FUN FACTS
5000 years ago, skiing was a mode of transportation for people living in snow covered areas. Skiing was even used during wartime to aid in the movement of soldiers. Today, however, skiing is widely popular as a recreational and professional sport, with numerous variations including downhill alpine, aerial skiing, the ski jump, slalom, and cross country. Skiers constantly challenge themselves to set new records in height and speed. Most notably in recent history was the record set by Harry Egger in 1999, with a skiing speed of 154 miles per hour!
