Alpine skiing techniques related to faster skiing have been required by many skiers, especially alpine ski racers. The evaluation of alpine skier's technique is mainly qualitative, and the quantitative evaluation in the research is limited. There are some theories about why the skis can slide on snow surface (Joly, 1887; Bowden & Hughes, 1939; Tusima, 1977). But it is hard to define the final result. This is one of the reasons when the skiers and the coaches are talking about skiing technique qualitatively. Therefore, the measurement of a skier on actual snow slopes is important for the quantitative evaluation and the development of the applied training methods, and itis necessary to measure and analyze some skiing techniques that seem to be effective. In this study, I will try to evaluate quantitatively for alpine skiing technique related to improving timings by measurement of actual skiing by using the sensor Systems.
