Kike's text on Ski

SKI

Skiing is a recreational activity and competitive winter sport in which the participant uses skis to glide on snow.

Modern skiing has evolved from beginnings in Scandinavia, it may have been practiced as early as 600 BC in what is now China.

The word "ski" is one of a handful of words Norway has exported to the international community. It comes from the Old Norse word "skíð".Asymmetrical skis were used at least in northern Finland and Sweden up until the late 1800s .

Early skiers used one long pole or spear. The first depiction of a skier with two ski poles dates
to 1741. Until the mid-1800s skiing was primarily used for transport, and since then has become a recreation and sport. Ski races were held in Norway during the 18th century.

The Nordic disciplines include cross-country skiing and ski jumping.
