Abstract

Abstract. Figure skating is a sport with different modalities. In most of them, jumps are usually the most difficult elements and need to be high enough so to complete several rotations. The aim of the present study was to analyse the kinetic variables and the vertical stiffness of eight andalusian female figure skaters aged 14-18 years old, comparing them to a group of eight sedentary female subjects of the same age. Flight height and the following kinetic variables during a countermovement jump (CMJ) were analyzed: maximal displacement of the centre of mass, peak force, average force, acceleration impulse, length of the acceleration impulse, average power, peak power, vertical stiffness, vertical stiffness normalized to body mass and maximum downward velocity during the eccentric phase. Results showed that figure skaters had flight heights greater than sedentary subjects and they also exhibited greater values of power and acceleration impulse, which means that they have higher explosive strength. However, average force developed during the concentric phase was not significantly higher in figure skaters. Further research comparing figure skaters with other athletes is needed, with special focus on the analysis of vertical stiffness and maximum downward velocity, so to clarify whether figure skaters make a good use of the stretch-shortening cycle; also to understand how to develop higher average force during the concentric phase of jumps
