Abstract

Kayakers have traditionally used a fixed seat but in 2005 a “swivel seat”, able to rotate in the horizontal plane, was approved for use in races. To date only limited data are available with regard to how the swivel seat influences technique and performance. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of the swivel seat on kinematics during maximal intensity paddling on an ergometer.
