The Contribution of Ski Poles to Aerodynamic Drag in Alpine Skiing

The present study was designed to determine the contribution of the cross-sectional area of the ski poles (S<sub>p</sub>) to the total aerodynamic drag during alpine skiing. At three different wind speeds in a wind tunnel, 10 skiers assumed typical alpine skiing postures (high, middle, a...
