Best 30 / Worst 30 for Wrist Safety - July 2001

The best (lowest rank number) are the safest for the wrist; the worst are dangerous.  The macro criterion of Wrist Safety comprises the evaluation criteria of 1.5*Wrist Crunch, Moment, Torque, and 0.5*Flex.  Each of these evaluation criteria (Torque, etc.) produced composite rankings when the results under the five benchmark conditions were compiled, weighted, summed, and sorted.  These composite rankings then were compiled, weighted, summed, and sorted to produce rankings under the macro criterion of Wrist Safety.
