On the basis of data gathered during a series of Pre-Olympic Trials and the World Championships, both held at Cagliari (Italy) in 1983 and 1986, respectively, the somatotypes of athletes practicing windsurfing were studied. The sample is composed of 79 male athletes: 22 Sardinians, 31 mainland Italians, and 26 Europeans. The Heath-Carter anthropometric method (1967) was used to somatotype the individuals under study. Both the total sample as well as the three subsamples are characterized by almost identical average values of the three components. A subsample of athletes was formed, who had obtained important performances in their carriers (victories in World, European and Italian championships, participation in the Olympic Games etc.). In this group of top athletes it was seen that the best results in windsurfing are obtained when there is an even development of the three components (2.57-2.68-2.97) or a slight ectomorphic predominance.
基于分别于1983年和1986年在意大利卡利亚里举行的一系列奥运会前测试赛和世界锦标赛期间收集的数据，对从事帆板运动的运动员的体型进行了研究。样本由79名男性运动员组成：22名撒丁岛人、31名意大利大陆人以及26名欧洲人。采用希思-卡特人体测量法（1967年）对所研究的个体进行体型分类。整个样本以及三个子样本的三个组成部分的平均值几乎相同。选取了一组在其职业生涯中取得重要成绩（在世界、欧洲和意大利锦标赛中获胜、参加奥运会等）的运动员子样本。在这组顶尖运动员中可以看出，当三个组成部分均匀发展（2.57 - 2.68 - 2.97）或稍有外胚层型优势时，帆板运动能取得最佳成绩。
