Vertical Takeoff Acceleration Asymmetry

A measure of the difference in Vertical Takeoff Acceleration (VTA) between feet. High VTA asymmetry (>15%) occurs when one side leaves the ground at a faster rate than the other. This can mean either poorer push ability on one side, or an alternative protective strategy on one side.

Asymmetry measures are best used in conjunction with a baseline for each individual, as every person has inherent asymmetries.
