Biomechanical comparison of pin and freeride ski mountaineering bindings in recreational skiers

These findings suggest that while biomechanical differences between binding types are statistically significant, their small differences and effect sizes are unlikely to have practical relevance for uphill travel performance in recreational skiers under laboratory settings.

Abstract

These findings suggest that while biomechanical differences between binding types are statistically significant, their small differences and effect sizes are unlikely to have practical relevance for uphill travel performance in recreational skiers under laboratory settings.
