stable 100-m-low uphill (2.5 degrees ).: The ski and the pole forces (vertical (Fz) and horizontal (Fy) directions) on the right and left ...

Shared Skies (13 global skies)
Leonardo, 2013Shared Skies is a series of digital prints and sculpture using photographs of skies collected from four sources: my own journeys, artists who participate as they travel worldwide, international friends through social media, and some purchased from photographers through stock photo sites.

Ski injuries were studied over a six-year period at a ski area in Northern Vermont. While the injury was being treated we gathered injury, anthropometric and ability data. The binding was tested using ASTM techniques. We found all injuries to decrease but there was a bigger reduction in lower leg injuries.

The American Journal of Sports Medicine, 1999
Skiing is a winter sport enjoyed by approximately 200 million people worldwide. An overall injury rate of approximately 3 per 1000 skier-days means that skiing certainly is the riskiest sport undertaken by adults on a routine basis. However, the data suggest that one can anticipate years of enjoyable recreation free from injury. Many troubling injuries,

Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation Clinics of North America, 1999
There are many inherent difficulties in the collection of epidemiologic ski data, but important trends have been identified. Further investigation into controllable risk factors is currently in progress in an attempt to reduce injury incidence, along with prophylactic strength training and conditioning programs.

Arbeitsphysiologie, 1950
During skiing a maximum O2-uptake of 5,2l/min was recorded with a trained student as a subject; with two other elite skiers 5 liters O2 per minute was found. A trained female subject showed an O2-intake of 4,17l/min and an other female subject had an O2-intake of 64,5 cc/min/kg body weight, presumably the highest values ever recorded in women.

Ski Jumping Takeoff in a Wind Tunnel With Skis
Journal of Applied Biomechanics, 2011The effect of skis on the force–time characteristics of the simulated ski jumping takeoff was examined in a wind tunnel. Takeoff forces were recorded with a force plate installed under the tunnel floor. Signals from the front and rear parts of the force plate were collected separately to examine the anteroposterior balance of the jumpers during the ...
