摘要：The aim of this paper was to rank the most important didacticexercises for teaching the basic ski turn. Participants included 307ski instructors and assistants teaching at different professional skilevels and coming from different countries. Participants were asked,via online survey, to rate the significance of exercises included in theformed model of the most important didactic exercises for teachingthe basic ski turn. This model consisted of six different variables.The participants were divided in three groups based on their skiingability level. In accordance with the study objectives, the rank-sumvalues (SR) of the most important didactic exercises for teachingthe basic ski turn were calculated, as well as the appropriate empiriclevel of significance (p), which was calculated by using a nonparametricequivalent to post-hoc analysis, i.e. the Kruskal-Wallistest (H-test). Statistically significant differences were obtainedbetween the values of ranking the most important didactic exercisesfor teaching the basic ski turn (H=138,62; p<0,001). The results ofthis study provide an accurate and scientifically-founded didacticsetting for teaching the basic ski turn. This study sets foundationsfor the possible direction of future studies in terms of constructingmeasuring instruments. The practical application should providebetter selection, as well as wider choice of modalities and trainingexercises in the process of training alpine skiers of various ages anddifferent skiing ability levels.
