Surprisingly, solo bamboo drifting, which originated from indigenous boating in southwestern China, has evolved into a new and captivating sport. This research focuses on the competitive aspect of solo bamboo drifting, examining the oar-rowing strategies and techniques through which top athletes achieve success. The study aims to provide evidence-based training advice for participants by analysing the performance of five athletes selected based on their results in a 60-meter straight track event. Research methods include literature review, observation, video analysis, and statistical mathematics. The Dartfish sports technique video analysis system is employed to scrutinize precise movements and compare them to evaluate pole-rowing techniques. Findings indicate that athletes' positioning on the bamboo, the angle of pole entry into the water, rowing power and speed management, and bamboo direction control are crucial technical aspects affecting competitive outcomes. Correct posture and efficient pole-rowing techniques minimize water drag and enhance bamboo velocity. Effective force management ensures bamboo stability and rowing efficiency. Yawing phenomena during competition disrupt rowing rhythm and stability, hindering performance. The study conducts a comparative analysis of the pole-rowing tactics of three athletes, identifying differences in movement intricacies and effectiveness throughout the rowing cycle. The findings provide a scientific foundation for future training, offering specific recommendations such as using advanced technology for technical monitoring, enhancing physical training for better rowing efficiency, and practicing direction control under various conditions. These guidelines aim to help athletes optimize their techniques and improve competition performance. This research not only provides theoretical support for technical training in solo bamboo drifting but also offers practical instructions for the sport's scientific advancement and broader adoption.

The advent of cinema brought with it its use as a propaganda device with which to transmit ideals and doctrines. As a result, newsreels and cinema documentaries were born with the aim of showing the «most relevant» news of the country and abroad, the former with a shorter duration. In this study, the Spanish NO-DO and «Sucesos Argentinos» are used as primary sources to interpret the images and imaginaries that were projected between 1943 and 1955 on female physical culture. The intention is to understand the official discourse of both political regimes on what Argentinean and Spanish society should be like, especially by questioning those meanings about women. In total, 69 issues of NO-DO and 14 editions of «Sucesos Argentinos» have been found which aim to show female physical culture in this period. The female physical culture shown in both newsreels was aimed at strengthening women’s bodies so that they could carry out their «natural functions» (mother, wife, housewife), as well as highlighting their «inferiority» in relation to men through lower impact activities and the homogenization of bodies through clothing, and the performance of the same exercises in synchrony. And all this in countries with different regimes, but which, in the end, coincided.
