This study aimed to evaluate the potential association with anthropometry and upper-body pulling strength with sprint kinematics of competitive surfers. Ten competitive male surfers (23.9 ± 6.8 years, 177.0 ± 6.5 cm, 72.2 ± 2.4 kg) were assessed for stature, mass, arm span, ∑ 7 site skinfold thickness, pronated pull-up strength, and sprint paddling performance from a stationary start to 15 m. Pearson correlation analysis, and independent t-tests were used to compare potential differences between the slower and faster group of sprint paddlers. Strong associations were found between relative (total kilograms lifted per athlete mass) upper-body pulling strength and sprint paddling time to 5, 10, and 15 m, and peak sprint paddling velocity (r = 0.94, 0.93, 0.88, 0.66, respectively, p < 0.05) and relative upper-body pulling strength was found to be superior (p < 0.05) in the faster group, with large effect (d = 1.88). The results of this study demonstrate a strong association between relative upper-body pulling strength and sprint paddling ability in surfers. Strength and conditioning coaches working with competitive surfers should implement strength training with surfers, including an emphasis on developing relative strength, because this may have a strong influence on sprint paddling performance.
本研究旨在评估竞技冲浪者的人体测量学和上半身拉力与短跑运动学之间的潜在关联。10 名竞技男性冲浪者（23.9 ± 6.8 岁，177.0 ± 6.5 厘米，72.2 ± 2.4 公斤）接受了身高、体重、臂展、∑ 7 部位皮褶厚度、旋后拉力和从静止开始到 15 米的短跑划水性能评估。使用 Pearson 相关分析和独立 t 检验比较了短跑划水速度较慢和较快组之间的潜在差异。相对（每个运动员体重举起的总公斤数）上半身拉力与 5 米、10 米和 15 米的短跑划水时间以及峰值短跑划水速度之间存在很强的关联（r = 0.94、0.93、0.88、0.66，分别，p < 0.05），并且相对上半身拉力在速度较快的组中表现更好（p < 0.05），具有较大的效应（d = 1.88）。本研究的结果表明，相对上半身拉力与冲浪者的短跑划水能力之间存在很强的关联。与竞技冲浪者合作的力量和体能教练应该为冲浪者实施力量训练，包括强调发展相对力量，因为这可能对短跑划水性能有很强的影响。
