history: Skiing seems really difficult, but interesting. Do you know much about skiing? Skiing can be a means of transport, a recreational activity or a competitive winter sport in which the participant uses skis Hm, alright. Do you know anything about the history of skiing? Not the history but there are many types of skiing event competitions that the IOC and FIS recognizes. Okay, what are some of the different types? Can't help on that but I can tell you that at the bottom of a short ski was plain or had animal skin covering it while a long ski had animal fat treated on it similar to modern ski waxing. Okay I don't think that's what I asked, but it's an interesting fact either way.
knowledge: Cross-country skiing is widely practiced as a sport and recreational activity; however, some still use it as a means of transportation.
