Among traditional Chinese physical educational cultures, Wushu is the only avtivity that has became one of the competition events in the Asian Games. The Wushu jumping-front-kick is an important jumping action in Wushu competition, and the height of the jump that the athlete completes is a very important element to evaluate the athlete's performance by the Rules for International Wushu Routine Competition. Having a well skill of run-up of the jumping-front-kick will effectually enhance the height of jump. The purpose of this study was to analyze the biome-chanical characteristics and then to diagnose the skill of the run-up of the Wushu umping-front-kick for elite Wushu athletes of Taiwan. Six elite male Wushu athletes of Taiwan were served as the subjects in this study. Their mean (± S.D.) age, height, and weight were 20.0 ± 2.8 years, 167.9 ± 6.0 cm, and 62.0 ± 5.0 kgw, respectively. Peak Performance Video Motion Analysis System (120Hz) was used to record, digitize, and calculate the biomechanical parameters in the run-up of the Wushu jumping-front-kick. The results indicated: (1) The best athlete's center of gravity was getting lower in step by step, but the other athletes were opposing the best athlete's performance. (2) The maximum horizontal velocity of center of gravity was usually appeared before the takeoff step that was different with the advice from the book of "Fundamentals of Wushu" (1988) that indicated the running speed must be faster from step to step in the three steps approaching skill. (3) This study suggested that Wushu players should lower their center of gravity step by step, and the trunk should be leaning backward before the last step to increase the right hip angle in order to bring out a optimum angle of right knee during the initial takeoff phase.
