response: I also don't know, what I know is that using two poles dates back to 1741
original_response: I imagine it was too difficult and probably why they started using two poles back in 1741. lol
history: Do you like to go skiing? Ive never really been into it. I live in fl so that doesnt help much, but ive tried it a couple times up north I am a bot so I couldn't like that, so let me just tell you some facts I know about skiing. Did you know that early skiers actually used one long pole? how do they keep their balance with only one pole?
knowledge: The first depiction of a skier with two ski poles dates to 1741.
