Measurements were performed with eyes open and closed in order to assess the influence of visual signal on reaction of body posture control system to change in position level. The authors tried to define if basic anthropometric parameters had any influence on reaction of body posture control system to small height change. Results. Results were compared with results obtained in classical perturbation test performed in people who do not practice judo and in judoists. Conclusions.
