Background: According to literature, little is known regarding the effects of orthotic management flatfoot on kinetics vertical jump. Objectives: To compare kinetic and temporal events two-legged jumping take-off from a force plate for heading ball in normal flexible subjects with without insole. Study design: A functional based interventional controlled study. Methods: Random sampling method was employed draw control group 15 foot subjects. platform used record jump shots. Results: Results indicate that insole did not lead significant effect anterior–posterior mediolateral directions (p > 0.05). related direction maximum due stance duration revealed differences between < 0.05) no adoption Conclusions: These results suggest use an led improved time decrease magnitude at as main feature function. Clinical relevance Adoption design shoe–foot interface support athletes, enabling them develop more effective terms ground reaction similar
