Skiing is one of my favorite sports. I usually go in the winter with my dad and my sister in tahoe.
When you go skiing, you need special gear.
Some of the things you need are:
Here is a list of ski resorts I have been to:
There are more than one different type of skiing. There is cross-country skiing and down hill skiing. The difference between cross-country and down hill skiing is the terrain and also the gear. The difference between the terrain is usually flat and there is not much going down hill. When down hill skiing, there are usually steep hill to ski down. The difference between the gear is the skis. When cross-country skiing, your bindings are able to come up off the skis so you can sort of walk on your skis unlike down hill skiing where you have your bindings fully connected so you can ski down the hill.
If you are at a ski resort, I recommend finding a terrain park at the resort. A terrain park is a area at a ski resort where the are different kinds of jumps and mounds of snow. the jumps are 3d metal spapes that you can ski on and then jump off of. Once I went to a terrain park and there were jumps the size of houses! it was amazing. Some really good skiers are able to do front flips and back flips off the really big jumps. its so cool!
And dont forget to get some hot chocolate while your there!
