Skiing is one of the most popular sports in the world. According to
recent estimation, about one hundred million of people ski regularly or
occasionally.
Sliding across the snow on skis is also one of the most ancient
methods of transport known to the man. It has demonstrated that men were
already traveling across the snow by means of primitive skis before the
invention of the wheel. In the Asiatic region of Altai and in Scandinavia,
for example, the remains of skis have been found which dated back to
4,000 BC. Further evidence is supplied by ancient cave paintings which
depict people skiing, and a Norwegian saga which tells the story of an
invasion of its territory 8,000 years ago by a tribe of skiers who came from
the north.
Nowadays, skiing, apart from a sport, has become a big industry and a
notable feature of leisure culture. Ski resorts and all the activity that they
generate is the main source of wealth in many mountain regions, which
were previously remote and inaccessible. And far from its once elitist
image, skiing is now enjoyed by an increasingly broader spectra of society.
