Heel riser height and slope gradient influence the kinematics and kinetics of ski mountaineering-A laboratory study.

The pole angle at initial contact was greater at 8% compared to 24% gradient ( p < 0.001), but not affected by riser height, although a notable trend is apparent ( p = 0.07; eta p 2 = 0.14).

However, the almost significant mean change of the force impulse from low to high riser height over all gradients was −4%, revealing its relevance with a large effect ( eta p 2 = 0.16).
