All surfed waves were scored, and each athlete\u2019s best 2 were used for their total heat score. Speed values were extracted by global positioning system and adjusted by <jats:italic>Z<\/jats:italic> score. Squat jump, countermovement jump, and drop jump were executed. Anthropometric variables and 1-repetition maximum (1RM) in the half squat were measured. Pearson product\u2013moment correlation was used to analyze the relationships. <jats:italic><jats:bold>Results<\/jats:bold>:<\/jats:italic> Height had a significant (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\u2009&lt;\u2009.05) inverse association with speed indicators (<jats:italic>r<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u2009\u2212.36 to\u2009\u2212\u2009.68), and body mass index had a moderate association with maximum wave speed of the highest score. Significant correlations with moderate to large magnitudes were found between maximum speed and vertical jumps (<jats:italic>r<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u2009.46 to .56), average speed and vertical jumps (<jats:italic>r<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u2009.48 to .59), and both maximum and average speed with 1RM (<jats:italic>r<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u2009.52\u2013.53). Athletes\u2019 best score and total heat score showed moderate to large associations with vertical jumps and 1RM (<jats:italic>r<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u2009.48\u2013.64), whereas second scores were correlated with the reactive strength index of the drop jump (<jats:italic>r<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u2009.48) and 1RM (<jats:italic>r<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u2009.51). <jats:italic><jats:bold>Conclusions<\/jats:bold>:<\/jats:italic> Shorter surfers with lower center of gravity and those with superior lower-limb strength and power achieved greater speed and higher scores. Accordingly, surf coaches may consider prescribing dynamic strength and balance training based on an athlete\u2019s profile to improve performance.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1123\/ijspp.2023-0520","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,12,5]],"date-time":"2024-12-05T17:51:22Z","timestamp":1733421082000},"page":"91-98","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["The Influence of Lower-Limb Strength and Power on the Speed and Heat Results of Professional Brazilian Surfers"],"prefix":"10.1123","volume":"20","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-6728-7806","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Pedro C.","family":"Souza","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Santos High Performance Surfing Center, Santos, SP, Brazil"},{"name":"Sport Sciences Laboratory, Department of Human Movement Sciences, Federal University of S\u00e3o Paulo, Santos, SP, Brazil"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-2257-078X","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Ricardo L.F.","family":"Guerra","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Sport Sciences Laboratory, Department of Human Movement Sciences, Federal University of S\u00e3o Paulo, Santos, SP, Brazil"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"100","reference":[{"issue":"1","key":"r1","series-title":"Sports Med","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"55","DOI":"10.2165\/00007256-200535010-00005","article-title":"Physiological aspects of surfboard riding performance","volume":"35","author":"Mendez-Villanueva A","year":"2005","unstructured":"Mendez-Villanueva A, Bishop D.
