Free-throw in basketball is extremely dynamic and sensitive to the error of the joint angle through the motion. The purpose of this research is to design a trajectory which is robust against the initial error of the joints using inverse dynamics analysis and sensitivity analysis of motion capture data of free-throw. For those analyses, the dominant joint angle for free-throw is identified. The free-throw data of some participants are acquired, and they are evaluated and classified as novice or expert. The sensitivity of the experts shows small value comparing novice one, and a trajectory which has lower sensitivity is designed for the novice.
