Abstract:
:In swimming relay races, various start techniques are performed by swimmers, but it remains unclear which technique leads to a better start performance. Therefore, the purpose of the present study was to compare the kinematic characteristics of different relay start techniques with the new starting block Omega OSB11. Eleven international youth swimmers were filmed during 1) no step with parallel feet, 2) no step with separated feet and 3) one-step starts and their centre of mass kinematics calculated with 2D-DLT algorithms. Results indicate that differences between techniques were detected in the spatiotemporal parameters of the block and aerial start phases (e.g., initial and take-off positions, entry height, preparation and changeover times) and in selected parameters of the underwater phase (e.g., emersion time and distance, underwater time and distance). However, no statistical effects were found in 5 m, 10 m and 15 m start times, nor in horizontal take-off velocity, despite an observed trend for the one-step start to be superior to the non-step techniques. These results suggest that differences between relay techniques could rely more on the swimmer's body posture (angular kinematics) on the block, flight and underwater phases than on the centre of mass linear kinematics.
