- Abstract
Excellent results do not depend solely on sportsmen's physical condition, but also on the sport suit required by a specific sports discipline. From the aerodynamic point of view, a skijumper suit can be, next to the jumping skis, regarded as the main part of the equipment. The jumpsuit shape and size need to be individually adapted to each ski-jumper taking into account precise requirements by FIS (Fédération Internationale de Ski). Constructing a ski-jumper suit is a demanding process, since the FIS rules change annually in order to assure ski-jumpers safe yet competitive ski jumps. Modern technologies enable rapid and precise development of prototypes of garments by ensuring higher efficiency and accuracy of the construction process. The article presents the development of the prototype of a ski-jumper suit in accordance with the FIS rules. The results demonstrate the process of virtual prototyping of a ski-jumper suit and a comparison with a real jumpsuit.
