Influence d ’une basse pression des pneumatiques sur les performances chronométrées chez des handibasketteurs

Conclusion The rolling distances in the deceleration test were less with 5bar. Low pressure decreases sprint performance in straight line. The rolling resistances could explain these results. The slides observed on the parquet with 9bar do not allow to confirm the results of the sprint. Low reliability measured by Étoile test would be related to variations in different displacements, such as stops and half-turns. The prospects would be to confirm on a synthetic floor and with other disciplines as wheelchair rugby or tennis.
