Abstract Summary
The purpose of this research study was to examine postural control strategies used by people who participate in boarding sports on stable and unstable surfaces. Eleven healthy young adults (6 F) with boarding experience and 13 controls (6 F) were recruited. Participants underwent 2 testing components: 1) Neurocom Balance Manager, 2) Vicon motion capture. Results showed that Boarders were reliant on somatosensory information and willing to explore their environment when the support surface was unstable for maintenance of postural control.
