Sažetak
The aim of this research was to determine the influence of the length of skis and ski boots on learning basics of alpine skiing. Included were 178 ski beginners (132 males and 46 females). Initially, subjects' body height and feet length were measured, and based on the measures, adequate ski equipment was chosen. Afterwards they were included in 10-days alpine ski school where they learned skiing according to precisely defined program. Upon completion of ski school, participants demonstrated snowplough, basic turn, parallel turn and short turn in front of five independent judges. We found statistically significant negative correlation between ski length and average grade for element snowplough (r=-0, 19). Moreover, significant correlation was determined between feet length and average grade for parallel turn (r=-0, 16) and length of ski boots and element parallel turn (r=- 0, 20). Results suggest how ski equipment (skies and ski boots of adequate length) influence the speed and level of learning basics of alpine skiing.
