Abstract

The 110 meter high hurdles race is one of the most exciting races in the sport of track and field. The goal for the hurdler is to sprint as fast as he can and get to the finish line in the least amount of time as possible, remembering that “they are sprinters first and hurdlers second” (Bowerman, 1991). Hurdle clearance can be delineated into three phases: the take-off phase, flight phase, and the landing phase (Tidow, 1989). The objective of this pilot study was to establish and analyze those kinematic and dynamic parameters that define an efficient hurdle clearance technique. Test runs from starting blocks with the clearance of five hurdles, set in accordance with the competition rules, were carried out on a sample of two male hurdlers both are junior national athletes. Kinematic analysis was performed with quintic system. .It was found that efficient hurdle clearance technique is generated by the following factors: The contact time of take-off, an optimal ratio of the braking phase to propulsion phase of take-off, the ratio of the point of take-off to landing, flight time, short braking phase in landing, high position of the centre of gravity (CG) at landing and minimal reduction in the horizontal force of the CG at landing
