Skiing on snow is a popular winter sport that involves gliding down snow-covered slopes on skis, which are long, flat runners attached to boots. Originating in Scandinavia as a means of transportation, it has evolved into both a recreational activity and a competitive sport. There are various types of snow skiing, including alpine (downhill skiing on groomed runs), cross-country (navigating flat or rolling terrain), and freestyle (performing tricks and jumps). Skiers use lifts or gondolas to reach higher elevations before descending. Proper equipment and clothing, such as insulated jackets and helmets, are essential for safety and comfort. Skiing is widely enjoyed for its exhilarating rush, the beauty of snowy landscapes, and its physical benefits, such as improving cardiovascular health, strength, and balance.
