Note: (αER) – error of the angle of flexion in foot at ankle joint; (αER) – error of the angle of bend in tail of monofin; (βER) – error of the angle of attack of distal part of fin; (βER) – error of the angle of attack of entire surface of fin; (SF) mean stroke frequency; (SL) mean stroke length; (AMP, AMP, AMP,AMP) amplitude of displacement of the segments analyzed.*Statistically significant correlation coefficients (p = 0.05).
