Long Jump with a Sport Prosthesis | Dr Johannes Funken

Lecture 4 of the Sports Biomechanics Lecture Series #SportsBiomLS
Johannes Funken presents a comparison of elite long jump biomechanics between athletes with and without a below the knee prosthesis. This comparison includes both kinetic and kinematic parameters. Discussions include whether athletes with a below the knee sports prosthesis are at an advantage or a disadvantage.
