Abstract
The ability to brake with the stride leg while throwing is critical for fast ball velocity. Braking can be measured using both kinetics and kinematics (Kageyama et al., 2014); it may be reflected in different variables for various throwing styles. Distal rearfoot power encompasses several metrics related to throwing performance. It is calculated using ground reaction forces and 6-degree of freedom foot kinematics, and quantifies the energy absorbed and returned by the foot-shoe complex (Matijevich et al., 2022). Thus, it could be affected by a player’s footwear. No research has investigated the effect of shoe upper on throwing performance.
