To date, there is no empirical evidence suggesting greater jump heights or cushioned landings when using figure skating (FS) blades of different mass and design. This study examined the effect of lightweight (Gold Seal Revolution from John Wilson) and traditional (Apex Supreme from Jackson Ultima and Volant from Riedell) blades, a new prototype bla...

... the trials, three-dimensional kinematics of the right lower extremity (as FS landings are performed on single leg) and trunk were investigated using a motion capture system (Oqus 4, Qualisys AB, Gothenburg, Sweden: twelve cameras, 250 Hz). Sixty-six passive reflective markers were placed on anatomical landmarks on the participant (Figure 1). Lower limb markers were placed bilaterally on the medial and lateral aspects of the knee, anterior superior iliac spine, greater trochanter and on the posterior superior iliac spine. ...
