Figure 7 shows the overall average rope load during cutting for each of the skis fordominant and non-dominant turns. Statistical analysis suggests that there was asignificant difference between the skis (p=0.0244). Ski D resulted in the highest averagefor both dominant and non-dominant turns, 2.15 and 2.05BW. Ski C resulted in thelowest average for both dominant and non-dominant turns, 2.08 and 1.93BW.Furthermore, Ski C had a significantly lower average than Ski D (p=0.0168). The errorbars shown in the figure represent the calculated upper and lower 95% confidenceintervals from the statistical analysis.3Rope Load (x Body Weight)2.521.510.5Ski ASki BSki CSki D0Dom Non-DomFigure 7: Ski’s overall average turn peak rope load for both dominant and non-dominant turns.
