Custom measuring sticks of NORDIC SPORTS, possible?

Why customize the length of your sticks?

Why not have "their measures of sticks", with their coefficients of reference understood as "Summary of measures that can be used" in each of the techniques of cross country skiing and Nordic walking, as well as cyclists have the opportunity to have their own "frame "custom: and truly regarded as" Individual Reference "?

Have you ever thought that, as well as for cyclists, even the skiers, Nordic Walker and Rollerski have "Limitations and / or functional benefits" deriving their equipment, and above all the "sticks" and that these measures may have "PERSONALIZED"?

In cycling, it is now known for years that the focus on finding an "optimum seat position" is a guarantee of benefit to the cyclist, who look beyond its maximum performance, also requires more immediate short of the target aimed primarily at health and therefore the "pleasure" to walk their bike out for satisfaction "personal".

Each "primary objective" is often addressed (and depended on) from 'EFFICIENCY want that sport. In the reported case of the cyclist and then its efficiency goal is certainly achieved by the study of "its great location and functional cycling."

) si ha la necessità di prestare attenzione all' Efficenza e Funzionalità , in funzione di quello che lo Sciatore vuole. As mentioned also in "= NORDIC NORDIC SPORTS SPORTS", Cross-Country Skiing - Nordic Walking and Rollerski (not to mention anything else, the "Ski Mountaineering - Alpine skiing and trekking") you need to pay attention to 'Efficiency and Functionality in function of what the skier wants. And the "proper materials" are the "subjects" of his attention .. That of course support the preparation, amplifying or sometimes frustrating.

For the "Materials", surely the many technical parameters, mechanical, structural and aesthetic, are among the first ones are always considered, by making "reference" parameters indicative of "moderate / general", as some concern "RECOMMENDED MEASURES "for their use ...

l'altezza, la durezza, la resistenza alla compressione e torsione e quindi alla resistenza alla rottura sotto le varie forze inerziali, degli Sci, Attacchi e dei Bastoncini. Among these "benchmarks", you can find for the sports of slips and not only the height, hardness, resistance to compression and torsion and then the breaking strength under various inertial forces of skis, bindings and of sticks. And still other parameters enrich, embellish and enhance the quality of the equipment.

At some point, however, you get to ask the "choice of measures" that can be as close as needed "Personal", denoting that the "Reference Data", often suggested by statistical surveys, obtained from experience in the field or from theory are often not reliable. These data, in fact this time, are defined in an empirical subjective and imprecise alternatives .... Generalizing for example parameters of 0.88 or 0.90, multiplied by its height, to determine the extent of the pole for the skating technique . Rather than the values ​​of 0.83 or 0.84, to define that for the classical technique, or even 0.66, to choose one for Nordic Walking.

Values ​​definitely interesting and correct if taken into account as a "theoretical framework", the practice is sometimes included the requirement that these are and will remain, but that there are very few alternatives.

For these reasons, it goes on to analyze "the height of Bastocino" as an element / parameter important for the skiing, trying to investigate and verify any of the alternatives, compared to the theoretical values ​​mentioned above.

Osor the sliding sports like skiing, you can see how the tool "CREATE" definitely a "genuine link" between the subject and the external environment is precisely the "sticks".

In fact, once determined its position on a voluntary (or even in some cases unintentionally) by the skier to the ground / snow, it "binds" the general action which can take skiers and then determines the movement that it can be done in a "Positive / Functional / productive or negative / dysfunctional / counterproductive" ....

This "constraint", created voluntarily or involtariamente, is in fact the most distinctive among the other "constraints", such as (for example), created between the attacks and the boots / shoes bottom.

This "constraint" obtained with the use of sticks, used in combination by pushing action of the arms, allowing the movement of the "body of the skier," in the space / environment as a function of energy / force used and the other mechanisms physical, biomechanical and other dynamic, which exist as it progresses.

And 'to specify that all this is done thanks to the support and active intervention of the legs, which added another "constraint" generated by the contact between Ski and Snow (for the edge of Skiing, Skating and during T. Wax, when T Classic), and combined contribution of the weight of the skier who has taken on the same poles, in fact determines the general action of the "movement of the skier."

In many ways it knows well those who practice, but also the ski mountaineering trekking and Nordic Walking, what is important to define the length of his stick.

Especially the focus on the measurement of B, is posed by those who practice the Nordic Walking activities, that even if no positive action dynamic driving, that does not cause a slip, puts their attention equally "in the action determining the stick ", which generates more or less" effectiveness "of the motor gesture, as a function of its goal, plain, up or down ...

As you may have a "parameter" personal and perhaps more real?

After analyzing the situation and motivations, the possible response was to try to create a protocol with a "Customizable Card", according to some "personal anthropometric data."

” Hence the name "Nordic Sports in Customization of Clubs" - "Poles NordicSport Personals -"
